Charies Ft Gammon, superinten&
ent of of celporteure for the Arne*
can Bible Society in Northern China,
writes to the society 'concerning the
present situation . in the Chinese
Empire as follows :
'While at Sharighai I observed that
the Chinese Government was epenly
violating the pro'risions ot thepro,
tocol, The great lenipire would shake
off European denomination. Thous-
ands of boat -loads of small arms and:
animunitioe 'were passing weekly op
the Yalig,tse-Klang, and the arsenals
were being-enlargedand worked day
and night. Cargoes of explosives
were being received, and the Dowager
Empress had issued, instillations to
all officials to recruit the arniy, and
also to inform her as to .the fighting
strength of each division and the
time required to concentrate the
forcesat a given point. There were
road, • aromany • other unpromising
features which weighed heaVily. upon
the ixdads of. those interested.
"I must .believe that the end Is net
yet, and that within ten years, and
possibly within. AV(); a war will en-
sue the like of which the world has
never. known. For centuries ' .China
has been. making •repeated . attempts
• to expel the foreigner each' time pro-
• fiting ber past experiences, each time'
with more power and success, each
time better . equipped and better
.planned. She is now prepared as
neer before,, buying vast -quantities

fore the reext n'ttenape will be gigan-
