New York Sun Special Service.
New York, Aug. 27.-Alleging that q
transfer of $1,20O,000 of the capital
stock Of the International Mercantile
Agency to Thomas N. McCauiey, us
former president was fraudulent on
the ground that it was made by a
board of dummy directors, the COM
pany has begun suit against him IN
the United States circuit court for an
accounting.
Zone of the dummy directors who
voted the $1,200,O00 to Mr.. McCauley
was, it is alleged, Kenneth K. Nc
Laren, of the Corporation Trust COM
pany of New Jersey. who inquired In
the organization of the Miller $40 per
cent get-rich-quick swindle, and the
pany. McLaren is said to be di-
rector in nearly 1900 corporations
chartered in Jersey.
So bitter are some of the directors
of the company against McCauley,
who resigned the presidency on March
charges against him at the district at
torneys office and have tried to get
MIR. Jerome to institute prosecution.
Mr.. McCauley, who is a millionaire,
declares emphatically that certain
people were trying to blackmail him.
Mr.. McCauley visited the district at
torneys office Thursday and had a
long conference with Mr.. Caravan.
In the suit for an accounting, it is
alleged that Mr.. McCauley as presi-
dent had charge of selling it's treasury
stock that he sold large blocks Of the
stock. but instead of delivering the
shares in the treasury Of the company
made deliveries from his own block of
$1,200,000 and converted the receipts
to his own use.
Some Of the directors Of the COM
pany are William R. Merriam, eX-gov
ernor Of Minnesota; Delos P. Phelps,
former assistant treasurer Of the
United States: J. B. Foraker, Jr..
George w. Sadler. Ross M. Turner and

THE. WA. nor THE WEEK

Again thesIapanese have anticipated
the plans Of the Russians by striking
first. kuropatkinKWas about to take
the offensive; when kurokrS and the
other Japanese generals In the north
suddenly resumed operations, striking
a blow Wedne sday in an attempt to
cut the Russian line between An
shan-shan, southwest of Liao-yang,
and Liam dlan-sian southeast Of the
Russian base about twenty three
miles. From kuropatl<In,s report It
appears the Japanese attack was I'M
expected, and extended from the Tai
tse river southwark and westward. A
movement OF troops up the valley Of
the Lao Indicates that the Japanese
\ expect also to strike from the west.
In the fighting, often hand to hand,
(, which has continued since Wednesday,
the honors seem to be about even.
1t Is evident from the Japanese prep
aratlons to dispose Of tks dead that
they expect tosmake the, enlightenment

At Port Arthur there seems to have
been cessation of the fierce as
saults.
How the Japanese have been gath
erIng their forces and Increasing the
pressure around Port Arthur, and why
the early collapse Of the defense seems
Inevitable, Is shown from the accom-
panylng map and the explanation
which follows.
The main movement began with the
attack on and capture of the Wolf
hills, to the north and northeast,
which the Russians evacuated July
80. The Japanese then occupied the
hills near suel ze.ylng g{probabIy
sulsh hIlD,, where they erected two
forts to protect the further advance
Of forces to- the east. Pail chwang
(Pa-Ilen- chens) was also fortified and
Is held by the Japanese, tho they
were reported to have abandoned 1t
owing to enfiIadIng fire from the kee-
kwan and Antszshan (An-tse shan)
forts. But Antszshan, one Of the
principal forts of the Russians on the
west, has since been stormed by the
Japanese, so that PaIi-chwans can be
held with safety.
Along with the capture Of Antsz-
shan came that of Etszshan (E-tse-
shan), apparently the key to the west
ern line of defenses. Then Louisa bay
was gained by the besiegers, and
after that all of the forts around
Pigeon bay, giving way for the Japan
csc to pass southwark along the coast
as far as Llau-tIe- shan (Liao- sham.
Golden hill, LIau-tIe (LIao-tD noun
tain, and White Marble mountain
probably the short range just: east
Of Llau-tIe), according to Chinese ad-
vices dated Aug. %, were the only
main forts securely held by the Rus
slams. Others are occupied by them,
but are subjected to an artillery Sire
which renders their tenure uncertain.
The Japanese thus have been able
not only to complete the Investment
of Port Arthur from sea to sea, but
