information a report by Captain R. D. Walker, M.C.,

Manager of the Kowloon-Canton Railway, on a recent visit which he undertook to ascertain the progress made in the completion of the railway between Canton and Hankow.

the Kowloon-Canton Railway by the construction of the much discussed loop-line in Canton, is likely to be of great importance to the commercial future of this Colony.
