Belgians, British, Russians and ch all have raflway undertakings hina, and the virtual suspension his work is a hard blow to the try which is, as yet, inadequately ed by railways and greatly in i of them for defensive as well as mercial purposes. fforts have been made to interest erican capital in several of the bs. Chinese officials are confident the Eurcpean nations would turn ir their interests to a neutral coun- such as the United States, if Am- pan financiers would undertake to iplete the lines. Thousand Miles Long hinese themselves are trying * to finish the rajlway between Lan- chow, in Kansu Province, with the sea at Tungchow, in Kiang-su Province. This line is more than a thousand miles long and is of prime importance as it runs east and west through a rich country and crosses the two im- portant north and south railways. One of these connects Peking and North China with Shanghai. The other connects Peking with Hankow, the great interior commercial metropolis on the Yang-tse river, which city is called the Chicago of China and will undoubtedly be one of the most im- portant commercial .centers when adequate railways are provided in the Yang-tse valley. The Lanchow-to-the-sea line is al- ready partly completed through the section between the great north and south railroads, and its managers are carrying on the work towards the west on a loan provided by the Chi- nese government. The work is fitful, however, and there is little prospect of completing the line without for- eign assistance. British Suspend Work. ‘Work has been suspended on the British railroad, projected between Nanking and Sinyang. This line is about 250 miles long and connects Nanking with the Shanghai and Pe- king main lines, and with the Peking- Hankow line at Sinyang. Only nina miles of earthwork has been com- pleted on this project. ~The entire Two Faily House on Hart St. For Sale By Schultz & Costello, Inc. 242 Main Sireet.

Surveyors are still at work on the projected British railway southwest from Nanking to Ping Hsiang, a dis- tance of about 500 miles. The sur- vey will be completed next spring, but at present there is no money in sight for the building of the railway. Railse Money by Loan, The Chinese are continuing the ex- tension of the railway from Kalgan, northwest of Peking, to the Yellow Tiver in Mongolia through money that has been raised by a local loan, but the funds are insufficient to complete it. The original plans provide that this line shall connect with the pro- Jected Russian line across Mongolia to touch the Trans-Siberian railway near Lake Baikal in Siberia. ‘Work has been suspended on the international railway designed to con- nect Hankow with the heart of Sze- chuen Province to the westward along tte Yang-tse river. Americans are in- terested in this line together with the English and German. The American section exténds from Ichang, in Hu- peh Province, to Wan Hsien, in Sze- chuen Province, a distance of 200 miles. R. W. Randolph, the Ameri- can surveyor in charge, is at Ichang, but most of his staff has returned to America and work has been suspend- ed until after the war. The Szechuen railway will tap a territory of over 60,000,000 inhabitants who are now without means of com- munication with the rest of China ex- cept through the Yang-tse river which through its upper reaches, is filled with gorges and rapids which make navigation impossible for ' anything but very small boats. Many other lines which have been projected and partially surveyed have also been abandoned temporarily be- cause of war conditions.
