An extract from the "Ah Tsz Yat Po" of 19th October, 1908.
Our Special Telegram received at 6:30 yesterday from a Peking Correspondent.
The British Minister has many times made representations to the Board of Foreign Affairs stating that the Swatow railway affects the interest of the Kowloon-Canton railway. The Board of Foreign Affairs has directed Viceroy Shum by telegram to suspend the construction of the former line for the present, but Viceroy Shum has sent a telegram in reply strenuously opposing the Board's direction.
