Mr. Hengelmuller to Mr. Adee.
Bar Harbor, August 11, 1900.
My Dear Mr. Adee: I have received your note of the 9th instant, by which you transmitted to me copies of your correspondence with Mr. Wu with regard to the adoption of measures for the safety and relief of the foreign ministers in Pekin.
My Government, which has been informed of this exchange of communications by the representative of the United States in Vienna, has desired me to express to you its best thanks for this information and to add that its views on the matter agree entirely with those of the Federal Government.
Believe me, my dear Mr. Adee, very truly, yours,
