2 questions about the displacement action.
1: The displaced player does not have counter on the stock, does he gets one from his supply?
2: All adjacent routes are full. Where does the displaced player puts his counters?

It's in the rules:
1 - If there's nothing in the stock, take from the supply. If there's nothing in the supply, the player can take from elsewhere on the board.
2 - Place the pieces in the next closest routes - eg if all spaces 1 route away are full, place them 2 routes away, and so on.

1.yes, but as long as the displaced player wants to.
2. Move two cities away then.
Here are the original rules:
Replace an opposing player’s trader or merchant from any field on any route between two cities by someone from your personal supply and pay one additional resource (trader or merchant) as a penalty from your personal supply to your stock. Pay two resources when displacing a merchant (of course you may not displace anyone if you cannot pay).
The opposing player puts the displaced resource plus one additional resource (two if the displaced resource is a merchant) from his stock on any empty field on an adjacent route. “Adjacent” means that there is only one city between the field the resource has been dis- placed from and the field it is moved to. Note that this counts “per resource” – i.e., one resource may be placed on a route beyond the city terminating one side of the route and the other one on a route beyond the city at the other side. Only if all adjacent fields are occupied a field within a distance of two cities may be chosen, etc. If the player happens to have insufficient resources in stock, he may take resources from his personal supply (if this is still not enough he may take resources which have been placed on fields of trading routes before.
The “displaced player” does not need to insert resources from his stock and/or personal supply if he does not want to. But he may not move the “saved” resources from his stock into his personal supply instead, not even the displaced resource (this has to be placed on the gameboard again).
Note that it is possible to replace a merchant by a trader.

Thanks.
When we got those situations, and did not find the rules, we used the rules we thought were more natural...they were the correct ones

One of my favorite parts of this game is how elegant it is, and intuitively it plays.
