in the sea at low water. These are three 40' four 20', five

40', four 15', and five 30' spans and could not possibly have

been built for the money allowed by Mr. Bruce in a Colony like

this where rates for masonry are nearly as high as in England.

Mr. Bruce's permanent way estimate was

about right as far as the rate per mile was concerned, but he

did not allow nearly enough siding accommodation for Kowloon.

The allowance of 2 miles would hardly

be sufficient to hold all the rolling stock and keep the main

line free for traffic.

Survey.

Taking my estimate under Main Heads.

The $45,000 includes the cost of Mr.

Bruce's party as well as the cost of the realignment round the

coast between Tai Wai River and the big cutting beyond Taipo

mentioned in paragraph 27 of my General Letter No. 22 dated

25th January, 1907. The alignment round the coast required

very careful setting out so as to have the minimum amount of

tunnel with the minimum amount of Bank in the sea exposed to

typhoons. After several lines had been laid out I decided on the

present one as the most economical.

Land.

Government Crown Land is being given

free and the amount shown in the estimate is the cost of land

bought from private owners.

There are 3 heavy items namely Kowloon

Inland Lot No. 652 for $47,000. This Lot had to be bought as

communication was cut off by the Railway due to the diversion

of Des Voeux and Gascoigne Roads.

The Line ran through the Slaughter

House and Cattle Depot and the $18,000 is the estimate of the

Honourable Director of Public Works for rebuilding same on

another site.

Farm Lot No. 4 for which $22,000 was

paid was some land between chain 9,400 and chain 9,661 the

compensation for which had to go up to arbitration.
