In a Note of May 12th which I had the honour to address to Your Highness I stated that I had received a telegram from the Governor of Hongkong to the effect that the Canton Provincial Authorities were taking active steps in furtherance of a scheme for constructing a railway from Canton city along the right bank of the East River through Yuyuan. It was pointed out that, as such a line would follow the proposed route of the Canton-Kowloon railway, the Preliminary Agreement of March 1899 would be infringed, and Your Highness was requested to impress this fact upon the Viceroy of Canton by telegraph, and to move His Excellency to drop the scheme.
