Washington Retteent.

Washington, Oct. 9.-Though the time limit within which the ransom for Miss Stone was to have been paid expired at noon yesterday, the woman, according to information received by the state department, is still alive.
 This gratifying intelligence is cloud ed by suspicion of the course which Bulgaria has pursued. If the suspicion now entertained that Bulgaria partici- pated in the plot for the American mis- sionary's abduction should be absolute ly confirmed, it is the purpose of this government to submit heavy claim which shall include indemnity for Miss
 Stone and the amount of the ransom
 that will be paid. or, in the event of her death, an indemnity for her heirs. The department Is observing the ut most reticence, claiming that i'll advised | publication may defeat the elaborate plans that are under way for the wo-
 mans rescue. The officials absolutely | refuse to confirm or deny rumors in cir | culation as to the negotiations In prog
 ress, but say that everything possible is being done to rescue Miss Stone. Wu Ting Fang. the Chinese minister,
 has sent $100 through The Christian l Herald as a contribution to the Stone 1 ransom fund.

QUITO Fl ED ON.
Colombia Rebels shoot Hole
 Through a British ship.

Colon. Colombia. Oct. 9-Q'revious ca. bling of this matter prevented).-A force of 250 Liberals attacked Morro island. commanding the entrance to the port of Tsmaco, on Sept. 24. The land ing was effected before daybreak by means of canoes. Simultaneously the island was stormed from the other end by Liberals on the mainland. The at- tack was futile.
 The British steamer Quito anchored off Morro island on the night of Sept. 26. and, weighing anchor at daybreak. started up the stream toward Tumaco. The Liberals fired a shot across her bows. Suspecting the situation she i'm mediately turned, but rife shots and one cannon continued to be fired at her, shots from the rifles striking her sev- eral times and from the cannon once, the ball making hole right through her above the water line.
 The Quito then steamed to the far thest point the tide would permit and again anchored. The firing now was re- sumed, but it ceased after few min utes, the Liberals having discovered the imprudence of their action
 It is significant that shortly after the Quito incident became known the Brit ish warship Icarus left Panama for a destination not made public, but pre- sumably Tumaco.

Numerous Arrests.

Paris, Oct. 9.-A letter received by the Hayas agency from Salonika says:
 "The American consul here has just received orders to make arrangements with the vali (governor) for the pay ment of the ransom for Miss Stone. The Turkish authorities have made numerous arrests among the Bulga- rian population without distinction of religion, and nearly all have been put to torture in the hope of extracting in formation.
 "A prisoner named Dimitri said an understanding existed between the Protestants and the Macedonian com mittee and that Miss Stone was even acting in concert with them with the view of obtaining funds for political religious propaganda. These declara- tions, wrung from Dimitri under tor ture. are valueless.
 '"rhe captain of the band designated for the payment of the ransom a place In proximity to the Roumelian frontier, which proves that he hopes to escape the Turkish police and that the Bull garian police do not cause him anxiety. Five or six bands of brigands of twelve or fifteen men each have become so bold between Strumitza and Kuprill that the officials of the Oriental rail- road have requested the Turkish mili- tary authorities to re-enforce the troops guarding the track"
