Cincinnati, Sept. 3.-Before he left
the city Friday, President Pulliam
gave notice that Dan McGann, first
baseman of the New Yorks, had been
indefinitely suspended and Bill Dab
len, shortstop of the same team, set
down until September 6. for unbecom-
ing conduct ON the field in this city
last Wednesday. McGann will be re-
instated only upon assurance of com
plete good conduct in the future. The
case of Frank Bowerman, who as
saulted a spectator during the same
game, will not be touched on by the
National league unless President
Hermann, of the Cincinnati club, files
charges against Bowerman, as Um-
pire thinner did not see the assault.

ing into the United States treasury
the sum of s423,O00 as "unexpended

which brought in the winning run in
the second game, large number of
the 1897 persons who witnessed the
game surged out upon the diamond

SITUATION is CRITICAL.
Effort to Settle Engineers Wage Scale
Dispute Was Fruitless.

New York, Sept. 2.-Another fruit
less effort to settle the threatened
trouble between the Interborough
Rapid Transit Co. and the employees
was made Thursday by committees
representing both interests. At the
conclusion of the meeting the an
nouncement was made that no agree
ment had been reached.
Mr.. Belmont was of the opinion that
the situation would be adjusted with
out serious trouble.
Assistant Grand President Stone, of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers, took more pessimistic view.
"The situation is critical" said he.
Speaking of the conference Mr.. Bel
agree, but the committee is consider
ing proposition and another confer
ence will be held at which hope to
have the trouble adjusted. l do not
believe there will be any strike and
think everything will come out all
right in the end"
Mr.. Stone later made a public state
ment in which he said: "The electri1
engineers of the Interborough railroad
asked that the wage scale and hours
of labor now In effect on the INTERIOR
ough (namely SO for nine hours-the
company only offers SO for ten hours)
be extended to the subway operated
by the same corporation. The state
ment that we are asking for an in
crease in wages is wrong.
"The claim of the company that
they can get all the motormen they
want at cheaper rate for longer
hours is perhaps true in some sense,
but what kind of motormen will they
be? l have no doubt If they adopted
still lower rate they could still get
men,"
Mr.. Stone pointed out that it was
the intention of the company to put in
service in the subway that is faster
than any in the United States.
He declared that II was all mere
talk to compare these surface motor
men who handle light car weighing
20 tons running at a speed of ten or 15
miles per hour, with one of the sub
way trains of 300 tons running at 45
or so miles per hour and say the work
is the same and that the surface men
can go into the subway and do the
work.

that the French vessel and the re-
mainder of her crew have perished.

RUSSIAN RETREAT CUT OFF.

| Mukden, Sept. 6.-PreparationS for
the evacuation of Mukden are pro-
ceeding. The Japanese advance is
within 80 miles.
London, Sept. 6.-The Daily Mail
this morning prints a dispatch from
Sinmintin, dated September 5, giving
report that Gen. Kuropatkin's re-
treat has been cut off.
The dispatch goes on to say that the
Russian troops had advanced in
strong force to the south of Mukden
as far as Japing Hill to oppose any
possible attack in the direction of
their advance.
A Chinese official who arrived from
Mukden on Sunday says that the Rus
sian troops are leaving for the north,
that there are 10000 men ten miles
to the east of the city.
st. Petersburg, Sept. GA sum-
mary of the war situation to date
shows that the whole Russian army,
or at least the main portion of it, is
| already above Yentai station and is
pushing on toward Mukden.
Field Marshal Oyama's entire army
has crossed the Taitse river and part
of 1t is hanging on to Kuropatkin's s
flank.
A strong flanking column on the
east is pushing rapidly north in the
effort to head off the Russians.
Against this column Kuropatkin has
sent out strong cavalry division to
the northeast which it is believed is
already in position to check the jap
anese flank, while to the westward
kuropatkin is moving division to-
wards Sinmintin, 80 miles west of
Mukden, to meet any interference that
may be attempted from the direction
of Yinkow or New Chwang.
The Japanese have thrown a strong
fanking column across the Taitse
river at Benitzu, about so miles north
east of Lao Yang. This column is
hurrying to the northeast and endeav-
oring to get in between the Russian
army and Mukden. 1t is against this
movement that Kuropatkin has sent
Gen. Rennenkampff with a strong Cos
sack division which it is believed is
already blocking the eastern high
road.
Kuropatkin estimates his losses up
to and including September at &c.
600. This is considered to be a very
conservative figure. The loss to the
Japanese will probably be double this
number, owing to their position as at
tackers.
Kuropatkin says nothing regarding
the loss of guns, but it is probable
that some of the heavier emplaced
guns at Liao Yang had to be aban-
doned.
Che Foo, Sept. 6.-Advices from
Port Arthur say that following the
terrific bombardment of the fortress
for the five days ending September /,
heaps of Japanese bodies were remov-
ed by the Chinese under orders given
by the Port Arthur authorities.

JAPs TOOK LAO YANG.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 5.-Gen. Stalk
elberg's First Siberian army corps,
which was reported on Saturday by
Gen. Kuropatkin as having been cut
off to the westward of Lao Yang, has
been safely extricated.
Gen. Kuropatkin telegraphed Satur-
day evening that the greater portion
of his army was then south of Yentai,
about ten miles northeast of Lao
Yang, and that the other portion of it
was crossing the Taitse river and TAX
ing up position on the right bank.
The war office is able to make the
reassuring statement that the Russian
retreat from Lao Yang did not in
volve the loss of guns, and it also de-
clares that the abandoned stores at
Lao Yang were set on fire before the
Russians crossed the Taitse river.
Toxic, Sept. 5.-Field Marshal
Oyama, telegraphing Sunday morning,
says:
After the fighting of last night and
this morning Lao Yang fell into our
hands. Our casualties are believed to
be very heavy. No report has been
received concerning conditions on the
right bank of the Taitse river"
Although full details are lacking,
the duration of the fighting. the num-
be-s engaged and the losses so far re-
ported indicate that Lao Yang will
prove to be one of the greatest battles
of history.

falling of an elevator in the store of
