shares, amounting to 5000, 900 Of the
stock Of the railroad company, and in
return guaranteed the payment of
certain bonds, among which are in

there has been n failure on account of
an extension of time to pay the bonds
or the interest on them. The bill fled

Finds Imprisonment Irksome, hut Does
Not Complain.
From another letter that has been
received from Miss Ellen M. Stone, the
abducted American missionary, 1t ap-
pears that she Is enduring the trials
Of her hard experience with f%ortitude,
forgetting herself in her anxiety for
her companion, Nine. Tsilka. Miss
Stone does not dare to complain Of the
treatment to which they are subjected.
but she finds the confinement irksome
and the weather extremely trying.
The tone Of the latest letter received
from her is hopeful. The brigands, by
dating the letters at places In Mace

to create the appearance Of being far
distant.
