YOCHOW

Yochow, with a population of 15,000 to 20,000, is situated in latitude 29° 26′ 29′′ N. and longitude 113° 11' 6" E. (Greenwich), at the outlet of the Tungting Lake. Past it ebbs and flows practically the whole of the trade of Hunan, which, however, adds nothing to the prosperity of the place, as it simply passes by after having paid its inward and outward taxes. The city is the gateway of the province and nothing more. British, American, Japanese and Chinese firms maintain regular communication with Changteh, Yiyang and Chinshih, the trade centre of western Hunan. The opening of Changsha took away much of Yochow's transit trade; the Hankow-Canton Railway has, however, so far progressed towards completion that trains are running between Changsha and Wuchang (Hankow): the line is quite close to the city of Yochow, and the place may, in the near future, experience better times if the hope of permanent peace can only be realised.
