Camp Ground Notes.

The 18th annual meeting in this grove
closed on Sunday evening. A large audience
(between 800 and 10000 gathered to listen to
the closing services, which were conducted
by Rev. w. S. Jones of Mechanic Falls and
Rev. Geo. d. Lindsay of Auburn. All were
richly repaid for their efforts in reaching
here in the rain. which fell several times dur
ing the day. Never was there q more atten-
tive audience gathered here. The meetings
have not been as large as usual, but l think
results have been as great as in former years.
There has been difference of opinion among
the preachers in regard to holding meetings
during the Sabbath. But | think it has been de-
cided that the more people who can be brought
under the influence of the Gospel, the better.
And after all the history of the past as con-
nected with this spot up to the present time,
it is very desirable that meetings should con-
tnue to be held on the Sabbath as usual. and
have no hesitation in saying that no more
efforts to close on Saturday will receive
countenance by those who worship here, or by
the stockholders.
Be- As Mr.. Lindsay said in his sermon today,
Eve are all aiming for the same object and if
all de not pronounce the same shiboleth, we
will work shoulder to shoulder, and by and
by we wAl see eye to eye,' and then these
little differences of opinion viii all be forgot

and all will go home well repaid for any sac
rifioes that they have made. t a...

CINCINNATI, Sept /.
A despatch from Gore, Ohio, reports the
excitement in that region unabated and there
are rumors of more outbreaks having oc-
CURED last night of which no account is OBJ
tainable.
NEW STRAITsyILLE, Ohio, Sept l.
Judge Freisner of Logan, who is in con-
sultation with Gov. Hoadly, thinks that the
worst trouble in the valley is over. The
governor left Logan at 8. 80 for a trip to the
principal mining towns, accompanied by
Sheriff Mccarthy and several others. Before
leaving he telegraphed to all points that he
wanted to meet prominent miners and hear
their side of the story. At all stations a
large number of miners were out to meet the
train and at this place about 500 congregated
Great excitement prevailed and the governor
began to hold private consultation with
representative miners, president of this dis
trict and others. They deny stoutly that
there is any need for the militia here and
claim to know nothing of the burning of the
hopper of mine No. Z, short distance from
here. They have a theory that the guards
became dissatisfied with the wages and set
fire TO the hopper themselves. The governor
tells them lie doesn't wantto be forced to
order the militia on the ground and is exact
ing promises that the miners will do all in
their power to aid the civil authorities. If
he should conclude, however, after visiting
all the points that the militia is required he
will have, he said, to give orders to that
effect. A team was brought out at this place
to convey the governor and few others out
TO the mine where the hopper was burnt. and
just as it started three cheers were given for
the governor. Tho cheers were very weak
and without enthusiasm. Some miners are
very glum and say this trip is only political
scheme. Several of them on being inter-
viewed, said there was no politics in the sit
uation. The governor expects to visit other
points and reach Columbus this evening.
COLUMBUS, Sept. l.
Gov. Hoadley returned tonight. He thinks
that with the men in the present temper it
will be some time Lefore the struggle is over,
unless the operators make some concessions.
At 8 o'clock this evening he sent three COM
panies of militia to the most critical points
Longstreet, Snake Hallow and Snake Run.
When the governor left Logan this after
noon, he telegraphed to all points that he
wished counsel with prominent miners, and
at Nelsonville GOO men were present with
carriages and band to escort him to the
public square for the purpose of having him
make speech. They had appointed COM
mittee earlier in the day to ask a number of
questions, as the governor had proposed, and
they made it quite interesting.
The troops will not be allowed to remain
as a mere guard for the coal and railroad
companies, it being stipulated by the govern
or that they are there only to protect life and
property.

WORKINGMEN'S PARADE.
Witnessed by Large Crowds in New
YOrk-An Unfouuded RumOr that
Greatly Exercises Mr.. BeTgh.
New YORK, Sept.

New YORK, Sept. l.
Before o'clock this morning both sides
of Broadway from City Hall to l4th street,
Union Square and Fifth avenue, from 18th to
25th street, were thronged with a mass of
people who had assembled to witness the
labor parade.
At 10 O'Clock the order to march was given
and the typographical union No. 6, which was
given the right line, wheeled into Centre
street and marched down toward Park Row,
followed by the building trade union, which
with the printers, composed the first division.
The second division was made up of cigar
makers and workmen from the furniture and
clothing trades. The third division was COM
posed of butchers, coopers and other trade
unions. The fourth division was made up of
a number of workingmen not attached to any
organization, who had asked permission to
join in the procession.
Fully 20, 900 men were in line. The day
was bright and clear. Both those who parad
ed and the thousands of spectators were
dressed in holiday attire. Each body of men
in the procession had some distinctive badge,
cap. apron or some other symbol of its trade.
The typographical union No. numbered
2000 men. The German typographical union
No. Z, and the Brooklyn union No. 9, also
turned out In one of their wagons was
Benjamin Franklin. Alongside of it was a
Gordon press, representing q striking con-
trast.
A number of men were in wagons busily
engaged in setting type. Among them was
old Harry Davis. whose striking resemblance
to Horace Greely called out repeated cheers.
There were were also in line delegations of
printers from Albany, Philadelphia, Newark,
New Haven, Hartford and Jersey City.
Several other trade unions gave illustra-
tions of their work on wagons in the process
sion. The cigar makers rolled cigars. The
clothiers cut, basted and sewed garments, the
box makers sawed and hammered as they put
boxes together, and the shoemakers made
shoes.
twas reported that the butchers intended
to illustrate their art by killing innumerable
cattle as they went through the streets. This
report reached Henry Bergh's ear and greatly
excited him. He went to the police head
quarters this morning, and four stalwart
policemen were detailed to assist him in pre-
venting it. When they reached the rendez-
vous of the butchers, however, they found
that the report was unfounded. The butchers
turned out 1000 strong.
The Wendell Phillips union No. 2 COM
posed of negroes, had over 400 men in line.
They were frequently applauded along the
line of march. The bricklayers numbered
over 1000. Banners with various inscriptions
were carried by several organizations. Among
them were banners on which were inscribed
the names of firms and corporations that the
trades unions had boycotted.
The demonstration avoided the assumption
of anything of political character. 1t is
intended to make the first of September of
each year workingmen's holiday, and cele-
brate it by similar parade.
