Washington, D. c., Nov. %. -Secre-
tary Hay received dispatch from
Constantinople yesterday repeating
rumor that has reached there that
Miss Elien NJ. Stone, the American
who has been held captive
by the Bulgarian brigands for several
months, and her companion in captiv-
ity, Nine. Tsilka, are dead. The re-
port however, lacks confirmation, and
is not credited by either Mr.. Spencer
Eddy. the American charge at Con-
stantinople, or by Mr.. Dickinson, the
consul general there. The reported
death of Nine. Tsilka is said to have
been from childbirth. and that of Miss
Stone, from grief, the story coming
from Salonika. Regarding Nine. Tsil-
ka, the report is regarded here proba-
bly, as simply reiteration of story
which has been repeated heretofore
several times. The latest accounts
from Miss Stone have represented her
to be in good health,

The Clerks Lunch HOur.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
noticed the article in Saturday evening S
Star headed "One Hour for Clerks Lunch
Suggested" The writer is surely not aware
that large portion of the government
clerks reside in the country and go back
and forth every day. Now, if this new
plan suggested be adopted, which would
cause their going to work sooner or work
ing later. It would necessitate their staying
IN the city away from their families or
otherwise dfspOsing of their property in the
country and moving into the city Half an
hour for lunch is entirely satisfactory to
the writer, and / am sure II is to the larger
portion of employees. l would suggest that
the writer of the article take his walks
after dinner hour. since they promote d.
gestion. and am sure they would be more
enjoyable in the cool Of the evening T.
