SAN Francisco, September 1st-The dig
nifty of American labor was well sustained
to-day in this city by the celebration of
Labor Day. Flags were flying from many
of the business houses aud from the ma
tional and municipal buildings These,
with the decorations already far advanced
for the celebration of Admission Day,
and the glorious sunshine, formed scene
of color unsurpassed. The weather. al
though somewhat close, was not OF ma
ture to oppress the paraders on their long
line of march. As early as 10 o'clock the
crowds began to form and were mostly
made up of the wives and children of the
paraders. The arrangements for the par
ade were so perfect that at the appointed
hour, IL o'clock A. NJ, il started promptly
on time. Some surprise was manifested
at the absence of police escort to clear
the way, which necessitated not little de-
lay and frequent gaps in the procession.
The line of march was from Drumm and
Market to Montgomery, to Pine, to Kearny,
to Market, to Van Ness avenue where the
procession countermarched across Market
toTwelfth, to Thirteenth, where the review
took place. after which the line entered
Woodward's Gardens where the literary
exercises were carried out
The procession moved without q stop
from the time it started. By actual time it
was just an hour passing given point, and
was watched by thousands of people,
Taken altogether the celebration of Labor
Day by the different Unions was a grand
success in every respect. Fully seven
thousand men were in line.
In the evening there was grand ball in
the pavilion at the Gardens, which brought
the festivities of the day to a close
AT SEATTLE.
SEATTLE, September 1st.-The greatest
celebration in the history of this city oc-
Cured to-day. Over 5000 workingmen,
representing sixty trades unions, passed in
review before the Mayor, Common Council
and Chamber of Commerce in the morn
ing. The procession was a mile and
half long. Each trade was represented by
an emblematic float, many of them being
very artistic. The police force, fire de-
partment and other departments of the
city government were represented. A crowd
of fully 10000 people lined Front and
Second streets during the parade. Two
trains of fifteen cars each took the labor
unions to Renton, where the afternoon was
devoted to athletic sports and amusements.
The best of order prevailed When the
parade passed a building on Second street,
upon which scab bricklayers and hod-
carriers were at work, the unions of the
two trades passed and jeered them. There
was no other demonstration.
