The Missouri, Kansas & Eastern
railway has continued to show
constantly increasing business. The
connection OF its st. Louis terminal'
with the Union passenger stat'oI
was completed and opened for trafli'
March 16, 1895, sirce which date it
passenger trains have been able tt
connect with all the other lines cen
tering here. The freight traffic o
st. Louis and points beyond have
developed in the most gratifying
manner, and has demonstrated the
paramount Importance and value o.
the st. Louis division. A very close
relation between the two corpora
tions is established by reason of the
ownership OF the entire capital stoch
of the Missouri, Kansas & Ea teri
Railway Company by the parent
company, but a still more n,imate
and permanent connection could be
established by a legal consolidation
of the two companies, authority fol
which through an exchange o stock
has been granted by the stock
holders of the Missouri, Kansas 6
