MISS STONE REPORTED
TO BE ALIVE AND WELL

COnstantinOple, Nov. 6.-The officials
of the United States legation here have
received news through Salonika that
indicate the early release of the cap
tives in the hands of the brigands. On
Oct %, Miss Stone and Madame Tsilka
were both well.
Sofia Bulgaria, Nov. 6.-The brigands
having Miss Ellen NJ. Stone, the Am
erican missionary, and her companion,
Nine Tsilka, in their custody were in
Bulgarian territory near the Turkish
frontier last week, according to au-
thoritative intelligence. The captives
were lodged in caves and fires were
lighted to protect them from the Sc
we're cold. Since then the brigands and
the women have gone to some place
unknown.
The fact that violent measures, such
as mUtilatiOn, to extort ransom were
not taken, indicates that the brigands
are under the impression that the
longer they wait the better viii be the
terms obtainable. This attitude IS re-
garded as being partly due to the pub
Lefty given to the subscriptions toward
the ransom, and it is increasing the
difficulty experienced by Consul Cen
eTal Dickinson in his efforts TO reduce
the brigand's demands.

Special to The FIsrald.l

Tacoma, wash, Nov 6.-WOmen of
Japan have now added their protest to
that of religious denominations against
permitting Heber J. Grant and his as
sociates Of Salt Lake to promuIgate
the Mormon creed in the mikado's
realm. The imperial government has
been petitioned by three Of the most
important female societies of Japan on
this subject.
The primary object of the societies is
to reform customs with regard to
women; they are working to raise Jap
anese women to a higher plane, espe-
cially with regard 70 the morality.
They set forth four reasons why Nor
mons should not be allowed to prose-
lyte among the japanese, as follows:
First-That while the MormOns pub

Extraordinary Precautions.
Manila Nov 6-The recent develop
ments I'm the island of Samar have caused
the military authorities to take extra
ordinary precautions in the island Of
Leyte. The provincial government OBJ
jects to this, on the ground that by re-
ducing the authority of the civil gov
ernor they set a bad example to the peo-
pie.
Wright, AR Grant says that. although
three presidentes and one vice presidente
have been arrested in Leyte for treason
able correspondence with insurgents.
these people have not represented the
islanders generally, VINO appreciate the
blessings of civil government.
In the main according TO Mr.. Grant,
the natives of Leyte are quiet and sub
dued. They fear, moreover. that they
may be mistaken for the natives Of Sd
mar. They have been powerless to re-
fuse the demands made upon them b.
LUkban for food and assistance. owing
TO the refusal Of General Smith TO allow
them arms Tor self-protection.
