To For Eastern readers Mr Davies's article conveys a fresh information, it throws: no additional light on the intrigues at Peking and the Ouran Bou-Wennington Hall, 31st competitive efforts of mandarins and syndicates to obtain the contrácia for the numerous railway projects of China; to one readers Mr Davies is positively misleading.There is too much froth, and too little substaner. It will be news to Mr Davies, to learn that the Tightsin Lukonelias line is to be carried up to the gates of Pekin, which be reform to as 'thug holy but exceedingly squalid oite He will also be astonished to learn that English capitaliste and English contractors are as anxious to zecure skare in the work of Chinese The railway construction as any foreignera, and has in spite of bribery, backdoor influences and hopest competition these Eglishmen are just as auguine of suc cess as any of their foreign competitors. We agree with his commending the sativity of the French on the borders f South-west China, but we are astonishot that he should have recognised what the Hongkong General Chamber of Com meres failel to recognise not an vory long age, amely that the French wish to push on to Wuchow.fi in Kwangsi, in order to compal an ito. port and export traffic over their Tonkia line instead of letting that trafic find its way to the coast by ray of the West The River.
