General Chaffee Objects to China Policy

The American commander in China, General Chaffee, has publicly made objection, and that “very strongly,” to “the tendency manifest in the temporary government established by the Powers to give large salaries for very little work; to commence public works for which there is no immediate necessity; and, in general, to all appearance, to aim to get all they possibly can out of the Chinese at as little cost to themselves as possible:” and all of course at cash cost to China.
