 They tracked him some sevonty-fve miles and captured him south of the river about three miles from Phoenix. When caught he had in his den a col lection of chattels that would have been credit to Jesse James. There were three rifles of the latest patterns, a half dozen pistols of all designs, big stock of ammunition, valises, clothes. jewelry and various other articles, though no money could be found. Some of the articles have already been identified and the probability is that pretty strong case will be made against him.

How Labor Day Was Celebrat-
ed in Various Cities.
TWO BIG PARADEs IN NEW YORK.

The Central Labor Union and Central
Labor Federation Each Turned Out an
Army Of Men-Origin Of tho DAy-It
May Bccome u National Holiday.
NEW YORK, Sept. Labor Day was cele-
brated and is still being celebrated In this
city today in elaborate style. One parade
would be considered quite demonstration
here, but on account Of local strife and dis.
sensions there were two par sdes this morn
ing. Up to last year the trade and labor
unions OF this city held united parade.
Discord in the ranks Of the Central Labor
union between the socialists and the
knights OF Labor and some Of the open
trades unions grew to such an extent that
the socialists withdrew and formed the
Central Labor federation. All efforts to
harmoniEe the trouble failed and 1890 wit
messed two labor parades in this city.
The same conditions still exist and there
fore two parades Many old labor leaders
ragrst this, but there seems to be no rem
pdy for II, at least for the present. Both
the Central Labor union aud the Central
Labor Federation eclipsed all previous ef-
forts and both made fine displays Each
organization claims that 1t had ut least
5000 men in line.
Tho Origin Of the Day.
The holiday, which is now generally
celebrated throughout the United States,
originated In the ranks of the Central
Labor union. To George X. Lloyd, OF the
Tin and Sheet Iron Workers union, and
to p. j. McGuro, general secretary Of the
Brotherhood of Carpenters, must be given
the credit OF bringing the matter before
the unions for adoption. The general as.
sembly of the Knights of Labor was held
in this city on the first Tuesday in 1889,
and the first parade and picnic took place
on that day.
1t twasreviewed by General Master Work.
man Powderly and others In 1888 n parade
was held on Sept. 5, aud in 1854 u commit
toe was appointed to make arraugeA rents
for u parade. George h. Lloyd was u MEM
Dor of this committee, aud it was he who
introduced resolution at a meeting of
the Central Labor union declaring that
the first Monday in September be observed
each year as Labor Day and requesting all
labor unions to observe that day.
To Mako 1t - National Holiday.
The resolution went through with a
cheer, and Boston, Cincinnati, Buffalo and
Baltimore celebrated Labor Day in 1854 for
the first time. State Senator REILLY intro
ducsd bill Ia the senate in 1885 making
the first Monday in September legal holi-
day. 1t was amended so as to read the
first Monday In May, passed both houses
and was signed by the governor. This did
not please the unions, so in 1886 the ao.
was changed to make the holiday the FIRST
Monday in September.
Other states followed the lead of New
York, and now the first Monday H.
September Is legal holiday in number
Of states, and the next move will be to
have it made national holiday.
