It is said that the Chinese intend to get back everything
and the buying of all Properties with the object of ousting
"Foreign devils"
a
Policy which they
are said to be
also pursuing at the Treaty ports - If there were Trouble hereafter with China, ending in war, the presence of this very large Chinese

the Military position.
