Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Outbreak in China: Its Causes
Ecently the eyes of the world have been directed toward China as never before. The unprecedented anti-foreign up rising has taken us by surprise, and found us at first quite unprepared to cope with it. All great cataclysmal catastrophes, however, are the result of forces that have been si lently and secretly at work. SO is it with this eruption in China. The missionaries, who live in closest touch with the people, and hence naturally know the temper of their minds, had been predicting for a long time that we were on the eve of the out burst of a mighty con?agration. The North China Daily News, the leading paper of the East, also read aright the Signs of the times, and uttered many warnings as to what might be expected. These prophets of unpleasant events were not.
