Paraphrase of Telegram to Sir J. Jordan, No. 10,

January 19th. 1907.

Canton-Kowloon Railway Loan.

On the understanding that application would at

once be made for Imperial Edict and no further changes

be suggested, the British and Chinese Corporation had

agreed to a reduction to thirty years of the term of

the loan for the Canton-Kowloon Railway at the request

of Tong.

According to telegraphic information sent to the

Corporation by Mr. Bland Edict censuring Tong, which

was issued recently, prevents the latter according to

his own statement from moving in the matter.

Is serious delay likely to occur and can matters

be in any way expedited?
