Rev. VIM. ElteRich Writes of COndf-
tfOnss at ChefOO.
Mr. VIM. L. Hterieh, attorney, of 40
Louisiana avenues northwest, in this city,
received. this mornirg, a letter from his
son, the Rev. VIM. o. Elterich, Presbyter-
ian missionary in Cheefoo, Shantung
China, for eleven years, who lately has
sent several cabiegrams to the mission
board in New York. The letter is dated the
18th of June, 1900. and among personal
matter contains the following about the
situation in China. and especially in Chez
fCo:
Il have just returned from a preaching
tour in the interior of Shantung All over
the prospect for good harvest is good
and the famine will soon be over.
"Op my return Ilearned of the troubles in
the, north, between Tien Tsin and Pekin.
If the foreign powers had done their duty
last winter and spring, matters never
would have gone so far Nobody here in
the east Is surprised that 1t went to that
IL now depends whether the government
Is willing or able to suppress these Boxers
| am afraid the government itself is no
longer able to do that. and the foreign
powers will have to intercede This yery
likely will cause the partition of China.
Here in Cheefoo just at present we are
IN no particular danger. There are all sorts
OF rumors among the people. 1t is said
that also in this place Boxers are to be
found. The governor of the province has
sent to us fifty Chinese soldiers since the
cGnsuis had demanded it. These guard our
houses. Also today the Yorktown will ar
rive All this in order to prevent danger"
