In order to thoroughly understand the proposal made to-day, it is important for Mr. Addis to remember the terms of the Agreement concerning the Hankow-Canton line, which agreement has been signed by him, acting on behalf of the British and Chinese Corporation and Mr. Simon, acting on behalf of a French Group.
The principal conditions of this agreement are:-
1. Eventually, the constitution of an Anglo-French Company on the basis of the Chinese Central Railways.
2. The sharing, between the English and the French groups, of the whole of the financial and industrial advantages, each group being entitled to one half of them.
3. The sharing, between the two groups, of the recruiting of the staff, each group doing one half;
4. Organization of an office in London and an office in Paris.
