$338,000 over the preceding

gross income was $7,698,000.
The net income of the St.
Louis, Iron Mountain and
Southern was $77,000, a de
crease of $2,752,000. The
amount spent by the Missouri
Pacific for additions and equip
ment was $1,584,000, and by
the Iron Mountain, $1,032,000.
No change was made in the
outstanding capital stock dur
ing the year. The funded debt
of the Missouri-Pacific was de
creased $97,000, and the equip
ment trust obligations decreas
ed, $626,000, a total of $723,
000. The funded debt of the
Iron Mountain increased $826,
000, and the equipment trust
obligations decreased $477,000
leaving a net increase of $349,

mail, express and other reven
