filiation.
While there are five candidates for
the Republican mayoralty nomination
only three are making an active cam
paign. OF these Byron Mauzy is the
candidate of the Independent Republi-
can clubs and William Crocker, NOM
mated by the business mems commit
tee of twenty-five, is said to have the
support of the regular Republican or

committee is supporting Mauzy.

HOSTILE FORCES
COME TOGETHER
WAR GAME IN MASSACHUSETTS
is WELL PLAYED
Army of Invasion Captures Scouts of
Defenders and First Bloody" En-
gagement Is Expected to
Take Place Today
GBy Associated Press.I

ROCK STATION, Mass, Aug. 16.-
For the first time since the beginning
of the war game between the armies
of the red and the blue, the two forces
tonight were in very close touch. A
general engagement is likely tomorrow.
The situation follows a day which
proved eventful as deciding on which
side of the group of lakes Gen. Tasker
H Bliss, commanding the red army,
would make his advance. While he
sent the Tenth cavalry and the Four
teenth New York infantry toward Ny
ricks Stations, on the extreme west
this movement was only feint and
the real advance was along the eastern
end of the line. Tonight the headquar-
ters of the commander-in-chief are
about four miles southeast of Middle
boro, most strategic point.
General Bliss is so situated he still
may have a chance to move his army
quickly around Assawantsett lake and
then swing his full strength against
Gen. William A. Pew's blue forces on
the latter's right wing or he might even
attempt to turn the right in upon it
self.
Move Would Be ImpoIitlo
Observers here however, were in
clined to think tonight that such q
move would be less polite than quick
swing around to the left of the blue
army, so as to force a path for the in
vaders between Middleboro and
Plynnpton, What would mean an at
tempt to turn the left wing and would
afford the advantage of more territory
for maneuvering, plenty of fairly good
main roads and what is theoretically
an exceedingly important consideration
would give the red army an opportu-
nifty to work around to the west If it
found itself in a dangerous position.
AS a result the forward movement,
most of the forces of Gen. Bliss are
concentrated around Rock Station and
Middleboro, which was occupied this
afternoon. Just before the close of the
period at 1 o'clock Gen. Bliss drew
back the Fourteenth New York and
the Tenth cavalry through East Free
town, the scene of the Sunday night
encampment of the main body, and
hurriedly marched them around Lake.
side park, where they camped tonight.
There was conflict between mixed
patrol of cavalrymen from squadron
A of New York and the Essex troop of
New Jersey and detachment of Dis
trict of Columbia bicycle scouts, repre-
senting the invaders and a portion of
the Eighth Massachusetts infantry on
outpost duty for the defense. This re-
suited in the killing" of ten cavalry
men and siV infantrymen, according
to the umpire. 1t was merely skirm-
ish and at its close the two scouting
parties fell back to their supporting
bodies.
Blue Scouts Captured
Just to the north of this point six
blue scouts were captured by a cavalry
advance. without knowing it this adj
vance was within a very short distance
of a strong force of blue infantry,
which was marching toward Middle
boro. 1t was said by one of the UNI
pires that had the red cavalrymen been
sufficiently alert they could have To-
