CHICAGO. Sept. with 25,0O0 in
line as compared with $4,000 last year,
a Labor Day parade started at 10 this
morning. Notwithstanding the action
of the Chicago labor unions in declar-
ing in favor of a picnic outing for un-
ion men and their families, a number
of unions determined to show their
strength in parade. Prominent In
the line of march We're six unions of
striking butchers. with President DON
nelly as marshal. HhOrseshoers and
freight handlers We're also included.
The butchers received an ovation all

call for a referendum vote as to call

pending settlement are looked upon
as a ruse to prevent another break in

Asked for statement on the issues
of the state campaign, Judge Turner
said in part:
The disaffection of the republican
voters is based on the two-fold ground
that it is now apparent they have
nothing to hope for at the hands of
their present party organization in the
matter of railway regulation, and on
the bold. open and notorious domina-
ton of their recent state convention by
agents of the railroads. l do not sup
pose there was ever so bold a surren-
der of party integrity to private and

The consul at Antigua was not particu-

financial reasons rather than inclination
that kept him there. Indeed, had the finan-

he would have cared to say good-bye-and

From purely consular standpoint, An

DEAD SEAS ONLY BOAT.
1t is a Small Sailing Boat About
Twenty Feet Long.

From the London Graphic
Since the earthquake in Palestine last April
some one circulated the story that the
mouth of the River Jordan had been so
affected by the shock that the level Of the
river had been altered to such an extent
that at the place where the historic river
goes into the Dead sea there was now a
waterfall of considerable depth and
strength. This is altogether false. and no
change whatever has taken place at or near
the mouth of the Jordan. The writer has
just spent some days there and made 1t
his special business to investigate this mat
ter Much has also appeared from time to
time in the papers and periodicals about
steam boats navigating the Dead sea This.
too. is fabrication. The only boat on the
Dead sea Is small sailing boat about
twenty feet long. This vessel makes trips
as the wind allows, from the north end of
the sea to the bay on the eastern side
of the tongue that divides the water near
the middle Here at this terminus some
Jews are located. The whole concern is,
IN fact In the hands of Jews, who, at a
low rate, buy wheat and barley from the
Arabs, to be delivered on the seashore
From there 1t is shipped to the Jericho
side and carried on donkeys TO Jerusalem,
where 1t finds ready sale at good price.
When adverse winds blow the little craft is
In danger of being swamped. for the so
called Dead sea becomes a living mass Of
waves. The writer recently spent four
nights such as never will be forgotten on
these waters, and the smartness of the old
man at the helm and his boy with the sails

again. charge of one meiedie fthree

each passenger. and for such unique voy-
age 1t is not exorbitant. There is some
talk about a small steam tug being put on
the sea. but the authorities are 10th to
grant permission. 1t will be a great boon
when, If ever. 1t does arrive, as Ii will
bring the east and west sides of Jordan

and trading purposes.
