LABOR'O. GRAND FETB.
Putting the Finishing Touches on
the Arrangements.
A Suggestion That tho TIonumeEt
Erected to LabOr's Friend Be
Decorated-The Ball.

Grand Marshal HautZman and his aids
held a meeting at Federation Hall last
evening, and began the work of arrang-
ing the details of the big demonstration
which is to take place in this city on
Monday-Labor Day.
The task is no easy one, owing to the
great numbers who are to participate in
the parade, and may not be completed be-
fore Saturday.
ENTHUSIASTIC wAGE-WoRKERS.
The programme will be an elaborate
one, and, taken as whole, the day will be
one which will long be remembered by
Sacramentans.
The various unions which are to have a
place in the line are each working assid-
uously to have their respective bodies
surpass the others. The Grand Marshal
looks on this friendly rivalry approx
ingly, as he is cognizant Of the fact that
it will result in much good as regards the
general attractiVeness of the turnout.
Many Of the organizations will appear
with handsome banners and flags, and
the men will either wear uniforms repre-
sentative Of their callings, or will wear
neat badges.
The timers and cornice-makers held
a meeting last evening and completed
their arrangements for the parade, be-
side transacting other business of a
routine character.
The painters were to have met at the
Hussar Bands quarters, but owing to
some misunderstanding Tor to the circus)
quorum did not put III appearance SO
the meeting was postponed until this
evening.
The ball which takes place in the even
ing at the Assembly Chamber promises
to be a fine affair. It will be under the
auspices of the organized labor of the
county. The Hussar Band will furnish
the music.
LABOR'S FRIEND.
y correspondent of the RECORD-UNIoN
makes a suggestion regarding the Labor
Day exercises, which the managers should
consider.
AS Labor Day is now approaching"
he says, Il would wish to call To the
attention Of the delegates Of the various
labor unions that are now in this city
the prOpriety of decorating the Stevens
monument on that day with floral trib-
utes. ! am certain that call to that effect
would be generously responded to by
most Of the inhabitants Of this city, and rs
Mr.. Stevens was always an advocate for
sustaining California wages and true
friend of the workingman, | hope on
Labor Day they will not neglect some
tribute of respect to his memory

HIGHBINDKRS AFTER HINI.
A Sacramento Chinaman Who is
Marked for Slaughter.
He Was the Friend of Gum 10, the
Pretty Colusa Slave Whose
Masters Want Her.

! Sam Wo, the Chinaman who has lately
figured prominently in the case of Gum
| Ho, the Chinawoman over whose posses
sion there has been SO much dispute, is
afraid now that he will be killed. He
says he received a dispatch Yesterday
| morning from San Francisco friends
stating that the highbinders there had
selected two Of their men TO como to Sac
ramento and kill him. Ho has notified
the police Of the warning he has received.
The case involving the question as to
whether or not the woman shall be al
lowed her liberty, or he returned to the
slavery to which she had been subjected
by her alleged owner, has taken on some
new features since the habeas corpus pro-
| ceedings a few days ago.
Gum Hos husband, Hong Lung
Chung, who skipped from the court
room when he saw how things were GO
ing, taking with him the certified copy of
ms marriage certificate, which had
proved such boomerang to him. was
! yesterday arrested by one Of the Sheriff's
| deputies. He was tonnd in a Chinese
| den on l street, and made a move as if to
draw weapon, but the officer did not
give him chance to do so, although he
fought like Tartar.
The charge on which he was arrested is
an attempt at kidnapping. When taken
to the jail he was found to be armed to
the teeth, having a big pistol and dirk
knife concealed in his clothing. His
wife alleges that his purpose is to return
her to life Of slavery and debauchery.
The hearing of the habeas corpus pro
ceedings in behalf of Gum Ho will be
resumed in Judge Catlin's court at 10
! O'Clock to-day. c. T. Jones, who is con-
ducting the case tor the woman at the
instance of the ladies OF the San Francisco
Chinese Mission Home, is confident of
his ability TO prove that Gum Ho is the
victim of foul conspiracy, and that the
charge OF embezzlement made against
her is only part of the scheme to secure
possession of her.
The woman has pleaded with the Sheriff
TO keep her securely locked in cell, so
that her tormentors cannot get her.
