Missouri Railroad Land Claim

The largest land claim ever made upon the United States Government, is that of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad Company for territory to the value of $61,287,000 now included in the State of Oklahoma. The plaintiffs declare that by act of Congress, approved July 25, 1866, the land was granted to the railway company, but has since been deeded to the Indians individually by the Government. The case will be watched with interest.
