Katy Improvement Work Suspension Shocks Texas Railways
President Schaff of the M. E. and T. Railway announced suspension of extension and improvement work while a $105 million lawsuit is settled. The action shifts millions in expenditure, sparks distrust in railroad and financial circles, and halts new Texas projects as litigation raises credit concerns. The road operates 1610 miles in Texas and serves major cities and productive regions.
