Chinese Railways Busy.

Latest reports indicate that the 1900
miles of government railways carry
annually more than 25,000;000 passen-
gers a total of 1000, 000,000 miles.
Thirty-seven per cent of the receipts
Of the government railways come from
the passenger service. On five of the
lines the passenger revenues exceed
those from transportation of goods.
Ninety-fve per cent Of the passenger
traffic is third-class at an average fare
Of one cent a mile, which. means a
large amount of travel by the poorer

priests had four votes. landowners and

This enabled the Catholic party TO
