USED DUE PROBATION.
Miss Stone Had No Reason to Appre
hend Any Special Danger.

Boston. Nov. 14.-The executive Of.
ficers Of the American Board of Foreign
missions, concerning the case OF Miss
Ellen NJ. Stone, issued n statement yes
terday intended to I've corrective Of or.
roneous reports that have he wild ly
published relative to the conditions that
resulted In her capture by the brgnnd'.
This statement atiirms that Mss
Stone was in pursuit of her customary
duties as a missionary WHEN she was
captured. The route over which she
was travelling Is one that Is continually
used by the missionaries and will out
reason for apprehending any special
danger. No warning whatever was
given TO Miss Stone MS to this particular
journey, either by the Turkish or Rul-
garian authorities. She had the usual
escort Of Is or 20 people and was ac-
customed to carry with her Turkish
tCSlire, or permit to travel.
One OF the missionaries acquainted
with the region states that the route
Miss Stone took was considered the
safest of any in that region. The state
ment further affirms that there is no
ground whatever for criticizing Miss
Stone for want Of precautiOn in making
this journey.
