PEI-TAI-HO AND CHINWANGTAO-NEWCHWANG

The Administration owns large areas of land in the vicinity of the port. A good harbour, good water, electric light, and cheap coal offer exceptional inducements for industrial enterprises, and it is expected that there will be a great development in this direction in the near future,

The Yao Hua Mechanical Glass Company have erected a glass factory at Chin- wangtao. The establishment, which covers about 110 mou of land, is one of the largest of its kind in existence. The capital of the Company is $1,500,000 plus $600,000 debentures.

The great increase of trade year by year has induced the Chinese Maritime Customs to erect a fine Customs house at Chinwang tao, with a deputy commissioner in charge, and to open a Hai Kwan Bank for the convenience of local consignees.
