Each of the Tsin-Pu expresses now, has- attached to it, says the Tientsin Timea, a special ear equipped with two 250 c.p. searchlights worked from dynamos on the axles, and with two machine-guns. Theee. searchlights throw a team of light to a range of about 500 yards on each side of the track, and can be manipulated so as to throw their rays ahead or astern or at any angle on the beam of the train. They are act in the military aease, archlights, inasmuch as they consist simply of a light metal barrel with a highly burnished re- Hector, and a 250 cp. bulb, which would probably be put out of action with single rise bullet that struck any part of the apparatus. But they appear, with the powerful locomotive headlight, to be quite effective for the purpose for which they are intended, of illuminating the track and the country on either side of it, to a considerable distance. The machine guns to be employed by the trains include Chinese weapons of the Maxim and the Hotchkiss type, and American made Thompson Sub-machine-guna, which look like an elongated Mauser pistol, but are automatic, and equipped with drums- containing 250 rounds apiece.

The warchlights, of which there werd lour on the special train, though the ardinary expresses will only carry two, were in play throughout the journey. to Tientsin West. There the guests disem barked. and assembled in the booking hall, to listen to a brief explanation from Mr. Sun, the Managing Director.

EXPEDITION AGAINST

CANTON.

It

PROBABLE EARLY DEVELOPMENT.

The Chinese New Year as usual, says Reuter's Peking correspondent, was marked by an absence of political develop- ments, but attention has since been given to movements in which many Chinese see reason for forecasting the dispatch of u Nerthern expedition against Canton. It is stated that General Yuah Tsu-ming, the Kwrichou leader who is with the Northern forces in Execbuar, will return to Kwei- chow, leaving the work of rehabilitation in the hands of General Liu Hsiang, while bandit suppression in Western and Southern Szechuan will be carried out by General Yang Sen. General Pang Peng jen, leader of the Northern forces co

is operating with General Chao Heng-ti marching on Shokuan, where one of his detachments hae already `arrived. General Ma Chi and General 'Shen Hung-yin are also reported to be marching of Sho- kunn, which is near the Kwangtung border of Eunab, "

Although General Chao Heng-ti has not cancelled the autonomy of Hunan it is said that he is co-operating loyally with the Northern troops in these movements. Meanwhile General Lu Yung ting is said i to be consolidat General Heng, his Chief. his position in Kwang- si, and bna sent- of-Staff, to Peking to consult with the Government authorities. With the end of hostilities in Szechuan in sight it je cr 'pected that some of the Northern troops there will be available to strengthen the forces gathering together on the northern boundaries of Kwangtung.

It was announced by the British Cham- ber of Commerce in Paris last month that in order to alleviate unemployment in England to some extent, the British and French Ministers of Labour have come to an arrangement whereby it will be pow sible, to bad, work in France for some of the British now idle.
