Mr. Adee to Count von Hacke.

My dear Count Von Hacke: Referring to my conversation with you yesterday morning, I send you for your information copy of a memorandum1 dated the 10th instant in response to the inquiries made through Mr. Jackson, the United States chargé d’affaires in Berlin, as to the view of this Government touching the selection of Count Waldersee to command the cooperating military forces in China. This memorandum was telegraphed last night to Mr. Jackson, the charge d’affaires in Berlin, for communication to the Imperial German minister for foreign affairs.

Very cordially, yours,

Alvey A. Adee,
Acting Secretary.
