than £70,000. He admitted that there had been some local trouble

in two cases, but nothing out of the common, and he argued that

of the articles which the Tongshan Works were in a position to

supply to the Canton-Kowloon railway, and in this list provided

bridge caissons were mentioned, but when Mr. Kinder was applied

to for the caissons he was unable to make them for canton.
