   A Break for Code Breakers on a C.I.A. Mystery

   By KENNETH CHANG

   For nearly 16 years, puzzle enthusiasts have labored to decipher an
   865-character coded message stenciled into a sculpture on the
   grounds of the Central Intelligence Agency's headquarters in
   Langley, Va. This week, the sculptor gave them an unsettling but
   hopeful surprise: part of the message they thought they had
   deciphered years ago actually says something else.
