Paris, Oct. 10.—A letter received by the Havas agency from Salonica, dated October 6, says: "The American consul here has just received orders to make the ar­ rangements with the vali (governor) for the payment of the ransom of Miss Stone. The United States will advance the money, afterwards set- tliing with Turkey. “The Turkish authorities have made numerous arrests among the Bulgarian population, without dis­ tinction of religion, and nearly all have teen put to torture in the hope of abstracting information. A prison­ er named Dimtri said an under­ standing existed between the protes­ tants and the Macedoonian commit­ tee, and that Miss Stone was even acting in concert with them with the view of obtaining funds for a political-religious propaganda. These declarations, wrung from Dimitri un­ der torture, are valueless. What is certain is that the captain of the band designated for the payment of the ransom a place in the proximity of the Roumanian frontier, which proves that he hopes to escape the Turkish police, and that the Bulga­ rian police do not cause him anxiety. “The condition of affairs is shown by the fact that five or six bands of brigands of 12 to 15 men each have become so bold between Strumitza and Kuprili that the officials of the Oriental railroad have requested the military authorities to reinforce the troops guarding the track and bridges. ” St. Cor.
