Drive Is Opened on Chinese Bandits
Chinese bandit suppression forces of the Nanking government are rounding up bands in Western China after a spate of depredations. Some leaders have been captured and executed, yet many bands remain active posing major military problems in the north and south. Foreign missionaries Truax and Schwendener were seized April 24 near Sungtao, dragged through rough terrain, imprisoned in a cave, and later freed after ransom negotiations shortened from 20,000 silver to 660.
