railroad systems reporting on Iowa
business to the state officials all but
three or four have now made their
returns. The returns. so far as COM
plete, like the earlier returns from
only the larger roads tabulated some
time ago, show that the year 1913 was
very prosperous one for the railroads
that do business in Iowa..
Reports so far as received show an
increase OF over six million dollars IN
the gross receipts and nearly three
and half million in the net profit.
The principal roads not yet reported
are the Union Pacific and the tMusca-
tine North and South. These will add
probably 100000 to the gross receipts
and reduce the net earnings slightly.
The reports thus far made and tabu-
lated show:
