MISS STONE.
She Says She is Exposed to Hardship
and Suffering.

She Says She is Exposed to Hardship
and Suffering.
Sofia, Bulgaria, Nov. 9-.In the latest
letter received from Miss Ellen NJ
Stone, the captive American mission
ary, she says she is exposed to much
hardship and suffering, owing to the
constant movement of the band over
hills in rains, notwithstanding the rig
ors of winter. In consequence of this
activity, which has lately been increas-
ed by the Bulgarian troops, the oondi-
tion of Nine. Tsilka, Miss Stones COM
panion, is even more pitiable, owing to
her expected accouchement.
The belief that Miss Stone is con-
cealed in village is thus discredited,
as is the reported birth of child to
Nine. Tsilka. The monastery of Rilo
was searched by the authorities, as the
prisoners were reported to be conceal
ed there. Troops are also searching the
neighboring hills.
Consul General Dickinson conferred
to-day withe NJ. Daneff at the Bulgar-
ian foreign Office, and it is understood
that Mr.. Dickinson made representa-
tions against the movements of the
troops.

HAS FILED A BRIEF
MARION ERWIN ACTING IN THE
CARTER sWINDLING CASE.
TRIAL MAY BE IN GEORGIA.
TO QUAsH GREEN AND THE GAY
NoR's HABEAs CORPUS. -

But whether or Not Trial is Held
Here the Assistant Attorney Gem
eraI Contends That 1t should Be
Held at Once-Nearly Two Years
Already Consumed in Fighting
Removal by Technical Objections.
While Four of the Governments
witnesses Have Died.
Washington, Nov. 9.-The brief of the
department of justice in the habeas
corpus proceeding of Benjamin D.
Greene, John F. Gaynor, William T..
Gaynor and Edward H. Gaynor, ac-
cused of conspiracy with Capt. Oberlin
M. Carter, to defraud the government,
has been filed in the United States Su.
preme Court, in which tribunal the
case is pending. The defendants insti-
tuted the proceeding with the hope of
avoiding being sent to Georgia for
trial. They raised many points on
which it was alleged that the federal
court of New York had erred. All these
are discussed at unusual length by the
government brief, ION account" it
says, "of their bearing upon the future
progress of this case, as we'll as the
great public importance attached to the
settlement of questions of practice
which by erroneous application have
nearly subverted public justice in this
case"
After the technical discussion of the
POINTS at issue the brief concludes as
follows:
The defendants do not lose any
substantial right by a refusal of the
court, by habeas corpus, to interfere
before trial The. same august tri-
bunal, the Supreme Court Of the Unit
ed States, will be the final arbiter on
all questions, whether they go up from
New York or Georgia. The same pub
lie policy which encourages freedom of
intercourse and interchange of traffic
and close commercial relations between
the states, and gives the citizens of one
state equal rights in carrying on busi-
ness and contracts in another state,
demands that perpetrators of frauds
committed in a state who flee for ref
uge to another state should be brought
to quick trial. In the case at bar four
of the governments witnesses have
died since the coprt-Inartlal trlal Near
ly two years have already been con-
sumed by the defense in fighting re-
moval by technical objections.
The Supreme Court has said that
Congress never intended by these acts
TO interfere with the ordinary proceed
ings in the courts in advance of final
judgment, and we submit that it is the
duty of the courts TO so construe the
law"
The brief is signed by Marion Erwin,
q special assistant to the attorney gen
eral, and Solicitor General John +.
Richards.

manner which gave evidence of his
future power as a debater. The learn

Of these striplings very kindly. but the
census of 1890 showed them TO be en-

his visits to the great cities he was I'M
pressed with the need of doing some

a fairer start in the struggle for life.
When he began his work in Chicago
benevolent sympathizers came to his
