Southern Traction scheme ties Howe to Lorimer bank collapse
St Louis June 13. Southern Traction company tied Jeptha D Howe and the Lorimer construction venture to the blocked bridge project across the Missouri River. Lorimer’s firm invested over 500000 while bond issues stalled, revealing why the Chicago Lorimer bank failure followed. The line from East St Louis to Belleville exists but carries little traffic as city politics and franchise cuts delayed completion and passenger service. Howe disclaims direct financial stake beyond construction contractor role, while noting coal transport recently began and passenger service hoped for by September.
