The original Memorandum states that the Board,

of koste and Communications telegraphed on November 7, 1911, to the Governor requesting that the running of ordinary trains on the Canton-Kowloon Railway might be temporarily suspended from November 7 to November 12, the traffic losses to be dealt with

in accordance with the Agreement.

The Ministry of Communications admits a liability under the Canton-Kowloon Working Agreement for compensation for five days, from November 7 to 12, and the report of the investiga- tions of the Canton-Kowloon Railway Office AXX states that, according to the Agreement, such compensation must be calcula- ted on the average receipts for the month of that year preceding the suspension of traffic; that the average daily receipts for the preceding month of that year amounted to One Hundred and sixty-three dollars and eighteen cents, making the total

ompensation due for five days Eight Hundred and fifteen

loliars and ninety cents.

The original liemorandum further quotes a communication from the Governor of Hongkong to the effect that, owing to the

ried state of the district through which the line runs,

dista

it was not possible to resume through traffic until December 14.

t adds the provision of Article 7 of the Working Agreement that compensation for suspension of through traffic shall be paid by the Government requesting such suspension at a daily rate of half the average cross receipts of the other Section

in through traffic for the corresponding month of the previous

ears. It goes on to state that the average gross receipts on rough traffic of the British Section for the month preceding

ber 7th amounted to Three hundred and seventy dollars per

r, by a reduction of one-half, to One hundard and

eighty-five
