CHEMULPO

583

The steamers of the Nippon Yusen Kaisha and Osaka Shosen Kaisha call regularly and have nearly the monopoly of the trade and passenger communication with Japan and North China. Before the war steamers of the Chinese Eastern Railway Company called at Chemulpo on their run between Shanghai, Port Arthur and Dalny. The Hamburg-Amerika Line has also a regular fortnightly service between Hongkong and this port.

There are telegraphic communications with China (overland) and with Japan, a cable between Chemulpo and Chefoo remaining a desideratum.

Chemulpo easily retains its position as the principal port in Corea. The imports in 1901 amounted in value to £1,650,172 and the exports to £255,010.
