MISSIONARIES THINK THATv
THEY ARE SAFE IN COREA

lieve That japan Is More Friendly
Toward Them Than Russia.
New York, March 1. A letter dated, uncertainty that It haa seem.-d best
Seoul, Jan. 22. ha been received by
the Methodist Missionary Society from
the Rev. George M. Burdlck. one of Us
missionaries in Corea, It is ihe first
written reply that has been received by
the society in response to Its cable dis
patch of Jan. 21. In which caution was
advised American missionaries.
The letter said that at no time hadj
the missionaries there been In apparent
danger. Early in the fall a Corean
bey fell under a moving electric car on
an American trolley road, and was kil
led, and this accident greatly excited
the Coreans. A mob formed und dam
agvd a Japanese house whither a Jap
anese who had helped on of the electric
company's men to escape had lied for
safety, but the excitement died down
quickly and everything went on as be
fore. Mr. Burdlck says also that some
misunderstanding was 'caused ty the
increase of tee guards at the legarions,
and a fiery article appeared 'a a Cor
ean peper, denouncing foreigners. The
American minister advised th.it Ameri
cans should not go on the atrpets un
attended. Mr. Bui dick also said:
"Our missionaries who have country
work have done very little for the last
six weeks.- There has been so muchj
not to run any risks. - But Brother
Swearer started Into the country to
day for a ten day's trip In holding the
fourth quarterly conferences, with the
knowledge and consent of the Uulted
States minister. We are confident of
safety. ' '"'
A cablegram tame from liivhop
Moore in Seoul on Saturday, containing
references to oiliclal business only. No
menUpn was made of the war (situation,
so little fear Is felt here for the Meth
odist missionaries. All of them, with
the women and children, are attending
the annual meeting of the Corean mis
sion In Seoul, and will probably re
main there for the present, v -'
Letters received by th Rev. X)r. Ar
thur J. Br a Wn, secretary of the Pres
byterian board, contained practically
no reference to the Impending war.
A missionary official said: ,rVVe take
no news to be goo-) news. We record
It as unlikely that anything will hap
pen to the missionaries. I cannot ex
press any feeling as to which side
missionaries and thoso Interested in
missions hope will -tvin. I will say,
however, that Japan Is particularly
friendly to Christian missions. Ve
cannot judge of the attitude Russia
will take."
