NEW YORK, Feb. 14.-R. 1. Schwer
in, vice-pwsident aud general manager j
. of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company j
whose business relations with those of !
China have been intimate fur more than;
i
a dozen years, regards the situation in
China with grave apprehension. He!
con-iders the manifestations of di-or- '
der ss primarily anti-American but,
with the sentiment of "China for the
Chinese," underlying the erruptions, the
trouble is certain, in his opinion, to
spread and become an anti foreign up
rising that will make all other nation
alities excepting the Japanese, the ob
ject of attack.
Speaking of the prospect of trouble
lr. Schwerin last night said:
"The present situation is eertainly
exceedingly serious, and the safety of
all tbe missionaries in the empire is
menaced. Indeed, I should not be sur- j
prised at any time to read of a whole-!
tale massacre. And if it should come !
to such a pass which I fervently hope!
Vuy be avoided, we simply would be ;
