SEARCHING roR.1HE BRIeANDs.
No News Comes From the Missionaries Pursu
ing the Quest. -
fBy the Associated Press.)

(By the Associated Press.)
Constantinople, Oct 19.-Neither w.
w. Peet, treasurer of the American Bible
House, nor Spence Eddy, secretary of the
United States legation, had received any
news up to noon today from the mission
aries who are searching for the brigands
who kidnapped Miss Ellen M. Stone and
her companion. Nine Tsilka.
Messrs. Peet and Eddy had a long con-
ference today as to the advisability of
reinforcing the searchers, but decidede
that the present arrangement sufficed.
Consul General Dickinson remains at
Sofia and will operate from there until
the liberation of Miss Stone is accom-
plished.
The difficult nature of the country
handicaps the searchers and heavy rains
have increased the difficulty of traversing
the paths which are the only means Of
access to the hiding places of the bandits
in the rugged mountain range fanked on
the west by the Rilo and on the east by
the Rodope mountains, the SUBMITS of
which are already capped with snow ex-
tending some distance down.
Thick mists generally envelope the
IGSlOu III dutuAu, preventing CfCh Ca
perienced mountaineers, shepherds and
woodcutters from travelling.
Early in the week one of the mission
airy searchers actually located the band,
and was approaching their retreat when
the brigands, apparently fearing the ap-
proach of troops, shifted their quarters
and track of them was again lost Now,
however, that the troops have been call
ed off, the directors of the search are
hopeful Of making better progress, though
they point out that even after the bril-
gands are found the negotiations may be
prolonged, especially in view of the lack
of telegraph facilities.

 Duty--He Readily Gives
 Bond.

prasident Edward Flynn of the United nt,na Workers of America, Alabama Dis trict No. 20, was arrested yesterday on warrant charging him with preventing a man from the pursuance of labor for the purpose of earning an honest living.
 The warrant was issued upon the aff1- davit of John Downs, a miner of Coal burg. who, it is alleged, is not member of the union, and with whom the union men refuse to work Immediately after the arrest MT. Flynn secured bail in the sum of S2oO for his appearance at the criminal court at the next term in Sep tember.
 When asked about the arrest President Flynn said:
 "It is true was arrested on warrant sworn out by John Downs. This man Is not a member of the union, and because the miners of the United Mine Workers refused to work with him and another non-union man, which refusal resulted in a closing of the mines he has had the warrant issued.
 "The warrant Is issued for, have been informed. because I am president of the district union, and by that position keep him from being employed. The warrant was from the Criminal Court. have per sonally interfered with no man, union or non-union, and therefore feel no hesitancy 1 nsaying I will not be found gully of any crime when given a hearing"

Basis of the Settlement is a Compromise, Both Sides
 Making Concessions
ACCORDING TO THE WORLD
Pierpont Morgan, Who Was Depended Upon to Adjust the Matter, List ened to Terms of President
 Shaffer-Sehwab Happy.

New York, July 27.-The World tomor- row will say:
 The great steel strike will be settled within few hours. Theo. J. Shaffer, president of the Amalgamated Associa- ton, slipped into the city yesterday morn ing, accompanied by Secretary Williams. They held several conferences during the day with officials of the United States Steel Corporation, and an early settlement of differences is in prospect
 J. Pierpont Morgan, who has been de- pended upon to adjust matters between the giant company and it's striking em- ployes gave up his day off" yesterday and worked long hours as peacemaker.
 The basis of the settlement of the steel strike Is a compromise, concessions being made by both sides. The terms, it is un- derstood, will be about as follows:
 First-The mills recognized Ss non-union on July 1 will be continued as such, save possibly where the Amalgamated has eff fected a strong organization.
 Seecond-The Amalgamted Association will recede from its demand with steel company and sign the scale for all mills.
 Third-The steel company will pay the scale in all mills, union or non-union.
 Fourth-All mills shall be open to all men with or without union cards. The association shall not attempt to force men into their union or to oblige the steel company to employ only union men. Ftfth-The steel company will permit or ganization of men when they manifest a desire to join the Amalgamated Associa- ton or other associatons.
 The steel officials several days ago ex- pressed their willingness to renew nego- tiatious with the officials of the Analga- mated Association, ard Messrs. Shaffer and Williams started promptly from Pittsburg for New York. Upon their ar- rival here they went to the offices of the United States Steel Corporation on Broad way. They were met by President Chas. M. Schwab, who took them into his pri- vate office. MT. Schwab listened earnest ly while the strikers explained the basis on which they would end the strike, after which he hastened to the office of MT. Morgan. MT. Schwab spent an hour with the great financier.
 When Mir. Schwab returned to his own office Messrs. Shaffer and Williams were waiting for him. At this conference MT. Schwab did most of the talking. He told the strike leaders the terms on which Mir. Morgan would consent to a settlement of all differences.
 The discussion which followed was har- monious. It soon became apparent that all differences could be adjusted and MT. Schwab was in good humor when he emerged from his office shortly after o'clock, accompanied by Messrs. shaffer and Williams. They, too, seemed to be in good spirits
 Mr. Schwab went again to MT. Mor- gan's office, where he remained for more than an hour. He then went up town.
