FIGHT TO FINISH
The Butchers Union Taking Meas.
ures to Wage War Against All
Meat:-lndependent Packers to
Join Forces With the combine.-A
Long Fight.

Chicago, Sept. "a meat famine
will be forced at all cost. 1t is the
best weapon with which TO fight the
trust packers. although it may not
be welcomed by the independents"
In these words President Donnelly Of
the Butchers National organization
today declared a boycott against all
meat and announced that the union
men would quit in all packing estab-
lishments Immediately. regardless OF
where live stock is secured. Donnel-
ly's announcement was made at the
conclusion of meeting of the Allied
Trades conference board.
The executive board of the retail
meat dealers association of Chicago
had just been in conference with
Donnelly and his associates. having
come to ask certain concessions for
tho '~dannnda~t nonLa-s a~d 70 saa'S
authority TO attempt to bring about a
meeting between the packers and re-
Dresentatives of the strikers. BY .ig-
noring these latest attempts at peace
and by adopting such an aggressive
step the strike leaders have demon
strated their intention to fight to
finish.
The indications are that the inde-
pendent packers within the stock
yards enclosure will join the big pack
ers in their fight. while those outside
will endeavor to continue operation
with union crews. Two of their num-
ber received consignments of cattle
At the outside railroad yard today

yards through the streets. Within the
yards the independents are evidently
preparing for war. a wagon loah of
cots having been taken to one plant.
The union switchmen employed by
the Chicago Junction railroad in han
ding stock yards business will send
committee. to the packers today To
urge a plan of settlement, the details
OF which are yet unknown.

Beyond establishing the fact that
Kuropatkin has withdrawn the main
portion of his forces to the north of
the Taitse river. and that the action
is still in progress, today's dispatches
do not give a clear idea of the situ-
alton at Lao Yang. Accepting the
ST. Petersburg dispatch at it's face
value, it would seem that the Russian
commander had effected a partial re-
tiremnt, placing the river between
himself and the main body of the ia
panese. and now occupies the forti-
fed position where he had planned
his second stand. On the other hand.
the Toxic dispatches say that the
Russians were closely pressed and the
march disorganized in the retirement
across the river, while it is not defin-
itely stated that the Japanese have
occupied Lao Yang. Toxic reports
the town of Lao Yang burning. De-
tails of today's fighting are entirely
lacking. The Japanese losses from
August 20 to September l are given
at ten thousand, and the Russian
losses from August 81 to September
at five thousand.
Toxic, 0 a. m.) Sept. 3.-The Rus
slams began to retreat on the right
and center from Liao Yang early on
Thursday. They were thrown into
great confusion while attempting to
cross to the right bank of the Taitse
river. The Japanese pursued them all
day Thursday, and seized the Russian
cannon which they used to shell the
Lao Yang railroad station.
Field Marshal Oyama's right at
tackled a heavy force of Russians in
the vicinity of Haiyingtai, twelve
miles northeast OF Lao Yang at II
o'clock Thursday. His left began at
dawn today pursuing the Russians
toward Tatzho. It is thought that he
will severely punish the Russians.
The Japanese casualties in the Lao
Yang engagement have not yet been
ascertained officially, but it is an
nounced that they will not exceed ten
thousand.
Chief of staff of the center Japan
ese army General Nodzu. te'egraphing
early this morning. reported that the
Japanese center was continuing to
advance today, with the object of
taking the line from Shinchiyen to
Lao Yang and effecting a rs-junction
with the Japanese left commanded
by General Oku.
Admiral Hosoya, commanding the
third Japanese squadron reports that
last Wednesday morning number OF
vessels emerged from Port Arthur
and engaged i'm clearing away the
mines. At 2:25 D. m. one steamer
struck mine and was blown up. The
number of lives lost is unknown.
Admiral Hosoya reports that the
Japanese guard-ship near Yenrao on
Sunday and Monday captured twenty
six Chinese junks which were at
tempting to carry provisions into
Port Arthur. They were confiscated
and the crews released.

day night, and orders were actually
given as stated yesterday. The war
office presumes that the movement
was actually carried out since the
the crossing was not opposed. The
fact was disclosed last night for tAe
first time that the strongest Russian
position prepared by Kuropatkin was
not around Liao Yang, but on the
right or north bank of the Taitse riv-
er 1t is now explained that the Rus
sian commander in chief had all
along anticipated that the Japanese
when they made their advance On
Liao Yang would pursue the identical
tactics which had been successful in
previous stages of the campaign, and
while attacking in front would make
a wide detour to outfiank the Russian
position. This time Kuroparkin was
not mapping. He was prepared 10"
just what happened, and as soon as
WOIu was I0CClNCu tUdI OCIlSI al IAil-
roki had crossed the Taitse river
twenty miles above Lao Yang and
was moving westward, Kuropatkin
met the move by throwing his whole
army over at night BY this strategy
Kuropatkin, in the opinion of the gen
eral staff has gained an immense al
vantage His army is concentrated on
one side of the river and the road is
still open for his retirement north
ward, while the Japanese armies,
which must act in unison are sepa-
rated by the river. which places the
Russian general in position to oppose
Kuroki with his whole army, while
Generals Oku and Nodzu are stranl-
ed on the other side of the river. The
report that telegraphic communication
is cut between Liao Yang and Muk-
den is not admitted at the war Office.

1.-At four this afternoon the war
Office received a dispatch from Peter
hof, sent to the Emperor yesterday
by General Kuropatkin. AS transmit
ted to the war Office for publication
the information is meagre and only
yields truth in the light of interpre-
tation of those conyersant with the
situation at Lao Yang It states that
the artillery battle proceeded until
the hour of sending it and that the
Russians were retiring on their main
positions: that Kuroki was attacking
that the railroad station about a mile
north of Lao Yang was set on fire
by Japanese shells. and that the Rus
sian losses in two days were 5000
killed and wounded. At 80 this af-
ternoon the war Office said ii was en-
tirely without news of today's fight
ing, but added that the railroad be-
tween Lao Yang and Mukden was
open. The suspense in ST. Petersburg
is intense. and the town is full of
victory for Kuropatkin TO
disastrous defeat of the Russians.

Probably Original Plan.

Paris, Sept. 2.-The foreign office
has no confirmation of the Japanese
occupying Lao Yang, but advices
lead the officials to say that it is pro
bable that Kuropatkin has decided
to carry out the original plan to re-
treat to Mukden. This plan, it was
added, was Temporarily abandoned,
as Kuropatkin believed that the de-
fenses of Liao Yang would enable
him to hold back the Japanese. This
failing, il is stated, the Russian COM
mander will attempt to revert to his
original plan, that of effecting his
concentration at Mukden
