THREE PARTIES HUNT
FOR LOST MISSIONARY
If Living Miss Stone Will Be
Found In Ten Days.
BRIGAND CODE OF HONOR

Dickinson Says the Cause of the Delay
Is the Rivalry Between Turkish and
Bulgarian Officials, Who Fix Re-
sponsibility on Each Oiher./
New YORK, Oct 28. According to
the Sofia correspondent of The Journal
and Advertiser, Colonel Kanitcheff,
prefect of the Bulgarian peace, has
made the following statement regarding
Miss Stone, the missing missionary:
''If Miss Stone is living she will be
found within ten days Three different
! parties are now enrouCe to establish
communication with the brlgands.
Dickinson has sent two young men from
Sofia. They are Macedonians and know
the country we'll A party of five has
gone from Samakov, with the same OBJ.
JecT IN view. They are former pupils of
Miss Stone and volunteered for the trip.
Dickinson paid all the expenses. The
third party consists of those sent by the
Russian minister. This is the most
mysterious affair we have had sincea the
court photographer was captured in the
woods near Samakov, 13 years ago. He
is still living, and his frugal life with
the brigands cured him of several dis.
eases.
lit is ominous that nothing has been
heard Of the captive for month. Our
| severe measures have driven the bri-
gands from the frontier to the interior
and it is now a race between three re-
lief parties TO see which will find her
first. Some one is sure to find her, if
living.
"News has reached us that the bri.
gands were attacked by Turkish troops.
but this is not confirmed
FWhile the government. declines to
parley with the brigands, it facilitates
every effort to find Miss Stone. The
brigands doubtless are now in some
Turkish house. The Turks invariably
protect them for backsheesh The
brigands will kill Miss Stone if they 90
not get the ransom. They have said SO.
and they always keep their word. This
is Drigand code Of honor. Other bands
will scott at them if they let her go
without money.
''It we lnd them we will hang them
all. They are sure to be caught within
a year.
Consul General Dickinson says the
cause of delay is the rivalry between
the Turkish and Bulgarian govern.
ments, who fix the responsibility on
each other. Turkey wants to find her
in Bulgarian territory and vice versa.
Mr.. Dickinson also declares that 800
Bulgarian soldiers are totally Inadequate
for the frontier, over 100 miles long.
