FRENCH ENTERPRISE IN YUNNAN.

The agent of the French Government, and also of French capitalists, is en deavouring to push on his pet scheme for a railway from Laokal to Yunnan-fu for which he has already, secured the up- proval of the Fronch Cabinet to the con- vention he has made with a syndicate ul Paris bankers to build the line at a cost of 70,000,000 francs. At present the greater part of the export and import trade of Yunnan is carried through the open town of Mengtze, about 150 miles south of Yunnan-fu or Yunnan-sen- the French call the capital--and quite near the Tonkin bortler.. Mengise is dis tant from Yunnan-fu eight easy stages for pack-horses, over a table land sloping up to northwards.. Its climate is excel lent but a day and a half's journey to the south from, Mengtse brings the traveller into the low-lying and tropical valley of the Ited River at Manh2o, whence there is direct communication

valued at more than one-tilth of that amount for the same period, it will be realised that Yunnoo very possibly possesses rich mineral resources, which may rendar M. Douner's railway a cONT- mercially profitable, as well as strategical- ly important, venta—Engineering.

with the sco. Goods are brought from Hongkong to Haiphong on the Tonkin const, and thence up the Red River in junks. Small steamers can reach Laokai on the Chinese frontier, where. M Hoursar means to start his railway, but the navigation is so uncertain that ship pers prefer junks. The difficulties of navigating the Upper Red River and a the two days' mule transport, from the river valley up to the plateau of Meogize, are serious hindrances to the trade; yet Mengtse is time commercial key of the best districts of Yunnan, and the chief town of a district containing a 'populo- tion of about 2,500,000. Its trade has been increasing rapidly. In 1897 it was vained only at £660,000; while-Instyear- it was probably overà million. Withal; the town of Mengtse is neither large na wealthy, being little more than a for warding station. Its chief product is tin, and it exported nearly £250,000 worth of that metal in alabs during 1899. Tha mines of Kuo chin are conveniently.
