BALTCHEFF,S AssAsSINs ARRESTED.
TWO STUDENTS CONFESS THAT THEY KILLED THE
BULGARIAN MINISTER OF FINANCE.

TWO STUDENTS CONFESS THAT THEY KILLED THE
BULGARIAN MINISTER OF FINANCE.
Sofia, July 15.-Ever since NJ. Constantine Batchef.
the bulgarian Minister of Finance, was murdered in
this city, the night of March %, the Government
agents and the police steadily followed up clews
which it was hoped would lead to the arrest OF the
murdcrers In the course of this Investigation a num-
Der Of arrests made but In each case subsequent
developments showed that the guilty parties were still
at large. To-day two students arrested in this
city, upon suspicion of having been concerned in the
murder of VI. Baltcheff. When charged with the crime
they confessed that they the actual murderers, and
accused DR.. Tzatcheh Dr. Moloh and Colonel Klssoit
of having hired them to commit the deed The last
three were also placed under arrest to-day.
NJ. Ialtchef had been out walking with NJ. STAN
boulof, the Bulgarian Premier and they were about TO
enter their Official residence which adjourned each other
when suddenly a man confronted them with revolver
and fred three shots at NJ. Balchef. who fell dead
crowd quickly collected, but in te darkness the muir
derer who supposed TO have been accompanied by
an accOmpice managed to escape. Some Of the people
who witnessed the deed said that the assassin had two
accomplices, who assisted him to escape AS
no motive was suggested which would account
for the murder Of The Minister OF Finance, II
has always been supposed that the murderer
intended to the Premier NJ. Stambouof. and that
he mistook NJ Baltchef for the Premier. Russian
ntrgues and the friends Of Major Panza were said to
have been at the bottom of the attempted assassna
ton of NJ. Stambouloff and those who advanced this
opinion supported il with the remark that the latter was
said to have insisted apsn the shooting of Panitza.
NJ. Baltchef. at the time of his death. had been
Bulgarian treasury official for than ten years.
lie was Of remarkable administrative ability
and the excellent condition Of Bulgarian finances was
mainly due to his management. Both he and NJ
Stamboulof were men of small stature and corpulent
and were not easily distngushabe from each other in
the dusk of evening NJ Baltche was thirty six years
old.
Interest in this case revived Saturday, when
1t was discovered that some unknown person had in
scribed on the tombstone the OF NJ altche
in the cemetery outside the city, the words Forgive
us. We aimed at StambOul0f and struck you. The
second time will fail" II is supposed that this
incident led TO the arrest to-day Of the two students
and 10 the subsequent arrest of the three who are
said to have hired them to commit the crime.

HUNTING FOR THE LONG ISLAND OUTLAW
TWO PEOPLE THINK THEY SAW TOM RICHARD
SON YESTERDAY.

TWO PEOPLE lhlNh IuEi pa" AO"A AAN'''''~
SON YESTERDAY.
The one prevailing topic Of interest and discussion
in Islp. L. L. is "Tomo Richardson and the mystery
which surrounds him and his movements The swamps
and forests of scrub oak are still infested with
hundreds of armed men, bent hunting down the
man who is just now the terror OF that part OF Long
Island. The widest kind of stories told about
him. and every hour puts into circulation rew
rumor that he has been in new and unexpected
place.
Yesterday morning the town was thrown into a
state of excitement which aroused anew the terror
which had taken possession of it when the story of
TOM Richardson and his supposed caves was new
The story is that the outlaw and excowbOy was seen
at ) O'Clock yesterday morning coming out of a hem
house at Brentwood with some fowls under each arm
As in all other instances, when he was seen, the man
who saw him too terrified TO attempt to capture
him or even TO speak to him and the desperado was
allowed to go his way in peace. This story had
scarcely had time to reach Bay Shore and lslip and
once plunge the villages into state Of renewed
excitement. when anOtheN story followed hot
on the heels OF the Brentwood UmOr TO
the effect that "TOm' Richardson was seen in
slp standing In the road stealthly watching the house
OF "Bnl" Hawkins. Mrs. Hawkins went into one OF
the front rooms OF the house and pulled up the curtain
and looked out What she saw induced her to pull
down the curtain and rush terrorstricken downstairs
where her husband was and tell him that she saw
Richardson standing opposite the house on the othor
side Of the road.
Willard 2. Reed lawyer OF Babylon, was trying
in Bay Shore yesterday, and while there made the
statement TO some Of his friends around him that nc
knew where Tom' Richardson was and would produce
him as soon definite charge made against him
and when tie bitter feeling had subsidized He further
said that he had been retained by Richardson as his
counsel lie said that definite charge had at any time
been made against Richardson, and that nothing what
ever had been found which showed that the hunted man
had any connection with the caves or with the rob
near by.
Why" he said, a. do not believe Richardson has
ever been outside OF the State OF New-lorlL He did
wear long hair and sOmbrerO and the people In Islp
and Bay Shore have for long time surrounded him
with halo OF romance Of the dime novel type, and II
Is this false sentiment which is influencing the people
