“April 4, 1 p.m. Referring to my telegram of April 3, noon. Demonstration pending for today has been postponed until the 12th, probably by order of the local authorities. Antiforeign feeling seems to be increasing and I am advising missions in Canton and suburbs to send away as many women and children as possible.”
