while. of course. there is more or
less conjecture concerning the Union
depot proposition. there is no room
for contradiction in the proposition
that the passenger trains contribute
more to delay the movement of
freight in Kansas City than all other
causes combined. A great bulk of the
freight has to pass through the pres
ent depot yards, with the result that
freight and, passenger trains are de-
layed beyond all reason. The situa-
ton is going from bad to intolerable
from the standpoint of both the pas
senger and freight interests. There is
nothing that will relieve this situation

During the flood it was demon
strated that trains could, with sufd-
cient facilities, be operated easily and
satisfactorily from the Belt line depot
The plans for a South side depot have
been discussed by officials of nearly all
of the lines, and the only criticism has
been that the plans are too extensive,
that more room than is necessary is
provided in the opipion of some of the
