Tho Political Annual, or Paris, In
Its Issue of September 1G, Bays that
mo construction or tno Trans-Siberian
was undertaken mainly to de
velop tho resources of Siberia, al
though there woro political and
strategical treasons also.
In 1857 au American named Col
lins Qrst proposed a railway from tho
Amur to tho village of Tchlta. Lator,
several plans wore formulated, but
It was not till March 17, 1891, that Wo
Trans-Siberian railway was definite
ly determined on and projected by nn
Imperial order.
On May 10, 1S91, tho first stono
was laid. The line covers 3,CW
miles .in Russian territory and 1,604
miles In Chlneso territory. In .ten
and one-half years 5, ICG miles of
rails were laid. In tho Canadian Pa
cific, constructed undor similar condi
tions, It took 10 years to lay 2,321
miles of 'mils.
It is true In order to construct the
Trans-Siberian with such rapidity It
was necessary to employ simpler
means than those usually employed
on Itusslan railways. Lighter rails
wero used; less ballast wbb put un
der the ties; the tics were shorter;
tills. Instead of being made 18 feet
wido, wero limited to 1G.4 feet; and
the grades and curves were accen
tuated. The government thought
thus to reduce expenses, hut It waB
quickly perceived that this would not
answer the exigencies of the case.
Tho government therefore proceed
ed Immediately to replace the light
rails, to lengthen the ties, and to per
fect tho roadbed. This, of course,
meant double work and a correspond
Ing Increase of expenses.
Rates of Speed.
Freight trains cover tho distance
from JIoscow to Vladlvostock in fifty
to sixty dayB, traveling at the rate of
about eight nille3 an hour; passenger
trains make a speed of about 13', A
miles nn hour. It is hoped that
when tho road has been perfected
the freight trains will make 13 Vj
miles an hour and passenger trains
miles. The total oxpenwjs to
date exceed 1391,400,000. There are
yet two lines to be completed Ono
around lake Baikal and the other to
Khabarovsk.
Before the construction of the rail
way tho commerce of Siberia with
Russia passed almost entirely
turough the two towns of Toura and
Tloumen.
In 1891 there were exported from
Toura 87,iS2 tons of Siberian pro
ducts, and 41,565 tons imported from
Russia; SO pflr cent of the exports
wero cereals. From 1S9G, the com
mencement of regular traffic on the
railway, until 1899 tho number of
travelers transported had Increased
from '417.000 to 1,076,000, and tho
number of tons of merchandise
transported had Increased from 206,
452 tons to 728,939 tons; but it must
bo romembered that these, figures in
clude somo goods destined for tho
railroad and for tho state. Tho pro
ducts oxported nro cereals, tea, beef,
pork, buttor, leather, hides, wood,
salt, wool, eggs, game, att!e, poultry,
charcoal and cedar nuts.
Communication Established.
By means or the Trans-Slbennu
Railroad, a regular communication
has been established with the differ
ent rivers of Siberia, und thlB is pat
tlculnrly Important for tho move
ment of cereals, since 366,887 tons,
or one-half of tho total exports, wero
cereuls.
ThlB railroad has rendered the most
appreciable service to tho coloniza
tion of oiberla. This colonization
has been aided by the creation of a
"trnns-Slborlart committee," which
sent out literature on Slborla and
also established a number of supply
houses and medical depots. The ef
ficacy or the latter may ho Judged
.from the mortality figures of the emir
grants en route In 1894, out of GO,-
000, 3,000 died, while In 1899, out of
zzu,W)V, only 3U0 pcrislied.
Volume of Travel.
From 1893 until 1899 tho number of
emlgruntH Increased from G5.000 to
223.918, whllo tho total number
amounted to 968,440. Tho fore for
emigrants is one-fourth of the regu
lar rnto. in 1900 a special commis
sion was formed for tho purpose of
laying off lotB for tho colonists; since
that time 15,606,997 acres have been
laid out und 11,629,707 acres are now
occupied.
Government Encourages Settlement.
Every emigrant with the proper
authorization receives 40.5 acres.
Ihirlng the first three years or resi
dence the emigrant pays no taxes,
and for the three following years ho
pays only one-half the. legal rate.
Emigrants without resources are
furnished money for expenses of
travel, etc. Wood is lurnlahod thom
from the Imperial forests. At local
ities where wood cannot be obtained
direct from tho forestfl, depots have
been established where it can be ob
tained nt first cost.
Siberian Crops.
The average Siberian crop amounts
to from 3,280.000 to 4,100,000 tons,
of which three-fourths como from
western Siberia.
It Is also Interesting to note the
development of the commercial re
lations of Siberia and Japan. From
1896 until 1900 tho Imports from
Japan had Increased from $86,440 to
1,7G3,US. During tho samo period
tho exports had Increased from 1GGG,-
000 to 2,84G,56S.

but nothing more was ever thought
of it.
Tho workmen used smoke to stlllo
