CANTON-KOWLOON RAILWAY,
Minutes of Meeting (the 8th) held at the Wai Wu Pu on Wednesday
the 10th October at 3.45 p.m.
Present:- S. S. T'ang Shao-yi,
Kung Taotai and Mr. Hu, representing the Viceroy of
Canton.
Mr. Gaw, Secretary to the Wai Wu Pu, and
Mr. J. O. P. Bland, representing the British and Chinese Corporation, Limited.
Discussion of the draft agreement was renewed.
Kung Taotai, referring to the Articles arranged at last
Meeting, suggested certain further verbal amendments of the text, which
were accordingly discussed and agreed to in several instances.
Mr. Bland requested, in view of possible delay in the
negotiations between the Canton Viceroy and Hongkong Government, the in-
clusion of a clause in Article IV providing for an extension of the eighteen months time limit in the event of commencement of construction
work being delayed as the result of causes beyond the power of the
Corporation to prevent, which clause was accordingly inserted.
Article VII. S. S. T'ang Shao-yi desired it to be
clearly stated that the land purchased for railway purposes within the survey limits, should be paid for out of the proceeds of the Loan. Mr. Bland suggested that a maximum sum for such purposes be named, but His
Excellency considered that under the particular conditions of this
agreement this is unnecessary since it is to the undivided interest of
the Chinese Government that the line shall be built as economically as
possible. He stated that in the event of the Loan funds proving insuf-
ficient to complete the railway, the Chinese Government would provide
the balance required.
Article VIII. No discussion.
