population of 65,000. A level stretch" of country behind Langkou, thickly populated and very fertile, would make it appear that the port may some day a sume considerable importance, The proposed Ühefoo-Weiheisa Railway would result in connecting Langkou with both Chefoo and Weihsien, thus with north and central Shantung. It teems that the opening of this port to foreign trade is dun to overtures made to the Chinese Government by Japan. The waters about Lungkou abound in good fish, especially the "tai," which... commanda a splendid market id Japan. There is a large passenger trade between Shantung Province and Manchuria. Between 50,000 and 100,000 Shantung natives" migrate to Manchuria each year for the summer crops, returning again in the fall of early winter.

able to do so through the opening of the port of Langkon than otherwise. At present the bulk of this traffle goes from Chefoo and Teingtou. As Dairen is bat 120 miles from Langkou, it will be possible to divert much of this passenger traffic to Lungkou, where Japanese steamers will probably be prepared to take it at a lower rate to Dairen than
would be possible from Chefoo or Tsingtan, especially so when the railroad is completed connect- ing Langkon with Weihsien. It appears that Japan, with the opening of the port, is preparing to do everything possible to make the trade of that section of Shantung Province north of the German railway tributary to Dairen, Recently there W68 organised in Dairen with Jap anese capital the Lungkou Bank, capitalised 100,000 yen, to develop trade between Dairen and Langkou. There is no feeling among the foreign merchants of Chefoo that the opening of Lungkou will greatly affect the trade of this port. It is not interests other than the Japanese will avail themselves of the port. The construction of the proposed Chefoo-Weihsien Railway, along with the completion of the Chefoo breakwater, should resalt in making Chefoo an outlet for much of North China-that is, provided arrangements can be effected whereby this railway may be connected with the Tientsin- Pakow line. Without extensive harbour improvements Langkou cannot accommodate more than two or three vessels of 12ft. draught at one time at anything like a reasonable distance from the shore.
