Abstract
EARLIER than was expected, reports have arrived from north-west China about the earthquake of December 26 (local time). From these, it appears that 280 persons were killed and 300 seriously injured, while 800 houses were destroyed. These losses occurred in the north-west of Kansu, one of the Chinese provinces most frequently visited by disastrous earthquakes.
