The man who is attending to the formation of the Company in Chicago is John P., Grant, who for the last six weeks has been guest at the Virginia Hotel: Mr. Grant yr he is a brother of Sir George Macphersen Grant of Balllodallock, county Elgin, Invernessblis. and a son of the late Str Jobs Micpherson- Grant. It is claimed that through his own falluence and the infidence of his brother, the

The appointment of Li Hong-chang to his present polifon of Minister of Foreign Affairs for Chins offers practically the first chance that Americans caldo of the combine have ever had for rccessful competition in the Chinese market with the American Trading Company. The
· extraordinary Infincaces which it will have at Court, ii la sald, will make it a monopoly itself. in fact it is hoped to drive the American Trading Company oal of business. Every detall of the scheras in this city has been kept with the strictest secrecy thus far for fear the American Trading Company's agents, would learn of the proposed rival for its burlness.
Samuel Crawford, who wis connected with the World's Fair, and has, commercial interests is Canada, is looking after the new corporation's Intereals in the domlolon, He with Mr. Evans is said to be la close correspondence with Louis Spitzel, and already the Company have received some valuable concessions. Spitzel is said to bave originated the idea of the new trading company last May. He landed in Vancouver on the zoth and went directly to San Francisco, where be was met by Mr. Grant, and it is uald the fint Ideas were conceived in the few days he'| spent there before leaving for New York. The plan may be said to have been parked from
ibat moment.

"The new company is to go far outside of the regular liner of trade with Chins," Its provlace, | It is said, wil be to supply the Chinese with everything seeded in the way of manufactures, from locomotives to cheese cloths, as fast as the market develops. The object for which the English-American-Chinese Rallway Construc- tion Company was founded is one of the mest slapendous tallway projecte ever entertained by any country, Its completion will menu 4,300 miles of rallway in operation in the Flowery Kingdom.
"According to the plans of Mr. Courtney, the consulting engineer of the Company, the road will be built in several sections of 700, 900, and 650 miles, besides several short lines of too lies: The present railway system of Chias, only 80 miles long, will form a part of the complated systems,"
