M. Denison, legal adviser to the Japanese Foreign Office, values the railways transferred to Japa-n at '3o millions sterling, and the Yentai and Fushan collieries at 50 million sterling. Japan will soon exploit the enormous mineral -wealth of Sagialien, anjd it is expected that the result will b© altogether worth far more than any indemnity.
