News of MIns Sfnne.

According to information received from Salonika, Miss Ellen NJ. Stone and Mime. Tsilka, her companion, are concealed in the vicinity of Rilo, about five miles south of Dubnitza, In Bulga- rian territory. The news was brought by Macedonian, who left there Dec. and who furnished precise informa- ton regarding the hiding places and the names of the agents supplying food for the brigands and their cap tives. It Is understood that the infor- nation is considered reliable enough to justify the American officials in Tur- key dispatching emlssaries to treat with the bandits and that application has already been made to the Turkish government for the free passage of the emissaries across the Turkish frontier.
