**[in the 2nd July, last we published a telegeme vifect that the Brussels correspond-nt of the Daily Express had learned that a Belgian Syndicate had acquired the concession, and subsequently pointed ou that the American yndicate, known as the China Development Company, was in full possessing of the concession for the rilway which it secured by Imperial Rescript prior to the, disturbances of you.
