In reply to your Confidential

Despatch of the 21st. ultimo, I have the honour to state

that upon receipt of Your Lordship's telegram of the 15th.

ultimo I asked Mr. E. S. Lindsey whether, after consider-

-ing the report of the Consulting Engineers, he still

adhered to his views as to the terminal station at

Kowloon of the Kowloon-Canton Railway. Mr. Lindsey re-

-ported on the 16th. ultimo that he adhered to his

views, and he has therefore been authorised to take

action in accordance with the proposals made in Sir F.

D. Lugard's Despatch of the 3rd. of last February.

I have the honour to be,

Your Lordship's most obedient,

humble servant,

Officer Administering the Govern

-ment.
