for ladies and gentlemen, were contested
The ladies races were the most inter-
esting and caused much laughter The
two egg races for married ladies were
won by Mrs. Schleiser and Mrs. H.

captured by Miss M. Kaly. Luckily for
the ladies the eggs were made of marble.

The down town section of the city had
on its holiday attire yesterday. All the
large stores on the avenue were closed,
ated in honor of labor's great holiday.
There were a few unfortunates who
struck Justice Potts court, where B.
Van Beuren was acting. The Justice
was quite lenient with the petty Offend
ers, being allowed to go with small fines.
Chowder and outing parties were very
much in evidence. At nine O'Clock about
two hundred members of the Robert
Davis Association met at No. 81 Newark
avenue, procured outfits, and lead by
Director William Heller went to Hobo
ken to take part in the annual OUT
ing and barbecue of the M. J. Coyle
Association. Several Polish societies,
headed by a brass band, left the city
early in the fmorning to take part in a
celebration in Newport. Baseball and
football attracted large crowds to the
railroad grounds across Jersey avenue.
It was such a perfect day that everyone
was out for pleasure, and apparently
found it.
The theatres did a rushing business
both houses being crowded at every per-
formance.
From eight o'clock until after eleven
the down town section was enlivened by
the return of outing parties. Bands play
ed and the pleasure seekers blew horns.
BY midnight quietness reigned and La
bor Day and its pleasures were over for
arother- wear

CARDIFF Wales Sept. 3. 1s95.-At to-
days session Of the Annual Trades
Union Congress President Jenkins de-
livered his inaugural address. He de-
nounced the independent labor organiza-
tions amid constant interruptions. He de-
clared that the anti-Iabor and ant1-trades
union party had been privately subsidized
by the opponents of organized labor and
challenged them to produce their ac-
counts showing where they got their
funds.
J. H. Wilson. NJ P. of the National
Sailors and Firemen's Union, moved a
vote of thanks to President Jenkins. but
Delegate Peter Currie objected to the
political bogies which the President had
introduced into his address. He. therefore.
moved that it was the sense of the Con-
gress that such expressions were de-
parture from precedent and that the of
fensive passages in the address be strick-
en- out.
Mr.. David Holmes. vice-chairman.
ruled that Currie's motion was out of
order and the vote of thanks moved by
Wilson was carried.
Mr.. Holmes then introduced. Messrs.
spectively Ex-President and Vice Presi-
dent of the American Federation of La
Dor. who were. present as American de-
1egates in obedience to the call issued by
John Burns and the Congress accorded

it is proposed to have the New York
terminal in the neighborhood of Sixty
seventh street. This has brought out
storm of objections from the residents
of that section, who want the terminal
located further down town.
MR.. STOKES OBJECTIONS.
Mr.. w. E. d. Stokes. who owns several
million dollars worth of property in that
section, and several others gave their
views to the Board this morning. Mr..
Stokes, in his argument, said that the
neighborhood running from Sixty sew
enth to Seventy-ninth streets was the
only restricted residential section in
the city. 1t contained nothing but fine
residences that had been erected at con-
siderable expense. The neighborhood
had been improved at the expense of
the property owners. They had fine
streets and avenues, and recently SYM
dicate had purchased $1O,OO00oO worth Of
property in that section for the purpose
of building private residences.
ATTACKED THE JERSEY CHARTER.
He attacked the charter granted to the
company by the Legislature of this
State and characterized it as being an
unjust law The location. grade, ap-
proaches. ETC., were not only subject to
the approval of the Secretary of War,
but also to the approval of the Sinking
Fund Commission of New York City.
In his opinion the New York terminal
of the bridge should be located in the
neighborhood of Forty-second street. In
that vicinity there is nothing but fac
tories and tenement houses, which
would be benefited by the bridge. Fur
ther up the noise and dirt would ruin
property and greatly deteriorate its
value.
Several other property owners OBJ

were no objections from this side Of
