Expert Weckcrly and Jehn 0. Bullitt. The
Pullman Interest was represented uy uoergo
M. Pullman, president of the Parler Car
company, and his legal adviser, Ocneial
Uorace Perter.
Mr. Pullman stated again that the profits
or ills company uiu net new warrant me pay
ment or ?2(i4,000 a year te the Central com
pany for the control or cars In the East, as per
contract. lie therefore asked that the sum
be reduced te tCO.OOO. Tiie Central peeple
had a geed many questions te ask as te why
such a sweeping reduction should be made,
and most or the tlme or the meeting was con
sumed with theso queries and Mr. Pullman's
replies. It appears that the ofllcers or the
Transportation company are net very famil
iar with all of tiie details or the business, as
Ulmnlienn managed bv the Pullman com
pany ever slnce 1870, when the latter leased
all or Its rolling stock and franchises for

then made provides Hint whenever the re
ceipts or the concern shall fail te be sufllcent
for the annual payment of S?2(54,00O the con
tracting parties should coine togcther, nnd,
by mutual agreement, alter the arrangement,
alie discovery of Cjttrlnger's dishonesty has
rather precipitated tills movement en Mr.
Pullman's part, nnd he desires nowtetako

te cither or theso results can be made, it is
necessary that 't'1" Control peeple knew
exactly hew the business has been conducted.
Mr. Pullman was questioned yesterday as te
the condition or the cars, tlielr whoreal'euLs
and as te what has caused the fulling oil in
the profits. He produced books and papers
te answer all of tlicse questions. As a result
or the meeting it was decided te draw up a
formal set of questions, which will bring out

"Had this practlce prevailed en the first

as water is largely the medium of Introduc
