LABOR day OBSERVED
Annual Event Generally Observed by
Toilers Throughout the United
States Yesterday:
Chicago Has a Novel Display, Twenty
Five Thousand Union Workmen
- Being In Line.
Addresses Made by Senators Cullom,
y Mason, Mayor Harrison and
- Other Speakers.

r Chicago, Sept. 3.-Organized worK.
fngmen in Chicago and vicinity cele.
brated Labor day with numerous pro-
cessions and huge parade. The dem
onstrations were blessed with clear
skies and pleasant temperature.
The parade. was about three miles in
length and it is estimated that 25,00D
trades unionists and musicians were
in line. Buildings were not decorated
but banks, the board of trade, the
Stock Exchange and business houses
generally were closed.
The South Chicago steelworkers,
who refused to obey Shaffer's strike
order, were not invited to participate
in the demonstrations. They enjoyed
themselves at a picnic arranged by
their employers.
A feature of the parade, although
not observable to the spectators who
linsd the sidewalks, was the union. Ia
bel attached to every garment, cap
and shoe worn by the marchers. A
critical committee had seen to 1t that
the parade should represent dyed-in-
the-wool unionism, and even the
horses were not allowed to march un-
til it was shown that their shoes had
been put on by union smiths. T.
Among the speakers at the picnics
were Senators Mason and Cullom of
Illinois, Mayor Harrison of Chicago
and Samuel Also schmuller, former Dem
ocratic candidate for governor of II.

SITUATION NOT BRIGHT
Optimistic View of South African
Situation in London not Shared
by Cape Colony.
Slow Movement Of British Troops and
Numbered Condition Of coInmns
Is Criticised.
Lord Kitchener Said To Have Failed
To Inspire the Beers With
Salutary Fear. s S52;

London Sept. Edgar Wallace,
whose dispatches regarding the shoot
ing of wounded men at Vlakfontein
created a sensation, now publishes a.
letter in The Mail showing that the,
optimistic view of the South African
situation which prevails in England is
not shared by the anti-Boer press of
Cape Colony. One journal emphasizes
the necessity of rendering the British
forces as. mobile as the rowing com
mandoes which they are set to catch
and also advocates an increase In the
number of British troops. : :,.35sSEEtss
Similarly another South African
newspaper criticises the slow move
ments of the British troops and anoth-
er' deplores the numbered condition of
their columns, but the want of mobil-
ity is not the sole point of the crit
icisms leveled at Lord Kitchener's
mode of warfare 1t is pointed out
that hitherto he has entirely failed to
inspire the Beers with salutary fear.

CHARGES AGAINST SCHROEDER.
Military Governor of Guam Said to Be
Too Severe. g., y


Oakland, CAL, Sept. 3.-W. B. Smith,
a brother of Police Judge Mortimer
Smith, has returned from Guam, where
he went to serve as private secretary
to Military Governor Schroeder. He
was forced to resign after three
months service, owing to i'll health
and the treatment he received from
the governor.
Governor Schroeder's acts as mill
tary governor of GUAM" said Smith,
will be investigated by congress.
Schroeder is a South Carolinian of
German extraction. In his opinion
soldier is cur whom every officer
should abuse. In three months there
were 70 summary courts-martial of en-
listed men and IL courts martial of a
general nature, making a total of 80
men out of $50 marines who were con-
fined, starved and overworked in the
fierce heat of the tropical island. To
escape the prosecutions and merciless
treatment the men are forced to fee
to the hills, without food or shelter,
and they return OILY when starvation
drives them from the barren tops.
"The government maintains an ice
plant on the island, and large quanti-
ties of ice are manufactured every
day, yet civilian could not purchase
single pound. That is Schroeder's
order. Notwithstanding that 1000
pounds of ice are thrown away every
day the fever-stricken clerks were de-
MED the smallest comforts. Governor
Schroeder refused transportation to
civilians, although their appointments
called for it, and many were forced to
stow away in order to leave the

His Election as President of Cuba Is
Predicted.
Havana, Sept. 3.-The presidential
campaign will increase in activity dur
ing the coming week. Masso is appar-
emily gaining no strength and it is gen.
orally believed that owing to Palma's
unquestionable strength, Masso will at
the last moment accept the nomination
for the vice presidency. Masso re-
Gently announced in an open letter his
willingness to accept whatever Office
the Cuban people saw fit to honor him
with.
Rubens has returned from, Mexico
and is comforting with party leaders in
Palma's interest. Asked what course
would be pursued, Rubens replied that
no campaign was really necessary,
that Palma's friends were we'll organ
ized and confident, and were managing
the interests Of their candidate with
out Intervention or suggestion from
Palma.
Rubens' opinion concerning the cam
paign is regarded as authoritative by
people here, he being in constant COM
munication with leaders all over the
island. That Rubens is satisfied with
Palma's prospects is apparent from
his announced intention to leave Ha-
vana Wednesday.

GETTING THE WORST OF IT.
North American acountries Losing
Their Trade With Cuba.


Washington, Sept. 3.-Some figures
relating to the export and import
trade of Cuba for the first seven
months Of this year, as compared with
a similar period last year, just pub
lished by the division of insular af-
fairs, war department, indicate that
radical changes are going on in that
trade and that the United States and
other North American countries are
the sufferers in this turn of trade.
Thus it iS shown that the exports
from Cuba for the period mentioned
this year, valued at $38,033,93O, as
against $43,409,055. for the same
period last year, while the imports for
the same period were worth $26,997,-
S17, as against $19,955, ,492 for the cor
responding period in 1900. The i'm
ports from the United States dimin-
ished GA per cent and that of other
North American countries 1876 per
cent, while Cuba shipped to the Unit
ed States during the same period Ill
per cent more goods than during the
preceding year, and to the other North
American countries 1888 per cent
more.

Cleveland. c., Sept, 3.-Monday's
{ sunshine and warm air, balmy breeze
and clean streets, filled with march
ing laborers, affords a pleasant, con-
$trast to Sundays devastation by a
rainfall that flooded sewers and
poured intosloW streets, which threat
ened hundreds of lives. and did" great
destruction to homes, roadways, boul-
evards and other property. Notwith-
. standing the great property damage
not a single loss of life has been, re
ported to police headquarters and it is
believed none has occurred. Z:
Aside from the most seriously affect
ed portions of the city, there is no evi-
dence of the havoc that has been
wrought and street ear traffic has re-
sumed regularly. The work of repair
ing the damage done to homes is going
on, but in many instances houses will
have to be rebuilt. The water that
flooded the streets has passed away
through the sewers and the streets
that were rivers of water six feet deep
= Sunday are in their usual condition.
The department of public works, the
police and fire departments are civ
ing all possible aid to repairing the
damage done. ,--.,'. >5.-@'
No accurate estimate of the loss can
be stated, but 1t will be the heaviest
destruction Of roadways and streets in
the history of this city.
In Glen Park place many houses
were prevented from ! being swept
away only bv the nearness of a neigh
boring residence, which served as a
bumper, the second house being pre-.
vented from moving away because OF
its foundation having been washed
from under it, allowing the building to
drop like dead weight on it's side

strikers only two men refused to re-
turn to work. The works are In full
operation and the strikers admit that
with their failure to get the men out
there is. little hope of closing the
plant. Dissatisfaction is increasing at
McKeesport, more particularly since
it has been shown that all promises
regarding the bringing out of the Car
hegie employees have practically been
without foundation, and predictions
are made that general break in the
strike at that place is not improbable
before many days. ..t

Van Aartsen and Trous, two Hol-

Lake Sunapee, N. H., Sept. 3.-The
report that Rear Admiral Sampson's
health was such as to cause alarm was
greatly exaggerated. The admiral
and his wife came here Aug. % and
have been living at a summer hotel.
When the admiral came here he was
not in the best health, but he has been
gaining strength and is very much i'm
proved. The report that the admiral
was seriously i'll originated from his
having suffered slight relapse, fol-
lowing a. drive around the country
which overtaxed him. 1t was but tenn
porary, however, for he was out again
the next day.. He expects to remain
here about two weeks longer. - =
