provincial loss.

from the Revolution.

fed provincial liabilities.

penses.
(g) For the re-organization of the Salt
Administration.
The details of these seven expenditures are contained in separate annexes which form part of the Loan Contract.
While wholly seured on the Salt Gabelle, subject to the previous loans, ric, the loan constitutes a direct obligation on the Chinese Government.
