PLAN NEW CITY FOR CHINA
Hankow. Destroyed In Revolution. May
Be Rebuilt in the Form OF a
Triangular island.

The recent agitation regarding The
proposed rebuilding OF that part OF
Hankow. China. destroyed during the
revolution. has developed into plans
which may make the city ? triangular
island. and Tor this an English com
pany offered Gin July. 1910 to furnish
$50. 900 900 at the close OF the war
then pending.
Commissioner Yam tn has drawn up
a comprehensive plan OF improve
ment. one preliminary survey and one
minute survey have been made. and all
preparations for laying out the sites,
digging the new canal and construct
ing the river bridges are being active
ly pushed on.
Tho best part OF the city Is now a
strip OF land along tho river iangtze,
and this has been turned into conces'
siOns, so that nothing can be done In
regard TO II.
Next in importance Is the land be-
tween the river and the old market
place. which is the only area on which
developments AN be made. AS the
lower end OF the market place Is con-
neCted with the concessions. no extern
sion Fan he made on that side.
At the rear is a shallow lake. and
without great effort II cannot be
turned into "A market.
A comprehensive review OF the stu
alton winch recently appeared IN the
Chinese National Gazette has met
with widespread approval. 1t says:
The strip OF land bsGind the conces
siOns aud the site OF the lake are al
distant from the river, hence trans
portation is difficult. Chinese com
MERGE should extend and expand. and
other undertakings must be effected.
Those in charge OF the project
now intend TO open a canal, beginning
1t the upper part Of the Han river
extending along the rear OF the con
cessions and Joining the Yangtze river
Thus HankOw will be q triangular
island.
'On every side OF II vessels vii
be able to cast anchor, and the do
velopment OF industries and com
merce will go forward by leaps an
bounds"
