metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: Starting from the mid-1890s, Manchuria came into the sphere of political interests of Imperial
  Russia in China. From 1896 to 1898, a number of Russian-Chinese agreements were made on
  mutual cooperation, the construction of the Chinese Eastern Railway, the Russian-Chinese Bank,
  the lease of Chinese territories, security, etc. Situated on the coast of the Liaohe River in South
  Manchuria, the city of Yingkou played an important role in this mutually beneficial process.
  Yingkou, a tractate port, was called the “Gate of Manchuria”, it has been known since 1861 as a
  center of junk trade and a center of commercial activity. The Russian presence increased here
  from 1896, and in 1899 a Russian imperial consulate was opened here. The city played a big role
  in economic and political cooperation during the construction of Port Arthur and Dalian. Starting
  from 1900, the order of the Russian Temporary Administration was introduced in Yingkou,
  which significantly strengthened Russia’s position in the region. Diplomats were appointed to
  the posts of mayors — Russian consuls in the port city: A. N. Ostroverkhov and V. F. Grosse.
  Among the many questions associated with solving diplomatic, commercial and organizational
  issues were issues of socio-cultural activities. The article describes details and analyzes the measures
  initiated and carried out in Yingkou, mainly at the expense of Russian funds, connected
  to the anti-epidemiological situation, the fight against plague, specific measures to improve the
  sanitary condition of the city; considers issues related to the improvement of urban infrastructure,
  security and social sphere; speaks about the opening of the Russian-Chinese school and its
  importance for the promotion of the Russian language in China. The article uses a large number
  of archival sources which are introduced into scientific circulation for the first time.
