SIAMESE BAILWAY CONNECTIONS. The new extension of the railway system of Siam will connect at the northern boundary of the British Protected Federated Malay States, on the east side of the peninsula with the British line from Singapore on the south, which line has only about 150 miles yet complated, and will cross the peninsula and connect with the
lue now completed between Pou ong and Singapore in the west shore. When completed this will form a direct rail connection between Singapore and Bangkok, while a branch line of some 60 miles, which leaves the main line at Fataloong, will extend to Trang, on the west shore, and this port will be connected with the mail port of Penang, 140 miles south, by a fast line of mail steamships.

world's commerce, Bangkok will be brought four days nearer to Europe through her mail and passenger service and by this connection with Singapore, Bangkok in a few years will find itself on the direct through line, which is sure to furnish the outlet for the Fritish Protected Federated Maley States on the south to Burma and a the Indies on the north and west. To-day there is direct rail connection between Bangkok, on the east, and Karachi, on the extreme west of India, with the two following exceptions; (1) Botwoon. Sawan- kalek in Siam and Maalmain in Burma, 170 miles; (2) between Prame, west of Bon- goon, and Chittagong, both in British territory, 350 miles, already surveyed. From Karachi to the head of the Persian Gulf, a point which the railroad from Turkey is op proaching way of Bagded, is about 1,50) miles by the gulf and landlocked ees, or by a low and level coast for the most part, on land. With these facts stated, it takes us great imagination to believe that rail connection be. treen Singapore and London may be realised in the not distant fature, and to see the advantageous part that Siam and Bangkok will naturally occupy in the development of this scheme.
MINERAL RESOURCES AND INCREASED
SHIPPING.
The part of the peninsula through which this road will run is ons of the richest portions of Siam. Especially is this true of its mineral wealth. Little has been done as yet in the way of developing the country, but now Bism will
have the opportunity; and it is understood that it is her purpose to open up the region by encouraging the development of its agricultural resources, and by offering inducements to foreign capital by way of mining concessions on attractive terms, to all those who are brought within the new treaty relations.
