AUSTIN, Trx., Sept. 24.—The State to-
day, through its Attorney General,
brought suit against the Puilman Com-
pany for the collection of its permit fe?,
amounting to $100,OtO. In case the com-
pany refuaej to pay the fee the, State
asks a decroa of ouster.
Ever sine? It has been loing business
In Texas the Pullman Company haj
never tiled with the state Us articles of
incorporation or taicen out a permit to Jo
business in Texas. The suit brought by
the Attorney General points out that tho
laws of 1889 require that every corpora*
tion file with the Secretary of State its
articles of incorporation and take out a
permit to do business.
A tee has always be«»n en irgect since
that year tor taking out a peimit, but
the charter te« bill of the last Legisla-
ture greatly increased the i'»?c now due
the State, according to the petition. The
Pullman *.'on»pany is a $lou,ouo,i;uo cor-
poration, and the charter fee bill of the
last 'Legislature requires that the follow-
ing fee be charged for a permit to a
foreign corporation: Fifty dollars for the
first of its authorized capital
stock an.1 $10 additional for each $10,000
or fractional part thereof. This would
require the payment of $100,CK> should tho
Pullman Company be compelled to take
out a permit.
While it has been generally known that
tne Pullman Company did not have a
permit to do business in the State it is
sain there had been talk ot bringing the
suits some rme ago. but that the com-
pany had threatened to withdraw from
the State it the suits were oKKight.
The suit eculd in no way affect inter-
state commerce and could aflect Pullman
cars doinj business exclusively within
the State. Suit is brought in tho names
of Attorney General H. V. Davidson and
Claude Pollard. Assistant Attorney Gen-
eral. Heln? incorporated under the laws
ot Illinois, service is asked on P. J. law-
less, the representative of the Pullman
Company in Austin.
The Pullman Company will probably
claim, as it has in Other rases, that it
leases its cars to the railroads who oper-
ate lhem. It in contender! ny the State
tHat the puiirfan cars are not operated
by the rallrords, but by employes of th*
Pullman Company, which company regu-
lates the rare tor accommodations in its
parlor, sle*ptnj and dining ears.
It is alleged in the petition tb;it the
Pullman Company has no power to
transact business In the 8tar.\ and sin™
ISffT and for i long time before has been
exercising rights in 'lexas, tor which it
had no authority. While the company
collects tor services every year an aggre-
gate or SBSlMNja, it has not paid its charter
lee and, it is alleged, openly and avow-
edly refines to do so. The company is
cited to rppf.ai* in court and show by
what right it is exercising ns corporate
authority in Texas "
The kstate ask?: that it be adjudged bv
court that the company has no au-
the
thority ot law tor the performance of it.*
corporate acts and that the company br>
ousted from the state.
Suits ire pending, brought by the Rail-
road Commission and the Attorney Gen-
eral, against the Pullman Company for
the reduction of Pullman rates.

CLARK'S TENTH ANNUAL CRCISE
Feb. «. OS. 70 days, by specially char-
FRANK R. CLARK
James Building. New York.
Daily Express Austin Bureau.
AUSTIN, Tex., Sept. 24.—The Attorney
General late this evening filed suit
against the Western Union Telegraph
Company to oust it from tlie State or to
compel it to pay its charter fee for
doing business In Texas. The suit is
identical wita that filed by the Attorney
General thi? morning against the i'ull-
man Company.
The State alleges that the Western
Union is organized under the laws of
New York; that the corporation laws
require that all corporations organized in
other States must take out a permit
Detore doing tusiness 111 Texas. This
conies unde/ the corporation laws of lJj99,
and since that time and befDre, the peti-
tion says, the company lias been doing
business without a permit.
The Western Union is a £100,000,000 cor-
poration, and under the charter fee bill
it will cost $100,(140 tor the Western
Union to take out a permit in Texas.
The charter fee is $50 for the first $10,000,
and $1) for each additional $10,000 or
fractional part thereot.
The petition is identical in phraseology
with the petition filed against the Pull-
man Company.
Alter stating the charges, tho Stat-?
prays that the said defendant be cited
to answer this petition and be required
to show to the court by what warrant
or authority it exercises within the Stats
ot Texas the corporate right an J power
of receiving, transmitting and delivering
telegraphic messages within the State o?
Texas and receiving compensation there-
tor.
Plaintiff preys that it be adjudged by
the court that the defendant has no
authority ot law tor the performance of
sticli corporate acts as aforesaid, and the
exercise of such corporate powers and
franchises, and the carrying on of said
corporate business within th-* State of
Texas; and that it be decreed and ad-
judged by the court that the defendant
be ousted of and from the exercise
within the said Slate ot Texas of saii
corporate rights and tranehlsos of re-
ceiving. transmitting and delivering,
within tne State ot Texas, of telegraphic
messages and communications and of re-
viving compensation therefor; that it he
enjoined upon final hearing hereof from
turthfr exercising such corporate rights
end franchises and receiving compensa-
tion therefor, and tor costs of suit and
such ot!iar and further relief as it may
be entitl?d to. either in law or in equity.

AUSTIN. Tex., Sept. 24.-—'Tomorrow will
witness the reopening of the State Uni-
versity.
For the last week students have been
pouring; into Austin until at. present the
college buildings and campus and the
streets of the city have again assumed
the air of the educational town.
Registration will be begun by 9 o'clock
a. m. and the registrar, with his force of
assistants, is preparing In every way to
handle tlie hundreds of students as rap-
id I." as opssible.
Every applicant will have dozens of
questions to ask which must he answered,
thus in each case presenting a separate
problem for the faculty to solve. Courses
must be selected, hours arranged, credits
considered and many other things inci-
dent to the coiioge work. Each stage In
the registration will be conducted by sep-
arate officers, and even the verdant
freshman, trudging along with his highly
decorated high school diploma, need have
no fear of becoming confused or lost in
the maze ot requirements, unless unfor-
tunately he is led astray by the numerous
bogus deans, presidents and registrars
that exist in the waggish brains of soph-
omores and whisked away to purchase a
bath ticket or to secure a physical and
mental examination.
This year's attendance will be consider-
ably larger than that of last season, al-
though it cannot fail to be affected by
crop conditions over the State. An unu-
sually large junior law class is expected,
drawn by the improvement in the law
school and the erection of the handsome
law building. These disciples of Black-
stone furnish considerable amusement to
the upper classmen, anil the annual con-
test between this aggregation of young
Jurists and the freshmen is already be-
ginning to brew and bids fair to wax hot
and flcrce.
Each new student is required to present
a certificate of vaccination and creden-
tials as to character, work done and the
like.
Already the corridors are filled each
day with strange faces looking, half in
tear anil wonder, toward the drawn cur-
tain where the registrar and dean sit in
consultation.
Coach Metzenthin Arrives.
Coach Metzenthin, who is also professor
of German, leached this citv last night
and this afternoon donned the football
armour and began the work of developing

itai condition to enter upon the training
ot a team. As t lie Eastern teams opener,
practice he visited several of the large
universities, and will put the Tcxans
through the latest tactics, hoping to
give tiie fanners from Bryan a few early
surprises. However, the Agricultural and
Mechanical team can he looked to for a
hard game, as they will he trained this
season by Chicago's famous half hack
Coach Metzenthin plunged Into tiie
game with his characteristic energy, and
the practice has taken on a new life
rarely seen among Southern players. Mr.
Metzenthin expressed himself as highly
pleased with the prospects and said that
there was little doubt that the State Uni-
versity would this year have a football
team of a different class from all pre-
vious snnads. With plenty of material
lots of hard work and posslblv the right
to play freshmen, the Longhorns stand a
good show to snow under all opponents
The Texan will for the present be ed-
It-d by Fugene Harris, appointed suc-
cessor to D. A. Skinner. Mr. Harris will
be assisted by a board, for the present
consisting of J. A. Davenport, H. L.
