Police war ON Poo1rooms.

NEW YORK, May 21.-In the war
fare upon poolrooms which has been
waged with unwonted yigor during the
last week blow has been struck by
the police which, it is asserted, will go
far toward driving gamblers out Of
this city. Twenty-Five raids were made
upon suspected places, and no less
than sixty-nine men were taken prison
ers. The raids were made in widely
separated districts and attracted crowds
that blocked traffic. Coincident with
the defeat Of the poolroom proprietors
comes the announcement that they and
others will begin a campaign against
the race tracks and by appeals to pub
lie opinion, the courts and the legisla-
ture, backed by powerful influences,
they will seek to Danish racing from
this state.

r.. G.. Dun & Cp. Report Good Pros
poets For All Farm Produce.
NEW YORK, May 21.-Reports of
increased trade are received from
few favored points, but the nation as
a whole has not improved its CONNER
cial position during the past week in
80 far as current distribution of mer-
chandise or manufacturing activities
are concerned. Prospects for the fu-
ture have improved somewhat on ac-
count of the progress made in agri-
culture. Unless the crops suffer an
unusual setback hereafter it should
re good year for the farms, and all
other industries will feel the stimulus.
Lake traffic is seriously interrupted by
the strike, but otherwise the labor stu
alton is not alarming. Boston reports
weather adverse and trade below nor
NAL, while building operations are also
reduced.
Liabilities of commercial failures
thus far reported for May aggregated
SO, 759, 581, of which $1,529,7O0 were in
manufacturing, $1,6O9,68 In trading
and $620,17S in other commercial lines.
Failures this week numbered 236 in
the United States against 191 last year,
and IL in Canada compared with IA a
year ago.

government VIII Take strong Meas
ures In Moroccan Outrage.
WASHINGTON, May 21.-A Tangier
report says United States Consul Gen
eraI Gummere, at Tangier, Morocco,
has learned that the brigand band
which captured Perdicaris, an Ameri-
can citizen, and Cromwell Marley, a
British subject, is the same that cap
fured Mr.. Harris, the London Times
correspondent, last year.
Besides capturing the men, members
of the band assaulted the ladies Of the
Pcrdicaris party. The British and
American Representatives at Tangier
are taking energetic measures to OBJ
tain the release of the captives, and
the Moorish authorities are assisting
them.
Raisuli, the brigand chief who cap
tured Messrs Perdicaris and Marley,
has sent a number of his men to OBJ
tain bedding and linen for the pris-
oners.
Mohammed ell Torres, the represent
alive of the sultan at Tangier, is ne
gotiating with RAisuli.
United States Senator Dryden, at
Newark, N. J., has wired to Washing
ton as follows:
~ respectfully urge that you take
vigorous measures to secure the re-
leAse of Mr.. Perdicaris, an American
citizen OF Trenton, who has been cap
tured by bandits, and cause the pun
ishment of his captors."
Acting Secretary Loomis has in
ntructed Consul Gummere by cable to
act with the greatest Eigor and de-
mand of the Moorish government that
1t take the most sweeping measures
TO secure the release Of Mr.. Perdicaris
even If necessary to accede to the
terms OF the brigands. After consulta-
zion with Admiral Taylor, chief of the
navigation bureau, the naval measures
resolved on were strengthened consid-
erably. Admiral Chadwick when he
reaches Fayal in few days will re-
ceiye orders to proceed with the whole
south Atlantic squadron to Tangier,
while Admiral Jewell, with the newly
formed European squadron, who is
about three days behind Admiral
Chadwick, will be ordered to follow to
Tangier If the emergency still exists.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, May 21.-A
brutal attack was made last evening
upon a daughter of prominent Yale
professor. AS the young lady was
walking through Humphrey street at
about half past s, after mailing let
ter, a man crept stealthily UP behind
her, suddenly covering her eyes with
his hands and then struck a succession
of binding blows across her face and
eyes, finally throwing her down back
ward, still continuing the blows in the
face. Her screams for assistance
quickly aroused the neighborhood, and
the assailant disappeared. This second
case is similar to that of Miss Augusta
Peterson and not far distant from
where that young woman was struck
upon the head and felled There is as
yet no clew to the assaiIant.

GENERAL RENNENkAMPFF. y
strike heavy blow when it should be
so distant from the main Japanese ar
my as to prevent its easy reinforce
ment. In observing this plan the Rus
slams withdrew, and the Japanese, not
finding strong force of the enemy be-
fore them, continued to advance. When
the time for action came General Ku-
ropatkin let General Rennenkampff
loose from the leash
General Rennenkampff had under his
command only few regiments, but
they were the flower of the Cossack
cavalry, and he fell on the enemy,
whose number has not yet been re-
vealed, with such vigor as to compel
the Japanese retirement twelve miles
toward the base near enough, it is pre-
sumed, to have received re-enforce-
ments from General Kuroki, who must
Immediately have been advised Of the
awkward predicament.
The general staff believes General
Rennenkampff's attack must have
been in the nature Of q thunderbolt
He is man to attack quickly and
hard once given the opportunity, and
his men, veterans Of the Chinese cam
paign, had been selected especially be-
cause they had tasted blood and knew
what it was to be under fire. The cas-
ualties sustained by the opposing
forces have not yet been announced.
A Newchwang report, says Japanese
numbering 10000 men came upon 3d.
600 Russians in strong position sixty
miles west of Fengwangcheng. 1t be-
ing unwise to risk battle, the Japa-
nese retreated in good order and with
great rapidity.
The Russians are jubilant over their
reported victory near Fengwangcheng
and consider that, it being Emperor
Nicholas birthday, the victory is good
medicine" for the Japanese.
The latest authentic reports show
that there are two divisions of the
Yalu army. One is moving on Hal
cheng, and the other was going toward
Liaoyang. 1t is believed the Russians
concentrated their forces and struck
the enemy south of Liaoyang, driving
the Japanese back. The reports say
the Japanese loss was heavy.
1t is understood that the siege guns
removed from the Newchwang forts
and taken to the Haicheng forts were
mounted there.
A Tokyo report says in the naval
disasters off Port Arthur Captain Ma
kao, commander of the Hatsuse, was
among those saved from the battIeship
after it was blown up
Among the lost on the Hatsuse were
Commander Tsukamoto, Viscount Nire
Arimori, five second lieutenants, FIVE
engineers, two surgeons, six midship-
men, four engineer cadets and ten war
rant officers.
With the Yoshino were lost Captain
Sack, Commander Hirowateri, three
first and five second lieutenants, five
midshipmen, a paymaster and a sur
geon, three cadets and eight boat
SWANS.
