HUNDREDS WAIT
IN VAIN FOR THE
LABOR PARADE

Announcement That Annual
March Was Abandoned.

Hundreds of men. women and chill
dren lined Broad street today,
anxiously awaiting the usual Labor
Day parade. Until long after mid

Trades Council and their friends. who
are holding an outing and gaia day
at the Vailsburg Amusement Park,
on South Orange avenue. marched
from the council headquarters, How
ard street and South Orange avenue,
to the park.
The usual Labor Day parade has
heretofore been in charge of the
Trades Council The labor people this
wear. however, changed their plans
and held an outing, instead of the
usual big parade. Hundreds of people,
NOT knowing of the changed plans,
thronged Broad street watching for
the usual spectacle
AT the city hall there was more
than 200 people. mostly women and
children, all fighting for places of
vantage and watching the street anx-
iously for the parade. At Military
and Lincoln parks there were other
large groups assembled.
The -Four Corners" were crowded
with those awaiting the marchers,
and scores of people held places Of
vantage in the office building win
dows.
Many of the public and private
buildings on Broad street had been
decorated with flags and bunting.
This substantiated the belief that
there was a parade scheduled.
Hucksters and vendors, with their
balloons, pin-wheels and other wares,
were everywhere in evidence. The
city had all the appearances of a cir
Gus day, and yet there was no pa
rade.
