Stone, the kidnaped American missionary, Intensities here. There is widespread condemnation of the government for allowing ttuch freedom to the Macedonian committee us to 'tnable it to engineer the outrage. Miss Stone resided here before fho went to Salonica and she is well known throughout the country. The patriotic Unitarians are incensed, as they recognize that Miss Stone and her colleagues of the American missions in Bulgaria, and Macedonia have bren their best friends throughout the trouble?. There is no lack of Indications that Prince Ferdinand is imperiling his own position by permitting such license to the committee, as to enable it to blackmall prominent people in support of the Macedonian cause. Consul Cleneral Dickenson, when here on Ms way to Sofia from Constantinople, thought it probable that if the brigands understood from headquarters that the ransom would not be paid they would release Miss Stone, as the Macedonian cause would not be helped by the murder of the woman.

l.H'on. without distinction of religion, and nearly all have been jtit to torture in the !

nope of abstracting information. A prisoner named Dindtri said an understanding existed between the Protestants and the Macedonian committee, and that Miss Stone was even acting in concert with them, with the Uw of obtaining funds for a political-religious propaganda. These declarations, wrung from Dimitri under torture, are valueless. Whnt is certain is that the captain of the band designated for the paymtnt of the ransom a place in proximity to the Roumanian frontier which proves that he hopes to ecape the Turkish police, and that the Bulgarian police do not cause him anxiety. This condition of affairs Is shown by the fact that live or six bands of brigands, of twelve or fifteen men each, have become so bold between Strunltza and KupriU that the officials of the Orifntal Railroad have requested the Turkish military authorities to rdnforcn the troops guarding the tracks and bridges." A BDI CTI7I) BY Till: Tl'llKS. An Armenian Say Mis Stone "Was Kidnaped ly the Sultan' Ordr. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. S. Dr. M. Mesropian, of this city, a physician and a native of Armenia, who has lectured considerably In Eastern cities on the atrocities practiced upon the Armenians by the Turks, declares that the abduction of Miss Stone, the American missionary, by brigands In Bulgaria, was the work of the Sultan of Turkey. "I am sure it was he who ordered the brigands to carry off Miss Stone," said Dr. Mesroplan. "He ordered her to le taken across the Bulgarian border, so as to distract suspicion from himself. It is a move in retaliation for the enforced payment of the $..(m indemnity that the United States exacted of Abdul liamid for the burning of American missionary buildiriRS. I believe it would be better for the government to semi a warship over there than to pay the random. Missionaries will not be safe after Abdul Hamid has received the ransom. They will he abducted everywhere. The Sultan is determined to be revenged for the loss of that and the abduction serves a double purpose the return of the money and the behest of fanaticism. There is no crime the Turk will not commit in tho name of his religion." MnrriloniaiiN Ilia 111 o tlio Turku. LONDON, Oct. .-The Daily Mail has received the following dispatch from its Vienna correspondent: "In reply to a telegram I addressed to him to-day General Zontschew, president of the Macedonian committee, denies that the committee had any hand in the abduction of Miss Stone. He adds that the committee desires the support of the civilized world for the Macedonian cause, and therefore would not commit such a folly. The Turks did tho deed and Turkey must he made responsible." M. Danew, the Bulgarian Toreign minister, indignantly denies the suggestion that the Bulgarian government is not doing its best to rescue Miss Stone. He says three thousand troops are engaged in the search for her. BRITISH STEAMER HIT pii:h( i:n iiy a cavnuv ball fhu:i I1Y COLOMBIA ti:i!ULS. Morro Inland Attacke! niiri n Landing BfTected Alleged Outrage nt Ilocoi Del Toro. COLON, Colombia, Oct. S. (Previous cabling of this matter prevented.) A force of Liberals, numbering at least 250, attacked Morro island, commanding the entrance to the port of Tumaco, Sept. 24. The island had all along been garrisoned with fewer than a hundred troops, well supplied wih arms, ammunition and commissary stores, including more than 130 head of cattle and other provisions in proportion. The landing was effected before daybreak by mean of canoes. Simultaneously the island was stormed from the other end by Liberals on the mainland. Morro island is surrounded by shallow sandbanks, and tho only means of approaching Tumaco Is by the narrow river, which is within easy reach of the island. The British steamer Quito, bound from Guayaquil, Kcuador, for Panama, and touching at ports between, anchored off Morro island on the night of Sept. and, weighing anchor at daybreak, started up the stream toward Tumaco. The Liberals fired a shot across her bows. Suspecting the situation, she immediately turned, but riile shots and one cannon continued to be fired at her, the former striking her sev eral times and the latter once, the ball making a hole right through her above the water mark, though the damage In other respects was slight. The Quito then steamed to the farthest point the tide would permit and again anchored. The tiring was now resumed, but it ceased after a few minutes, the Liberals having discovered the imprudence of their action. It is significant that, shortly after the Quito incident became known, the British warship Icarus left Panama for a destination not made public, but presumably Tumaco. The steamship agents have been officially notified not to acept freight at that port. The situation on the isthmus is unchanged and quiet. Alleged Outragen. KINGSTON, Jamaica, Oct. S. The newspapers here print a number of letters from Bocas del Toro and other ports of Colombia, complaining of outrages on British subjects, including women. Strong appeals are ; iad to the government to send a warship for their protection and also to demand compensation. Over a hundred refugees have arrived here from Colon. Arrivnl of it Colombian ltebel. NBW YORK, Oct. S. Among the passengers who arrived to-day on board the steamer Finance from Colon was Ricardo Arango, son of the former Governor of Panama. Young Arango Is said to be a rebel against the present government of Colombia, and comes here as a commissioner of the insurgent party. TOUR MEN KILLED.

The old derrick, always a necessary and picturesque part of the drilling appliance, is entirely done away with, and within the next year it is likely that the derricks, which have long been so familiar in the gas and oil districts, will be merely relics of olden days. The new drilling appliance is all carried on a heavy truck, which may be moved trom place to place quite as rapidly and conveniently as the ordinary wugon. Upon it are mounted the boiler and engine, together with all the tackle and pulleys necessary for drilling. At the rear is a tall staff-pole," which when raised, answers all the purposes of a derrick.

S.-The feature of the day's sessions of the Triennial Episcopal Convention was the reconsideration and defeat of what is known as the Huntington amendment to the constitution. which was adopted by the House of Deputies yesterday, providing for the use of modined forms of worship by congregations willing to accept the spiritual oversight of a bishop. An error was discovered In recording the vote of the Nebraska delegation, which had been entered In favor of the amendment, whereas a poll of the members showed that they were opposed to the measure. This led to a demand for a reconsideration of yesterday's vote. The vote on reconsideration resulted as follows: Yeas Clerical, 2b; lay, IS. Nays -Clerical, 33; lay, 12. Divided-Clerical, 13; lay, S. The united vote of thirty delegations of each order being required, the amendment was defeated. Article V of the proposed constitutional amendment, which had previously been passed over by both houses, was taken up by the House of Deputies and defeated after a brief debate. It provided for several changes in the manner of creating new dioceses. This disposed of all the constitutional amendments in both houses except Article II, which provides for any subsequent changes in the constitution. The question of marginal readings was taken up by the deputies, but no action had been taken when the hour of adjournment arrived. Alter disposing of much routine business the House of Bishops took up the subject of marriage and divorce. It is not expected a vote will be reached for several days. A message -was read announcing the death of the lit. Rev. Alex. Burgess, bishop of Quincy, 111., who expired at the home of his daughter, in St. Albans, Vt.
