CURIO DEALERS

FUJITANA & CO.,

The question of currying oa the so-called Mandalay-Kulon, Railway, to the actual oroGS- ing of the Balwoya at the Kundon Ferry is one that must come up for devision aort year. Th lise ne far un Maymayo, forty miles from Manda- lay, will be opened in a few weeks; and beyon

bis a good deal of work has been done. The bridging of the Gateik Gorge is in hand, the cecessary preparations for the girders having baen maile; earth works have beon tɓrown up or the section in Thikaw, and various bridges built: while still further on, towards Lashio, the e gineers have rands their fuel murrays and sligawont. The paint is rently where the farm- iade of the railway shonld be. The businta at home, who believe that sú immense tendo, with Szechuan and Yantian is awaiting develop- meat will of course say that the line abould he built right up to Kuglen sail that tb● Sulween bould be brifged with -a xiow to a farther extension into Westera Chius, Perolical minded men who have closely examined trade statistics held that no tinde of any great vale oxiste, and that it cannot be created by the railway; while engineers and explorers have pronounced against railway serces the big ranges of maintains which are found beyond the Silween. Further, resent surveys kato shewa that the country immediately west of the river is most difficult, and that the expenditure in this last sootion would be enormon. In certain places it would. Accettat to neveral lakhs per mile, and there is. no local trade whatever to a doreloped, as the district has scarya'y ang inhabitants, though the Was lie nour at handa narage tribe who have recently giran much trouble.. The conclusion; therefore, is drawn that the railway should be built to Tashin, or rather to a point sous ten milas beyou, as a valley runs this distamos : beyond the town and the country so far is easy, We do not do know if the decision of Gevara- ment will be tant the lino ehould be built so far. sad no further, bat it would be wise to panes belure sanctioning work on the Saloon gestion Barmal has soveral internal lines which nest bailding, and which would pay, and it would be batter to give rannoy for these than sink it in expensive rook outlinge and taunels in order to link Kaslon with Mandalay-Allaha bad Pioneer.
