Westminster, S.W.

7th October, 1910.

( 30041/1910 ).

Your letter dated 5th October was unfortunately

addressed to Mr J. 9. Beale, and has for this reason only

come into my hands late this afternoon.

I have pleasure in enclosing, as requested, a copy

of the Report I addressed to Sir Frederick Lugard as to the

Agreement to be made with the Chinese Goverment for the

working of the two sections of the Canton Kowloon Railway.

I will give careful consideration to your enquiry

whether similar arrangements to those proposed by the

Government of Hong Kong exist in the case of railways owned

by two or more continental powers, and report further to you

within the time you mention.

I am,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

!

Beale

The Under Secretary of State,

Colonial Office,
