 Are Impeded.

Washington, Nov. 9-Consul General Dickinson, from Sofia, reports to the State Do partment by cable the receipt by him of another letter from Miss Stone. as already noted in the press dispatches of last night. He quotes Miss Stone as saying:

 Mir. Dickinson complains constantly of attempts to interfere with the line of communication he is seeking to establish with the brigands Although no explana- ton Is offered by him as to the reasons for this interference. it Is believed here that the Bulsa, ian authorities are seek ing to pave the way for a denial of re- sponsibiiity for an indemnity by exhibit ing unnecessary activity in the pursuit of any persons who might be supposed to be able to inform them of the where abouts of Miss Stone.
 Notwithstanding the difficulties which are daily encountered by the State De- paytment Tn US eHorts-. 10 reacn Miss Stone. the belief is strong among the of ficials that in the near future they will succeed In securing her release.

 RELAPSE.
By So Eumbly Yielding to the De- mands of France the Sultan's Despotism Evidences Its
 Decay.

New York, Nov. s.--The Suitan's yield ing to the French demands brings soul ful gravity to the possibility of the effect of the French seizure of Mytileno. by the crumbling edifice of Turkish despotism, says the Constantinople correspondent of The World.
 The whole of European Turkey Is seeth- ing with disorder. In Armenia the annual butcheries have been in full swing for the past three months and in the remain der of the empire there is the perennial violence. corruption, waste and lawless ness. From the French army down to the magistracy every part of the machine of government Is in a hopeless condition. In the opinion of the diplomatic body at Constantinople any attempt at patching things up will be merely futile effort
 The news of the French intervention was suppressed at Constanttnople for three days. but the sultans cabinet being in constant session showed that serious crisis had arisen.
 The Sultan has been in a condition of 'epileptic fury and his ministers. who live Tn perpetual terror of their lives at his hands. were helpless and afraid to do or suggest anything. It is believed in Con- stantinople that Russia is behind France in this business and 1t Is felt that the present trouble is inevitably destined to lead to developments in the eastern ques- ton in which England will be powerless to make her influence felt.

In consequence of this activity, which has lately been increased by the Bulgarian troops. the condition of Madame Tsiika, Miss Stones companion, is even more pitlable owing to her expected accouche- ment.

The monastery of Rilo was searched by the authorities, as the prison CTS were reported to be concealed there. Troops are also searching the neighboring hills.
