This Is tbe first Labor day that has Dot witnessed a geueral parade ot all the trades In his city and vicinity. This fact It considered ilgnlflcanl In labor circles of tbe general eon litlon this year ol New York working people. With but a tew exceptions, there Is no ques tions to lie agitated and no victories to be celebrated. The various labor organisation decided, therefore, some time ago, that a farads was oot necessary, and that tbe various unions ihould spend tbe day as the Individuals saw lit. As a result, there was a sudden exodus from the city In every direction. 1'icnie part ies, preiit HUd small, took ndvautatte of the line weather and traveled to the sea and to various pleasure grounds and parks about tbe cuy. Dissension marked the celebration ot Labor day In Chicago, and two rival organisations ol labor marched in separate parades. This was tbe result of the long pending dispute be tween the labor congress and the trade and labor assembly. Tbe day was generally celebrated In Phila delphia, although the state labor day does not come until next Saturday. Originsllv the day was universally observed the first Mon lay In September, hut In the year lsy:l, when the bill In tbe Pennsylvania legislature became a law providing for a Saturday bait holiday, it carried with It a change In tbe time llxcd for celebrating labor day.

There were auoat 10. CUD men in line. I'.cnutiful weather contributed to the suc cess of Labor day celebration at St. Louis. All tbe lauks, exchanges, courts and city ol'lees were closed, aud many retail s ores gave their clerks a holiday. The labor or ganizations united in a parade ol the princi pal streets at noou, and afterwards assem bled at Concordia park, where the remainder of the day was spent in amusements ot vari ous kinds. Nearly 4,01)0 people were Iu line. Pittsburg did not celebrate the national labor holiday, and the only observance uf tho day ix found in rules governing the haudllug of malls at tbe postolllcc. Pennsylvania will observe tbe state labor day ou Saturday, which will be a legal holiday. - The Sewer Pipe Industry.
