the Miss Stone Affair.
Il the Missionary and Her Companion

Washington, Feb. Alt IL estimated at
the State Department that fifteen days
have now elapsed since the money for
Mss Stones ransom was, paid over to
the agents Of the 'brigands. At least Ave
days have. elapsed beyond the time fixed
In the stipulation to place her In the
hands Of her friends. There Is no expia-
nation for the delay. 1t IL hoped that
physical conditions, such ~ heavy SHOWS
and adverse weather. may account for
the failure to secure her delivery. The
ohicials are loath to believe that there
has been breach of faith on the part
Of the brigands, but even II this were
so, they do not regard themselves as
biameworthy for having trusted them.
From the first thu United States Gov
eminent has been adverse to paying
ransom. but In response to appeals from
every quarter. reluctantly authorised Mr..
Leishman to deal with the brigands.
However. II It turns out that the bril-
gands have broken faith and that they
either have taken the ransom money and
spirited the captives away again, or that
they have killed them. then there will be
no further attempt to deal with the
brigands on the part Of the United States
Government. but it's entire power viii be
directed upon Turkey and upon Bulgaria
to procure the swift and certain exter-
mination of the brigands, regardless Of
cost or effort. ga

reserve cities, whereas the true amount
was $236,e95. The report stated that there

corded in the report was $745,2S7. whereas
the complaint declares the right figure
to have been $943. 2S7. The report indicated
that F. c. Andrews was not liable in
any amount to the bank. when. the COM

the House of Commons today. The esti-

sixty ships In addition to the twenty-sev-
en- others that would be laid down. Be-
sides this a large program OF RECONSTRUCT
ton would be undertaken, thereby adding
greatly to the fighting power of the feet.
Guns Of more formidable calibre would
be mounted on many vessels, and 6-inch
guns Of the latest and most improved
type would replace the A. guns.
Unexpectedly rapid progress was being
made with the submarine beet and Nifty
vessels would be added to this feet. A
new type of torpedo boat destroyer had
been designed and 1t was hoped to OBJ
