Excerpt from Treaties and Conventions With or Concerning China and Korea, 1894-1904 In view of the great importance of the industrial and commercial concessions made within the last ten years by China, not only to various Powers, but to divers foreign or mixed companies or corpora tions, and individuals, it has been thought advisable to include in the present volume the text of the most important of these documents, arranged in chronological order. Part II of the work contains (1) the treaties, conventions, agree ments, etc., made with or concerning Korea, and (2) the concessions or contracts for the building of railways, development of mines, etc., in the same country during the period covered in the first part of the work. The sketch maps showing the boundaries of the territory leased by France at Kuang-chou Wan and that leased by Great Britain at Kow loon, are official; but it has been impossible to obtain the official Russian map giving the boundaries of the territory leased in the Liao tung Peninsula from China in 1898, and of the Neutral Zone north of the same. The map given is a reproduction from the large map of North Eastern China, prepared by Mr. C. H. Wacher, formerly Rus sian minister to Korea, and is probably correct.
