The work OF construction goes slowly al
the Hankow end OF the line. Chang Chi
Tung has much to do with this branch Of
IL. and IL was his original intention to
build 4; entirely OF rails made 81 Chinese
from and srnsitei with Chinese coal The
result was that he put up about seventy
acres OF car shops. including two enor-
nous blast furnaces. az Tanyang. adtoin-
ing Hankow. He spent something Ike
ssspep in such experiments. and then
turned the road over 70 Sheng. Sheng
Is importing most OF his materials from
Europe.
long ago They were smelling foreign
iron with foreign coke. trying 10 learn
how 70 make rails. and evidently no. sue
ceeding. for the rails now being used are
imported from Belgium. Fifty miles Of
track VIII be Laid with such rails within
the next few months There are now 1000
men there employed. and the work will be
steadily pushed
The route OF this Hankow- Peklng rail-
road was recently surveyed by Capt. Wat
son w. Rich. a prominen, american rail-
road engineer. who Il now In the en-
ploy Of the Chinese government He Is
the confidential technical foreign railroad
adviser 10 Sheng. and has much infu-
ence here. He built the Sault Ste. Marie

construction. ] chattei with him about
the line from Hankow 10 Picking. He
said:
THE country through tina. part Of China
r. fat and our chief difficulty VIII be Il,
bridging the waterways. The great plain
~ north China IL cut up by streams aud
canals. You can go everywhere in boats
and the many waterways wiu necessi-
tate bridges az every few miles. so that

II h the bridges that cost.
zone Of our great troubles on the Han
kow-pekfng ilne will be the Yellow river
This has heavy floods and II often changes
It's course We have tried TO plan che
road so that Il shan be outside the dan
ger line For this reason the route has
been laid ont near the foot OF the noun
tain. 5aa miles back Of the coast Here
the river at low water Is about fifteen feet
deep and a mile wide Al high water II is
three miles wide. 20 that we shall need
a thrce-nile bridge. All such bridges
must he brought from abroad. We have
no cheap wood In Chlna, and our bridge
material must be steel"
II had the idea. Capt Rich. that rail-
. roads could be built here very cheaply'.
THAT II a mistake" was the reply
Wages are much lower. but the people
are nnskilied and they work slowly
Take, for instance, the briSklayers we
paw Chinese mason and his helper
about 20 cents day for Twelve hours
work. and they lay leo bricks. An Amer
lean briskiayer and helper would receive
about $3.50. hut they would lay .aap
bricks. SO that the difference Ia not so
great as II would seem. We can get dirt
exravatad for about three-fourths the
American price. but all rock work IL
equally expensive We also have 20 pay
