Surveys Begin For American Railways In China
American engineers have begun surveys on two lines for the Siems-Carey Railway and Canal company in central and south China. One route from Chuchow to Yamechow spans about 100 miles through Hunan and Kwantung provinces toward Liuchow and Nanning. The second line runs east west from Chow kinkow through Nanyanfw to Hsiangyangtu, a 300 mile route through fertile, level lands likely to yield quick returns. Construction may start soon, and this could be the first of the new American railways opened to traffic.
