Cur telegraphic intelligence yesterday.com lained a summary of an article recently seat to The Times by its Paking correspondent on Hangchow-Ningpa Railway between this port the construction of the section of the Shanghai FANY, carrying on business at Victoria in the and the capital of Chekincy province. In this Colony of Hongkong, and elsewhere as met article strictures of the severest nature ato pass chants, have, on the 25th day of Novembar, 1908, applied for the Registration, in Honged upon the line, and it is clearly in the in: kong, in the Register of Trade Marks, of the tersts of China that they should not be lightly.

brushed aside por ignored on the strength of The representation of two ducks on a river. vague contradictions from aupymous"experts" of Chinese landscape with a Pagoda on. The bistory of this somewhat notorious zailway is a matter of general knowledge. When the | British syndicato to which it had originally been conceded came to negotiate the terms of construction with the Chinese Government, the provinces concerned urged that the right to build the tailwsy bad been transferred to them and "iosisted, upon the cancellation of the concession to foreigners. After the most tedious begotiations the agitation in the provid. ces simmered down, and a loze agreement, based on a compromise, was ratified between the British and Chinese Corporation and the Peking Government. One of the primary stipp lations of this agreement was that the building of the line and its control should be in the of the Ministry of Fosts and Communl cations, which way to be responsible for its economical and efficient construction. Within five weeks after the signature of this contract the railway had been handed over to the railway, bureaux of Ctékiang and Klangau, and it is safe to suppose that the Yuchuanpu is entirely ignorant of its present condition. A complete, surrender was made to provincia! agitation, and virtually the Government, which is responsible for the security of the loan of BAR'S00,000, has washed its bands of the business. Chinese engineers are building the line; and although, by the terms of the loan agreement, the services of a British consultative eoplueer, who has remained in Shanghai all- 36 the time, have to be engaged, no attempt has been made by those in charge of the lion to benefit by his advice, nor until a few weeks ago was he even allowed to inspect the railway.

In the light of such severe criticism it is clearly the duty of the Chinese Goverment to inquire into the whole maiter bath in the intes ests of the Chinese travelling public and tax. payer and for the sake of all future railway construction in China. As far as the Hangchow Railway is concerned the bondholders under the loan agreement need have no abxiety, as the interest on their money is guaranteed by the Central Government on the profits of the Nonbera railways.
