You will be aware that, on behalf of our clients,
The Hongkong Tramway Company of Hong Kong, Ltd, an electric
tramway from Victoria to Sau-ki-wan is being constructed under
our direction.

904.
When our Mr Dickinson was in Kowloon in 1901 it appeared to
him that if Kowloon developed it might be possible to work an
electric tramway there in conjunction with that in Hong Kong.
We have since, through our representative in Hong Kong, been
discussing the matter with our friends in Hong Kong, Sir Paul
Chater.
Sir Paul is somewhat doubtful
as to whether a tramway
in Kowloon would be justified unless it was extended, in the form of
an electric light railway, to Sam-shun.
We are reluctant to incur the expense of a detailed survey to
that place without first ascertaining whether, in the event of our
asking for a concession authorising the construction of an electric
tramway in Kowloon, with an extension to Sam-shun, such an application
would be favourably received and considered by His Majesty's
Government so far as British Territory is concerned: further,
whether there would be any objection on the part of His Majesty's
Government to the continuation of the line from the British
boundary to Sau-chun, if not, whether the Government would give
assistance and advice in connection with any negotiations which
may be necessary with the Chinese Authorities.
