MISS STONE HELD
RANSOM PAID OVER BUT NO DE
LIVERY AS YET
WRATH FELT AT WASHINGTON
Failure of the Bandits to Keep Faith
is the Cause Uncle Sam will Sanc
tion No Further Negotiations with
the Brigands
WASHINGTON D C Feb 22 It
is estimated at the state department
that fifteen days have now elapsed
since the money for Miss Stones ran
som was paid over to the agents of the
brigands
At least five days have elapsed be
yond the time fixed in the stipulation
to place her in the hands of hor
friends There is no explanation of
the delay It is hoped that physical
conditions such as heavy snows and
adverse weather may account for the
failure to secure her delivery The of
ficials are loath to believe that there
has been a breach of faith on the part
of the brigands but even if this were
so they do not regard themselves as
blameworthy for having trusted them
From the first the United States gov
ernment has been adverse to paying
ransom but in response to appeals
from every quarter reluctantly author
ized Mr Leishman to deal with the
brigands However If it turns out that
the brigands have broken faith and
that they have either taken the ran
som money and spirited the captives
away again or that they have killed
them then there will be no further at
tempt to deal with the brigands on the
part of the United States government
but its entire power will be directed
upon Turkey and upon Bulgaria to pro
cure the swift and complete extermina
tion of the brigands regardless of cost
or effort
LORD PAUNCEFOTE IS HAPPY
Isthmian Canal Treaty is Favorably
Ratified
WASHINGTON Feb 22 Final rat
ifications of the Hay Pauncefote treaty
giving Englands assent to the con
struction of a canal across Central
America by the United States were
exchanged at the state department at
3 oclock this afternoon There was
very little ceremony about the ex
change Copies of the treaty had
been prepared precisely similar ex
cept that in fact the signatures were
inverted in one copy and these wer
formally exchanged between Lord
Pauncefote and Secretary Hay a pro
tocol being signed formally attesting
to that fact which will form part of
the records
Lord Pauncefote was in the best hu
mor over the successful outcome of
the labors of himself and Mr Hay
He regards the treaty as one which
will do much to prevent friction in
the future between the two peoples
It has been suggested that with the
completion of this great work the
British government might regard Lord
Pauncefotos services as ended but
it is learned that this is not the case
Lord Lansdowne the secretary of
foreign affairs has signified to Lord
Pauncefote his desire that he shall
remain in Washington for an indefi
nite period
DESCRIBES THE WATER CURE
Funston Denies that Officers Counte
nanced Its Application
KANSAS CITY Feb 22 General
Frederick Funston in discussing the
water cure a form of torture charg
ed against the soldiers in the Philip
pines said that he had never seen
the water cure applied but he had
heard it described The victim is
bound and a canteen forced into his
mouth said the general His head
is thrown upward and back and his
nose grasped by the fingers of the
torturer Strangulation follows as a
matter of course When the victim is
about suffocated the application is re
leased and he is given a chance to talk
on recovery or take another dose of it
The operation is brutal beyond a
doubt but hardly fatal
The charge which I have just re
futed at the request of the war depart
ment was most vague It was made
by a soldier and to the effect that lie
had helped administer the water cure
to 100 natives That is the kind of
rot a soldier is apt to write home
when business is dull and he has three
or four beers under his jacket to help
his imagination Nothing of the kind
ever occurred with the knowledge of
the officers or ever occurred at all for
that matter
Acquitted of Murder Charge
DENVER Feb 22 W P Flanders
of Lyons Colo who has been on trial
here for the murder of Mrs Nellie
Hardifer was acquitted by order of
the court The charge was that the
two had decided to die together and
that Flanders administered the poi
son to the woman and to himself The
court decided that the evidence was
insufficient The woman died but Flan
ders recovered Mrs Hardifer was
the wife of a Denver contractor
SICKNESS DUE TO EXPOSURE
Soldiers in the Philippines Fail to Ob
serve Sanitary Rules
WASHINGTON Feb 21 Governor
Taft continued to discuss the climatic
conditions in the Philippines today be
fore the senate Philippine committee
Reverting to what he had said yester
day concerning the health of the
American troops in the Philippines
Governor Taft said that much of the
sickness that does exist was due to
exposure and he Incidentally made an
appeal for liberal appropriations for
the construction of barracks for the
protection of officers and men The
witness thought the high death rate
of troops in the Philippines was not
due to guerilla warfare saying that
it was impossible to get soldiers to
observe the laws of hygiene His ex
perience Governor Taft said was that
the greatest danger in the matter of
health in the Philippines is found in
the neglect of symptoms which are not
generally regarded as of importance
in the United States
He knew he said of Europeans who
had spent thirty or forty years In the
islands and who are in good health
He thought however that they gen
erally left the islands for several
months every two or three years As
a rule a continued residence had the
effect of causing a gradual deteriora
tion of health Governor Taft said he
attributed his own loss of health to
lack of exercise He referred to the
prevalence of private diseases and
said that certain precautions had been
taken by the medical authorities in
the way of supervision which was
thought necessary for the protection
of the troops and the public
EFFECT OF PRINCES VISIT
Revival of Cordiality is Predicted by
German Paper
BERLIN Feb 21 The Kreuz Zei
tung concluding a column survey of
tho relations between Germany and
the United States says
The royal attitude of Germany at
the outbreak of the Spanish American
war has just been proved If the
sympathies ot the German people
were then with Spain the explanation
is that ideal trait of the German
character which causes Germans to
sympathize with the weaker party in
a fight But we have long since got
ten over that Sharp conflicts of in
terest exist between Germany and the
United States These however are
not political but are confined to eco
nomic matters Perhaps a way has at
last been found which renders possi
ble a settlement of these conflicts
Perhaps the visit of Prince Henry will
give occasion to this end At any
rate much will be gained if this visit
reawakens a lively consciousness of
the traditional friendly relations
among the rulers and the people of
both nations It will also remove the
misunderstandings which the sensa
tional press has created and nourish
ed Prince Henrys visit will certainly
clear the atmosphere improve the re
lation and revivify the cordiality
which has always existed between the
two governments
It will be remembered that the
Kreuz Zeitung was one of the most
hostile critics of the United States in
1S98 which attitude it has since main
tained

MISS STONE BELIVED TO BE YET

AMERICAN OFFICIALS ALARMED
The Delay in Release Arouses Appre
hension Brother of the Missionary
Anxiously Awaiting Tsilkas Com
plicity is Doubted
WASHINGTON Feb 20 The state
departments advices concerning Miss
Stone indicate that the Paris publica
tion to the effect that sho had been
set at liberty is to say the least pre
mature It is gathered however from
the reports of the United States diplo
matic agents that the woman is likely
to be released very soon and that tho
delay is explained by the requirement
of the brigandB that they bo gtven am
ple opportunity to Insure their safety
LONDON Feb 20 A dispatch from
Seres European Turkoy to the Daily
Telegram says that W W Peet treas
urer of the American mission at Con
stantinople has gone to that city and
that N Garguilo dragoman of the
American legation at Constantinople
and Dr House the missionary who
are still at Seres are growing very
anxious at the delay in the release of
the captives which was expected a
week ago Tho Turkish government
declines responsibility for the matter
says the dispatch as the transaction
with the brigands was made without
its knowledge
CONSTANTINOPLE Feb 20 The
reports of the release of Miss Stone
are absolutely without foundation al
though her liberation is expected mo
mentarily
BOSTON Feb 20 No word from
Treasurer Peet of the headquarters of
the American board of foreign mis
sions at Constantinople has come to
the board here announcing the release
by the brigands of Miss Ellen M Stone
and the officials have been In commun
ication with the state department in
Washington in a vain effort to confirm
the story published in Paris that Miss
Stone and her companion had been de
livered to the officials of the American
legation at Constantinople
Rev Dr Judson Smith secretary of
the board said
We expect that the moment au
thentic news is known in Constantino
pie that Miss Stone has been delivered
over we shall receive word of it from
Mr Peet
Concerning the arrest of Rev Mr
TsiKra husband of Miss Stones com
panion in captivity on the ground of
complicity in the abduction of Miss
Stone and his wife Samuel B Capen
president of the American board said
I know absolutely nothing about it
I would not be surprised if it were true
thai he was arrested but I dont be-
lic o there is a particle of truth in the
cha p that he was implicated in the
abdrction
Charles A Stone brother of the cap
tive missionary also had received no
information about the release He
said
I expect news that she is released
I am expecting a cablegram at any mo
ment It may come from my sister
personally or it may come from some
one authorized by her to send it I
think that if she has been released I
as well as the American board would
hear as quickly as would the news
papers and perhaps quicker I fear
that perhaps the newspaper corre
spondents took it for granted that she
was released knowing the time exact
ed for her liberation aftpr the ransom
had been paid

What the Track Coil
Few persons know that on a railway
line like the Santa Fe it costs nearly
as much to renew ties 935000 year
ly as is paid to station agents and
station clerks that the annual repairs
of roadway and track 2350000 ex
ceed the salaries of trainmen and traf
fic clerks that the renewal of rails
626000 costs almost as much as tho
telegraph service that watchmen and
track walkers draw nearly as much
money 137000 as is paid out for
stationery and printing that the item
of rail fastenings 250000 a year
exceeds the expense of legal service
But it pays to have the track just
right
