DENOUNCED KIDNAPPERS
Macedonian Committee Accused of
Abducting Mi6s Ellen M. Stone.
Sofia, Dec. 2. —M. Mihialowsky, pres
ident of the Macedonian committee,
recently made a speech at Varna, in
Bulgaria, In which he denounced M.
Sarafof, former president of the com
mittee, and the Macedonians as agita
tors, murderers and blackmailers.
Among other crimes, he accused them
of kidnapping Miss Ellen M. Stone,
the American missionary. The Mace
donians of Sofia held an indignation
meeting here yesterday. Violent
speeches were made denouncing M.
Mihialowsky, and In which M. Sarafof
was eulogized as the hero of Mace
donian youth. This incident is import
ant, as demonstrating the schism in
the Mecedonlan camp.
Reports received here from Bub
nitza announce increased vigilance on
the part of the authorities and the po
lice of that place. Bulgarian official
circles are evidently much impressed
by the menacing attitude of the United
States government in the Stone affair.
They declare, however, that they are
unable to do any more in the matter
than they have done already.
Fatally Wounded By Son.
Greenfield, Ind., Dec. 2. —Robert
Glasscock, aged 70 years, a prominent
farmer living near Greenfield, was
shot and probably fatally wounded by
his 17-year-old son. The boy was ar
rested and lodged In Jail at this place.
He claims that his father came home
intoxicated and began abusing the
family. After the father had struck
him with a broomstock he flre-i at
him, intending to frighten him olf, as
he had done on other occasions when
his father had assaulted him. The
bullet entered the father's right lung,
and physicians have but slight hopes
of his recovery.

New York, Nov. 30.—Fire at the
German Lutheran Orphans' Home at

TRAGEDY *T NORRISTOWN
Girl Shot By Sweetheart, Who Then
Attempts Suicide.
Vorristown, Pa., Dec. 2. —Standing
on the side porch of her home, on
fie Kalb street, Florence Hampton, 18
years old, was shot and probably fa
tally wounded Saturday by her sweet
heart, Leon Sisler. The latter attempt
ed suicide by turning the weapon
against himself. Roth are in a critical
condition at the Charity Hospital, and
the physicians say that Miss Hamp
ton's v -c -flr- is extremely doubtful.
Sisler i.i i n arrest. Isaiah Hamp
ton, t) >u led girl's father, was
scarce;- 2 f 'e> away when the shoot
ing oc :n .!, ut he saw nothing ow
ing to the lattice work that screens
the porch. He heard two shots in
rapid succession, but thought they
came from a party of duck hunters
along the banks of the Schuylkill
river. Aroused by his wife's screams,
however, he stepped on the porch.
His roai'. v: 1 ocked by the half con
scious to: re of isler, who was bleed
ing front a wou I in the head. In his
hand w;'.3 i< an ill revolver. A short
distance u..aj, Hampton saw his
daughter, lying face downward in a
pool of blood. Standing in the door
way leading to the house was Mrs.
Hampton, motionless at) though frozen
by the horror of the scene.
Sickened at the sight and almost
fainting, yet retaining some presence
of mind, Hampton ran to the street
and hailed a passing trolley car.
Thomas Jones, the conductor, tele
phoned to the Charity Hospital, while
the distracted father went in search
of a doctor. The ambulance arrived
first, and Sisler and his sweetheart
were hurried to the hospital.
When the young man regained con
sciousness at the hospital, ho denied
having done the shooting, and charged
that a man named James Ramsey had
committed the deed. The latter had
been paying attention to the girl, and
Sisler is said to have been extremely
Jealous of him. Ramsey denied the
charge. He gave a satisfactory ex
planation to the police and showed to
them rather clearly that he was not
in town when the deed was commit
ted. The parents of Miss Hampton
express the positive opinion that Sis
ler shot their daughter. It is alleged
that Sisler had threatened to commit
suicide, and showed a pistol with
which he would make way with him
self.

ly sent a valuable gold watch to Mr.
