Sultan’s Cruelty Responsible for Abduction - of Missionary. b Al BERKELEY, Oct. 19.—A recital of the facts surrounding the abduction of Miss Ellen M. Stone in Turkey, the people who have done it and their motives, is given by Veltcho Nickoloff Madoleff, a Mace- donian at present in this city, and who claims to be a member of the Macedonlan Soclety and in direct communication with the celebrated Macedonian committee. He clalms a personal acquaintance with Miss Stone, his native village, Beletesa. being but three miles from where she was captured. With his knowledge of the people and affairs there he belleves that he is able jo give correct reasons for her capture. According to Madoleff Miss Stone was taken Into captivity by brigands from his own people and possibly members of the Macedonian Soclety. He declares em- phatically, however, that the act was without the knowledge or connivance of either the Macedonian committee or the Bulgarfan Government. The brigands who took Miss Stone have one purppse only for their act, and that is to secure money with which to pugchase arms to revenge themselves against the Turks for outrages committed on tne Maceaoniuns. | The brigands, according to Madoleff, are a comparatively ignorant people, who recognized in Miss Btone an opportunity for bountiful ransom. In speaking of them Magloleff said: Robbed by the Turks. The brigands are men who have been robbed by the Turks or have had their wives or daugh- ters forced Into Turkish wifedom by offictals They have gone to the mountains with the avowed purpose of revenge.

Maus, inspector general of the Department of ifornia, in h!s report on | the last annual inspection of the military | department of the University of Calitor- nia, held during the latter part of the | spring term of this year, has recommend- |ed several important and interesting changes to the United States army authorities concerning the cadet corps. made public to-day at the higaly ment. ommends that there be held an annua! cadet encampment week. He states that the general Govern ment would promote military efli { by providing for the encampm way of liberal appropriations for temtuge, camp and garrson equipage for rcgular field service. Target practice, he says, should be held during the encampment. Colonel us believes that the Govern- ment would advance the interests of its | Department of War by seeing that such | institutions as *he University of Calitor- | nfa_are not lacking in funds to fustruct | thelr students<in military science. He makes another important recom- ! mendation from the student standpoint, | and that is that all college men who.are working their wiy through the university receive free uniforms from the Govern- ment. He also recommends that such military clothiag as can be spaned by the general Goverament be xold to the ¢ dets upon the approval of the proper college : and military authorities. tloncl Muus in his report says: I found the clothing, arms and equip- | ment of the cadets complete and in very e R ks v Jotabhan Tood condition, and the step, military ap- et uln.
