MERCHANTS DISCUSS
IMPORTANT MATTERS
Mercantile Association VIII
Get erPeddlers-Talked
on Trading Stamps

The Mercantile Association talked on all
manner OF things al the meeting last
evening but a rather definite action re-
suited by the getting ready for NUM-
ber of movements for advantage Of the
retailers. War will be waged on peddlers
Of al kinds who sell goods without IL
cense. II has been discovered that the sale
of soap from house to house is in most
cases a violation of the peddling ordinance
and it lisp roposed TO put an end to this
at once. James ONeil ana George Bader
were named as committee Of two to go
to the police commissioners to ask that
action be taken In the matter.
The trading stamp problem was dis
cusscd further and good progress was
reported by the committee In charge. A
great deal OF quiet work has been done
In the past two weeks. The membership
OF the association has been enlarged, and
in every way the organization has been
greatly strengthened. A persistent cam
paign is being made to enlarge the use
fuiness Of the movement now under way
and 4 is expected that within the neNi
two weeks the Mercantile Association vii
be In a position to take definite action.
There was some discussion of the Con

succeed today in crossing the Tai river.
General Kuroki yesterday captured a
portion Of the heights commanding
Heiyingtai and it is hoped that he will
dominate the railroad today.
The Russians appear to be gathering
at Yentain colllery, northeast of Lao
yang.
The Japanese are confident that they
have already swept back the strong
Russian force with which they have
been engaged, and it is probable that
when the details are known it will be
found that a great tragedy has been
enacted along the Tai river.
The river Is flooded and cannot be
forded. General Oku, in command Of
the Japanese left army, has directed
his energies TO forcing the Russians to
the river. and it is probable that many
were drowned there.
A private dispatch received here re-
ports that great fires are raging at LAO
yang. This statement is not confirmed
officially. The fires are believed to re-
suit from the Japanese shelling or from

their stores preparatory to the evacua
tion of Lia~ang. with the additional
hope OF lnjUsng the city as n future
japanese bass.
Unofficial estimates place the Rus
sian forces I. the vicinity Of Lao
yang at fiftcGR divisions of 1900 men
each. These are probably excessive,
but It is evident that numerically the
Russians exceed the japanese. The
opinion that the Russian casualties in
the recent fighting will reach 10000 is
confidently expected in high quarters
here
1t seems that the japanese avoided a
direct assault upon Liaoyang itself. but
devoted their energies TO the troops
outside the city and an effort to cut of
the Russian retreat Liaoyang is
strongly fortified, and it is probable that
the japanese will not attack the city
directly until they have succeeded in
isolating It, Should the Russians
abandon Liaoyang the Japanese will
of course enter.

The lack OF definite Information from

that Kur0patkin has Withdrawn the

HEAVY FINE IMPOSED ON
MAN WHO ASSAULTED BOY
Knocked Lad Down and Then
Proceeded to Brutally
Kick Him

Twenty dollars and costs for brutally
asslulting a boy, was the penalty meted
out to John Metner by Judge Edwin r.
Cochran in City Court this morning. The
boy was Samuel Potesk and though the
assault occurred two weeks ago. Agent
Frank Stout of the Humane Societies
said this morning that the lad still bore
evidences of the treatment he received
at Metners hands.
The evidence was to the effect that Met
ner struck the youngster with his fist
knocking him down. He then proceeded
to kick him. The defendant in his own
defense claimed that Potesld hit his son
in the face. He denied kicking the boy but
admitted slapping him.
Mr.. Stout called the Courts attention
to the fact that heavy fine was imposed
on Metner some time ago for brutaliy as
saulting his own son, the boy he was
taking up for when he assaulted Poteski.
When Judge Cochran imposed sentence
upon the defendant. his wife, who was in
the court burst into tears.

patches from st. Petersburg. "the river
itself becomes an important factor in
the general scheme of Russian de-
fense.n
Dispatches from both Russian and
japanese sources indicate that the
troops on both sides are jaded and
weary after the many days fighting,
and it is pointed out that in conse-
quence a temporary lull in the active
struggle would not be surprising.
A dispatch received at Tokyo says
that great fires are raging at Liaoyang
'believed to result from japanese
shelling or from the efforts Of the Rus
slams to destroy their stores prepare
tory to the evacuation Of Liaoyang
with the additional hope of injurinl
the city as a future japanese base"
The opinion prevails in the japanese
capital that the Russian casualties II
the recent fighting will reach 10000
while the Russian losses of Aug. 3
and Sept. 1 are given in official reports
as 5000 killed or wounded.
The report from Marshal Oyam'
that he was engaged on Thursday will

that at least a portion Of Kuropatkin'
army was still on the south bank o.

II is not yet definitely stated that The

EARLY MORNING ATTACK.
Japanese Attempt to Prevent Russians
From Crossing the Tai.

Haicheng, Sept. 3.-A great battle
ragged all of yesterday west of the rail
road between Shaling and Liaoyang
General Oku's forces attempting TO
prevent three divisions of the Russian
army from crossing the Tai river. Gen
eral NOdzu's batteries on the south and
west of Liaoyang have swept the de
fenses OF that city and have prevented
force estimated at between 10000
and 100000 from assisting the retreat
ing Russian forces bent on the relief
Of General Kuropatkin.
The battle began before dawn, and
two ambulance trains filed with Japa-
nese wounded have come in here. The
fighting has been desperate and II is
believed that General Okus forces will
either drive thousands of the Russians
into the flooded Tai river or compel
their surrender practically in sight Of
greater Russian force cooped up in
Liaoyang by General Nodzu's enor-
nous force OF guns.
General Oku has in action the Eighth
and Eleventh divisions, comprising
eight regiments Of infantry, three of
artillery and two of cavalry. estimated
here at $1,000 fighting men, against a
demoralized army said not 10 exceed
three divisions. or about $4,000, as the
Russians figure their brigades. In the
dawn attack Oku's infantry captured
the slopes south of Shaling and. his
artillery breaking the Russian center,
compelled rapid retirement, which
did not permit the Russians to take
their heaviest guns from the north side
of the Shaling hills.
A rear guard action toward the river
was in furious progress when the last
of the wounded arrived here at s
O'Clock in the evening
The Russian forces that have gone
across the Tai are supporting General
Ivanoff. who is fighting a battle on the
east side Of the railroad near Yentha
with General Kurokrs right and cen
ter. General Kuroki's left still remains
south of the Tai river and northeast
of Liaoyang. holding a position in the
slopes OF the Sheng mountains. whicl
will prevent the Russians from NOV
ing out OF Liaoyang toward the east.

once. At the same time the Amalga-
mated Association of Street and Elec-
trio Railway Employees, embracing ali
the men on the elevated roads with
the exception of the engineers, voted to
stand by the other unions and to make
common issue with them against the
Interborough company.
The vote for supporting the ultima
tum stood 3,OS1; against it, 81; noncom-
initial, 3; total, 3,O65. The vote was
subsequently made unanimous.
The men cheered themselves hoarse
when the result of the ballot was an
nounced, and most OF them expressed
themselves as against further delay in
ordering the strike.
IT'S Up to Belmont.
The only thing that can prevent a
complete tie-up of the elevated roads
is an unqualified surrender on the part
Of August Belmont and the making of
the subway a union and not a non
union road. That the Interborough
company does not intend to recede
from its position was made apparent
when e. p. Bryan, general manager
OF the subway company, and Frank
Hedley, general superintendent, called
on Commissioner McAdOo and asked
for police protection in case Of a strike
Now that the men have put their un
mistakable stamp Of approval on the
calling of a strike the question OF ways
and means passes from the local Off.
GERS to the chiefs of the international
associations.
1t is the duty of the international Of
ficers TO make a final attempt to adjust
the difficulties amicably Failing in
that strike will be called.
II is said one more conference will
be asked with August Belmont by the
representatives of the men. From the
action Of Messrs. Bryan and Hedley in
asking for police protection the labor
leaders do not think there is any
chance Of the Interborough company
acceding to their demands. When thi,
refusal is made the international lead
ers will order the strike
1t is the general opinion among the
men that the strike will be ordered OF
Tuesday about o'clock.
