Charges have been made in effect that
the brick masons at work on the new city
post Office building are not provided with
sufficient scaffolding to guarantee them

the building by the brickmasons the latter
had been provided with a flooring where
they were at work sufficiently wide to
guarantee the fullest safety. This floor
ing, he said. was ample to permit the
wheeling of brick and mortar with the ut
most safety, well as to give the masons
a wide flooring to move about on.

The Labor day conference which took
place yesterday afternoon at Typograph-
ical Temple was well attended, and was
largely devoted to the reception Of reports
from representatives of societies which
are expected to be in Iine. 1t was stated
that a very conservative estimate placed
the number of men to be in line at not
less than 5000, while there is more prob
ability that the actual number of those
in the procession will be greater rather
than less than these figures.
There is no doubt from present indica-
tions that the various uniforms to be worn
will be a striking feature of the occasion.
In every instance they will be appropriate
to the craft represented.
There We're u number of assemblies
