I have just asked this question myself and cannot find a definite answer.
In a study by Theresa Gibert (on Kate Chopin's story "Désirée's Baby"), the author applies this phrase to light-skinned women of mixed race - black and white - with whom plantation owners in the American South of the 1850s often entered relationships.
There is a film called "The yellow slave" from 1913 (!) referring to Japanese women, and the phrase also crops up in other sources relating to Chinese or Asian women around the year 1900, when China was a colony, and its population mistreated by western occupants.
I hope, this is of some help to you.
Bye,

Slave ships were often not allowed to dock at port due to the fear of disease outbreaks, such as yellow fever or smallpox, which could spread among the crew, enslaved individuals, and local populations.
