Are Assured Safety.

New York. March 17.--Letters have
been received by the missionary society
from Bishop David H. Moore, Of the
Methodist Episcopal church, who has
had charge of the work in eastern
Asia. The bishop was passenger
from Shanghai to Chemulpo on the
steamer sungari. The latter was sunk

she departed from Chemulpo.
Bishop Moore says he witnessed the
fight which ended in the destruction
OF the variag and Korietz, and, with
General Allen. was only few hundred
yards distant when the Korietz was
blown up.
The bishop was expected to start
home or the general conference, but
as an old soldier says he does not like
to leave the scene. at least not until
all the missionaries are out Of the dam
ger zozne. 1t is likely a suggestion
that he remain in the far east will be
telegraphed at once.
