Now, less than twenty-five years later, John Chinaman is calling forrailroads in almost every non-railroad section, and the railroadsalready built are paying handsome dividends. Everybody seems totravel. Besides the first-class and second-class coaches, most trainscarry box-cars, very much like cattle-cars and without seats of anykind, for third-class passengers. And I don't recall having seen oneyet that wasn't chock full of Chinamen, happy as a similar group ofAmericans would be in new automo...biles. A missionary along the linebetween Hankow and Peking says that he now makes a 200-mile trip infive hours which formerly took him nineteen days. Before the railwaycame he had to go by wheelbarrow, ten miles a day, his luggage on oneside the wheel, and himself on the other. Thousands of thesewheelbarrows, doing freight and passenger business, are in use inShanghai and the regions roundabout. A frame about three feet wide andfour feet long is built over and around the wheel, and a coolie willcarry as much as half a ton on one of them.
