The Globe Democrat of 81. Louis pub
hshcs list of all the principal taxpayers
in that city, with the amount of their
taxable property. From it appears the
somewhat peculiar showing that million
aires are scarce in st. Louis. OF indi-
viduals, only three show up with taxable
property to the value Of million, and
two Of these are dead and the third is a
woman, Mrs. A. II. Allen. Of the banks,
only two have a million of capital. No
individual or bank shows up with as
much as two millions, and no railway or
other corporation of any description
claims taxable property amounting to
anything like n million.
