STORY OF THE SIBERIAN RAILROAD

through a much more fertile country
The negotiations for rails in this
country recently reported were prob
ably for this line. Most Of the rails
for the Siberian railroad were sup
piled by. Russian works, which the
government protects so far as possi-
BILE, but transportation by rail 1000
miles or more from European Rus
sia would probably cost at least $40
a ton. and very much more than ship
ments by sea from America or Eng
land to Vladlvostok.
The building of a railroad in the
Amoor valley is likely to give mar
ket for Puget sound lumber. The
bridge tlmbers, ETC., for the Chinese
The Amoor valley is wooded, but the
timber seems unsuitable for most rail-
road uses. At least American lum-
Der was taken directly up the Amoor
and its southern tributary, the Sun
gari, for the Chinese Eastern.
Ties and some other timber were
obtained also in Corea, close to the
Manchurlan border, and It was in con-
nection with Russian forest opera
tions that the difference with Japan
began which resulted in the war. Rus
sla will not be likely to get timber for
the Amoor line from that source Of
supply, There is very little popula-
ton in the Amoor valley and a rail-
road in 1t is not likely to be profitable
soon.
