New York. Oct. 19.-Vice Chancellor
Pitney in Jersey City to-day heard fur
Their arguments on the rule to snow
cause why the Consolidated, Contin-
entail and American Tobacco Compa-
MES should not be restrained from car
rying out the proposed merger.
After hearing the arguments of botn
sides, Vice Chancellor Pitney dissolV-
ed the temporary injunction and DIS
missed the bill of complaint. On Oct.
II. Allan H. Strong of counsel for the
complainant raised a question as 10
whether the Morton Trust Company
as trustee really had the bonds, which
the promoters of the merger claimed
it had. The court appointed Halsey
M. Barrett, a master, to examine the
bonds, and to-day he HANDED up MS
report, but it was not tiled.
Counsel for the promoters said that
the report would show that there Is
on deposit with the trust company
more than a majority of the loi'OOV'UoO
Of bonds necessary for the directors
TO carry out the scheme. Mr.: otrons'
however said that some or the DoIlus
had been signed, thereby making dup
litations possible. Mr.. Strong con-
tended that the only way to ascertain
with correctness the amount OF pon1s
held by the company was by FURNISH
ing the number of each bond, ana that
the bonds must have been owned py
the signers of the proposed contract
at the time they signed.
The court said that the best con-
tract nossible would be the depositing

Relations of Capital and Labor. pre-
scented lengthy report which touched
upon certain evils the committee found
and discussed the industrial situation
at great length.
The report says in part:
while We condemn the tyranny and
turbulence of the labor union and call
upon the law to preserve the liberty of
every citizen to employ whom he will
and to work for whom he will, we dep
recate the hasty temper, which, in
condemning the errors of the unions,
condemns at the same time the whole
movement with which they are con-
nected. The offenses of the union are
as distinct from the cause for which
the organization of labor stands, as the
lnquisition is distinct from the gospel.
In the face of a prejudice and a
hostility for which there are serious
reasons, we are convinced that the
organization of labor is essential to
the we'll being of the working people.
Its purpose is to maintain such a
standard of wages, hours and condi-
lions as shall afford every man an
opportunity to grow in mind and in
heart. Without organization the
standard cannot be maintained in
the midst of our present commercial
conditions.
The employment of children in
factories and mills depresses wages,
destroys homes and depreciates the
human stock Whatever interferes
with the proper nurture and educa-
tion of a child contradicts the best
interests of the nation. We call, then,
on Christian employers, and on
Christian parents, to endeavor after
such betterment of the local and gen.
eral laws as shall make the labor of
children impossible in this Christian
country"

in the South and recommended that
larger appropriations be made for it.

RUSSIAN COLONEL WOUNDED
IN DESPERATE FIGHT.
Cars Men Fighting Hard for the
Ground They Lost.

GEOuhu Ahey AOSN.
With the Russian Center Army, Oct.
IS, by Courier to Mukden, Via
Pekin, Oct. 10. The fighting
which luned for time on
Oct. Is. was renewed on Oct. 16,
when the Russians holding positions
on the north bank of the Shakhe riv-
err continually exchanged an artillery
fire with the Japanese.
The hardest fighting was IN the
center, where two regiments of Rus
sian infantry made a desperate at
tack on the night of Oct. 16, capturing
two Japanese batteries of eight guns
each. 1t was an exhaustive undertake
ing, however, as the Russians lost a
great many men The colonel COM
handing was dangerously wounded.
The Japanese were compelled To de-
stroy their ammunition. The fighting
all that night was most severe, both
sides suffering heavily. During the
progress Of the infantry fight the or
tillery kept up a bombardment.
On the morning of Oct. II the Rus
sian center held positions twelve miles
south of Mukden. on the main wagon
road, while the left had fallen farther
back to the northeast. Just before
noon the Japanese guns found the
main road, and a village Smelling them
with rapidity. but without doing any
great damage.
Toward evening the battle lulled, but
during the night the Russian center
made two combined infantry and artil-
lery attacks. which resulted in the Sc
curing of new positions, about half q
mile in advance.
These attacks were made during a
downpour of rain and were successful
in giving the Russians possession of a
small stretch of the ground over which
they retired last week.

LABOR'S TURBULENCE
CONDEMNED BY BISHOPS
Episcopal Bishops Set Divorce Question as Spe.
clal Order for To-day

Boston, Oct. 1s.-An attempt was
made to-day by the Committee on
Canons of the Episcopal House of
Deputies to arrange compromise be-
tween that body and the House of
BISHOPS.
The bishops had adopted amend
ments forbidding the remarriage of d.
vorced persons, while the deputies had
declined 20 adopt so rigid a provision,
Notwithstanding the fact that a ma
1ority of them took a stand similar
to that of the House of Bishops.
The Committee on Canons offered a
resolution compelling divorced persons
seeking remarriage to wait one year
after the decree of the court has been
issued before the solemnization of the
ceremony. By this resolution, which
referred to the innocent person in a
divorce for infidelty only, it was
hoped to secure at least a temporary
agreement between the two forces.
After some debate the divorce issue
was made a special order for to-mor-
row.
The deputies devoted large part
of the day to the consideration of a
request from several dioceses. for per-
mission to use the revised version of
the Bible in churches. When the
house was divided, the request was re-
fused by a majority of both clerical
and lay delegates. DR.. C. f. Gram
mer of Norfolk, Va, was among those
who spoke for the revised version.
Tho House of IDENTITIES adODtpd the
proposed canon establishing courts of
review. The house concurred with the
bishops in appointing a joint commits
sion to consider the question of in
shutting a system of suffragan bishops.

rari, Archbishop of Milan, and a close
friend of the Pope. have petitioned him
personally to consider whether the mo-
ment has not arrived to allow Cath
olics to participate in the general elec-
lions.
According to the petitioners, their
abstention from voting during the last
thirty-four years has brought no adj
vantage TO the claims of the Vatican,
while IL has seriously endangered the
interests of religion by entrusting
power to the open enemies Of the
church. The Pope has not yet taken a
decision, but he has asked for the opin-
ion of the most authoritative cardi-
mails.
