Local Standpoint--vice President

Yesterday was an exceptionally quiet
day in the coal strike situation, and
there were very few developments of
any consequence in this vicinity. Pres-
dent 7. d. Nichols of District No. 1, is
still out of the city and the Mine Work.
ers' headquarters were practically de-
serted yesterday.
Mr.. Nichols present whereabouts, is
something of mystery. He left here
Monday for Newark, where he ad-

for President John Mitchell. Nothing
has been heard Of his movements since
the meeting, and no enlightenment on
the subject can be obtained at the dis
trct headquarters, from which Secre-

Grand Marshal Hugh Frayne of the
Labor Day parade met with his aides
last night at Central Labor Union head
quarters and perfected details for the
big procession with which the day Is
to be celebrated.
Nearly all the locals and trades unions
have been heard from with the exception
of the Mine Workers from Dunmore to
Throop. The North Scranton locals
yesterday announced that fifteen locals
are ready to put eleven thousand men
into line. If only half of this number
should turn out, the parade Will be a
record breaker for number of men In
line.
The parade this year is to unique
and novel in many features and will
probably beat all of it's predecessors
as to size. Grand Marshal Frayne was
yesterday notified that the tobacco
workers, bakers and confectioners, and
garment workers will all ride In car
riages. The brewery workers intend to
come out one hundred and fifty strong,
and will occupy thirty big wagons,
each of which is to be decorated and
ornamented in float fashion.
1t was decided at last nights meeting
to ask all local business men to close
their stores for the day to give their
employees chance to properly observe
the holiday.
A new feature of the parade this year
will be the complete uniforming or
large number of locals, each of which
will wear an original and distinct garb.

materially affected local business in
terests for the responses to be as liberal
as was at first anticipated.
Vice-president r. e. Loomis of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
Railroad company was still in the city
yesterday, and was in conference with
the officials of the coal department,
during part of the day. Assistant Su-
perintedent Tobey stated that there
were no new developments in the situa-
ton, as far as the Lackawanna COM
pany was concerned He denied the
reports which had been circulated of

not a word Of truth in the rumor.

mine workers will be held tomorrow
afternoon at st. Mary's hall. Addresses
will be made by President Nichols, and
other officials of this district.
An unsuccessful attempt was made
yesterday morning to operate the Ma
tional washery of the North American
Coal company in South Scranton. Su-
perintedent Sharkey and about thirty
men arrived at the washery early ir
the morning and found it surrounded
by large crowd of strikers and theii
sympathizers. In view of the crowd
present and also of the fact that some
of the pumping apparatus and other
necessary machinery was found to be
lacking, Superintendent Sharkey
thought it advisable to withdraw the
men and await a more auspicious time
for operating the washery.
