4 Labor Movement.

NEW YORK, September 5.-The pa
rade of the labor organizations of New
4ork, Brooklyn, Jersey City and adj
jacent cities occurred here to-day and
consisted of 10000 men, representing
almost every branch of labor. The
procession was reviewed by promi-
nent labor agitators. The men then
went to the park in the outskirts of
the city where games and other
amuSementS were engaged in.
a new process for covering floors is
described as follows: The floor is
thoroughly cleaned. The holes and
cracks are then filled with paper putty,
made by soaking newspapers in a
paste made as follows. 70 one pound
of flour add three quarts of water and
tablespoonful of ground alum, and
mix thoroughly. The floor is coated
with this paste, and then a thickness
OF manila or hardware paperis put on.
This IS allowed to dry thoroughly.
The manila paper is then Gov
cred with paste, and layer of
wall paper of any color or design
desired is put on. After allowing
this to dry thoroughly, it is covered
with two or three more coats of sizing
made by dissolying half a pound Of
white glue in two quarts of water.
After this is allowed to dry, the sur
face is given one coat of. "hard oil
finish varnish," which can be bought
already prepared. This is allowed to
dry thoroughly, when the floor is
ready for use. The process is repre-.
sented to be durable and cheap; and,
besides taking the place of mating,
Carpet oilcloths. or like covering,
makes the floor air tight, and permits
of its being washed.

Foundry Local Circle, of tho Chatsuqua
literary and scientific course, held the last
meeting of the regular course for 1898 in
the Foundry church last night. The course
of reading aud study occupies ten months,
and has Just been completed. The circle will
reassembe,in October. Meantime as most of its
members will be out of the city on their sum-
mcr vacation, during July and August, II is an
unsettled question whether the circle will
hold any meetings during the summer. The
advantage of such course is too apparent to
be questioned, only the matter Of attendance
is in doubt The superior merits OF the

THE NEW CASINO.
Some Comments by One Interested In
Theatrical Property.

Some Comments by One Interested in
Theatrical Property.
To me Editor.
In your issue of Saturday among other real
estate matters the projected casino was mem
toned, and its future manager alluded to as
one "who will present a higher order of
operatic and dramatic entertainments in bet
ter style than has been heretofore known to
Washingtonians" and his connection with
the Academy of Music, Of Baltimore, was fav-
orably alluded to. In the interest of the
truth and in behalf of those who have borne
the brunt of the fight in this city in the past,
it is asked that you will give room to some
facts which now are petinent for discussion.
Mr.. Fort, who now controls the Academy
Of Music in Baltimore, is a clever and ex-
perienced manager, but he has not made that
building a success either in a pecuniary or
professional direction. He entered there
some years ago as n salaried manager, after
the stockholders had been sold out without
receiving dollar for their investment), with
a floating debt existing of near 5000. Since
then that floating debt has increased to
$4,000, and the bondholders Tor the holders
of the first mortgage) have never received at
any time before or since his management any
payment Of interest. At present operatic en-
tertanments of the summer garden character,
at 25 cents admission, are being given, and
the hope of profit appears to exist in the sue
cess of the bar and refreshment rooms.
OF the accuracy of this there can be no
question, and with such facts admitted, it is
harsh in the extreme for The REPUBLICAN
to exalt the coming manager over those now
here, who have done so much more for in
vestors in theatrical property in this city,
and much for art Mr.. Fort can come here
aud be fully welcome. Should he undertake
to earn something over fair rent for his COM
pensation and succeed he will deserve all the
credit you can bestow on him; but for the
present be just to those already here, who
have paid many thousands annually as rentals,
and have also done their best for the play
loving public. WAsHINGToN.
