FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1902. UNIONS HONOR LABOR S HOLIDAY Organized Workingmen Are Celebrating Today. Miners and Other Trade Unionists Parade This Morning and Will Hold Picnic This Afternoon. The organized workingmen of Free land and vicinity, under the auspices of the Central Labor Union, are today celebrating In a befitting manner the one day of the year which the law of the state has decreed shall be theirs to enjoy. No other town of Pennsylvania, population ar.d circumstances considered, it may be safely said will excell Freeland in pay ing homage to the Labor Day of 1902 The workingmen of the town and sur rounding villages are gathered here as never before and the day's outing promises to be one that will be long remembered. The exercises began this morning with a parade, followed by addresses at the Public park. The afternoon ami even ing will also bo spent by the working men and their families at the. park, where the Central Labor Union is con ducting a picnic. The change in the hour of parade was decided upon Friday evening and was made necessary by the scarcity of speak •r*. Had the original hour chosen been id bored to it would have been necessary to dispense with the speeches, so great is the demand today throughout the state for men to address the toilers who are celebrating in every city and town. Those who spoke here this morning will also speak at Hazleton this afternoon. Early in the morning the town began to take on a holiday appearance, (lags and bunting being displayed at a major ity of the business places on Centra street. At 9 o'clock the locals from the outside towns began to come in and were promptly assigned to their posi tions in the lino by Marshal John F. Boyle and his aids, Edward Doggett and Charles Jacquot. Ideal weather greatod tho paraders aud induced many who were not in clined to participate to join in with their unions and inarch to town and over tho route. Sevural of those who were in line came quite a distance and showed tho effects of their long walk under a warm sun. The parade began to move at 10 o'clock in the order given in tho pro gram published last week. Tho Citi zens' band led the procession, followed by the miners' unions of llazio Brook, Eckley, Highland, Sandy llun, Jcddo, Drifton, Upper Lehigh, South Heberton and Freeland. with the engineers, fire men and pumpmen comprising Local 1939, also of town, bringing up tho rear. In addition to the band live drum corps furnished music for tho marchers. Tho members of United Brewery Workers' Union, of town, rode in a prettily-decorated wagon with a tapped keg of their product displayed. When the head of the parado readied Carbon and Washington streets tho rear of the line was at South and Ridge, the paraders covering twelve long squares and numbering over 2,800 men and boys. Banners demanding arbitration and asking that tho boys bo sent to schools, instead of the breakers, were carried by .leddo local. The speakers' carriages, in tho fore part of the parade, were filled by D. J. .McCarthy, Esq., Matthew Long, Nation al Board Member P. G. Gallagher, Dis trict Secretary John 1\ Gallagher, Dis trict Board Member W. A. Dettrey aud District Vice President Andrew Mattl. The speakers were proparing to de liver their addresses when the Tribune went to press. The People's Alliance. The call issued by Burgess John F. Boyle for a meeting of the business people and other citizens for the purpose of forming a branch of the People's Al liance was responded to by a large num ber on Friday evening. The Municipal hall was well filled with persons interest ed in the settlement of tho strike when the burgess called the meeting to order. The gathering organized by electing Mr. Boyle to continue as chairman, and then listened to a lengthy address by Councilman Matthew Long, of llazletou, who gave a lucid explanation of the object of the People's Alliance. Tho speaker demonstrated tho necessity at this particular time for an organization of tiiis character, one that has for its purpose the settlement of the strike, ami gave conclusive evidence that in Eureka Harness 011 ",1V not only Tnakestho harness and the ||jßL iTOther soft luul|>lWili% puts U In con- 111* dlllonlo last—twlco ih lung j||jl n| h ;;- ""STANDARD Your A Horse a WfW Chance t Jw joining the alliance no man need foar that ho is affiliating himself with a poli tical movement or spite society. The People's Alliance, the speaker said, was founded on such broad Chris tian principles that every honest Ameri can can boldly uphold theui without foar of criticism from any quarter, lie said that the time has come when those who are suffering from the effects of the war between capital and labor must courageously confie forward and make a determined effort to bring about a return of the peaco and harmony that prevail ed In the anthracite region prior to the inauguration of the strike. Mr. Long discoursed at sorao length on the questions at issue between the operators and their miners, and backed up his claims that the public Is justified in interfering with extracts frAm recent speeches and interviews tendered by President Roosevelt, Senator lianna and other prominent men. He gave some interesting personal experience in deal ing with coal operators and also dwelt on tho necessity for purer politics iu the s'ate and county. The address, which consumed nearly two hours, was well received, and was followed by the election of E. J. Curry as secretary of tho Freeland branch. D. J. McCarty, Esq , of Hazleton, spoke also on tho object of the alliance and the good that can be accomplished by concerted action on the part of the business people and public-spirited citi zens who give their approval and sup port to Its principles. The appointment of delegates to the general convention of the People's Alli ance was postponed until tomorrow evening, when another meeting will be held and at which the membership is expected to be largely increased. Invi tations are being sent to all the business and professional men of town to attend tomorrow evening's meeting. A convention of all the branches of tho People's Alliance, Boards of Trade, and all other business organizations of the cities aud towns of this and other states affected by the strike will bo held at Hazleton on Thursday next. Runaway Horse Killed. While Dr. George Wentz, of Drifton, was making a purchase in a South Centre street store Saturday evening he left his bay horse attached to a light runabout stand. The animal became frightened in some manner and started at a mad pace for his stable at Drifton. It went at a furious gait and everything remained intact until within about twenty-five yards of the railroad cross ing below the Woodside school house. There tho animal dashed against a horse and buckboard coming to town, driven by J. Zakutney, of Luzerne and Centre streets. The runaway horse struck Zakuttiey's outfit with such force that it released the horse from the buckboard. tho shaft of which pierced tho runaway horse through the breast, throwing it to the ground and killing it instantly. Zakutney'* horse on being released ran to town, but was captured without doing any damage. The spot where the accident occurred was very dark and tho crash came so unexpectedly that Zakutney did not know for some time what became of bis horse. Be yond the breaking of the shafts on both vehicles no further damage was done. S2OO Reward Offered. A new organization, known as the Civic League of Luzerne County, has been formed and lias placed in another column of the Tribune an important notice to voters of both parties. Tho organization is non-partisan and offers a reward of S2OO for all successful prose cutions of offenses against the primary election laws.

Chase, Thomas 11. Atberton, G. M. Reynolds. The Seventeenth Week. The seventeenth week of tho coal strike began today and finds no percep tible change on either side. The only important development of tho past two days is the circulation of a rumor that Governor Stone is considering the ad visability of calling an extra session of the legislature, for the purpose of having tho assembly pass a compulsory arbitra tion act which he has had prepared to meet the exigencies of the occasion. It is reported at Harrisburg that the extra session will bo called unless tho striko soon comes to an end. Fire This Morning. Fire broke out in Dr. H. M. Nealo's office in the P. (). S. of A. building at 11 a. in. today. Tho blaze bad gained con siderable headway when discovered, but was extinguished before the firemen ar rived.

The Kind You Have Always Bought ROUND THE REGION Protesting against being removed to Lehigh county almshouse, Joseph liuch, a veteran of the Civil war, died when within half a mile of the home. Ruch, who was 70 years of ago, lived alone, but recently became so ill that he could not care for himself. It was then deter mined to have him removed to the alms house. Tho old man begged piteously not to be taken there, and bis wish that he might never be taken there alive was gratifiod. Controller E. A. Jones, of Lacka wanna county, has held up over SI,OOO worth of bills of aldermen, justices and constables for discharge cases. Tho controller refused to approve the bills, declaring that they are "false" cases. One justice sent in twenty-six discharge cases, all against the same defendant and on the same charge. Proposals for the construction of the new bridge over the Lehigh river at White Haven will bo received at Harris burg between September 23 and 27. The new bridge will be four feet higher on the Carbon side and two feet higher on tho Luzerne side. The engineers' estimate of the cost of tho structure is $38,000. Extensive Improvements are to be made at the DuPont powder plant at Wapwallopen. A large electric plant will be constructed which will supple ment the wator power when this proves insufficient. Fully two years will be required to make tho alterations and improvements already planned. Scranton Municipal League, after several month* of apparent inactivity, has resumed its crusade upon violators of the laws against Sunday liquor sell ing. A dozen arrests were made yester day, among which were some of the leading restaurant keepers. An Allentown alderman was adjudged guilty this week of a violation of the factory law. He had been arrested at the instance of Deputy Inspector Leis enring, charged with Issuing certificates to children who are unable to read or write the English language. Samuel Nash, aged 72 years, proprie tor of the Nash hotel and one of Scran ton's prominent citizens, sent two bul lets Into his body iu the Jermyn hotel. Mischances for recovery are good. Des pondency over money matters is hold responsible for his rash act. Tho Carbon county fair, which will be held at Lehighton beginning Sep tember 10, promises to bo better than ever before. Tho grounds have been very much improved and the list of prizes to be awarded is much larger than boforo. White Haven is afflicted with a ty phoid feverepidemic. Tho town Is with out sewers and this is said to bo the causo of the disease's spread. George Cross, an excursionists from New York city, was Willed at, Glen Onoko last evening while tryiug to board a moving train. Foster School Board A special meeting of Foster township school board was held Saturday evening with all members present except Messrs. Weber and Mcllugh.

The secretary will investi gate and roport at tho next meeting. The Flag Problem The objections filed by the National Slavonic Society, against the free entry of tho costly Hungarian flag which ar rived at New York yesterday as a gift to Hungarians in the United States, has received the attention of tho government of Austria-Hungary, and may develop into a international episode. Every Hungarian consul in tho United States has been notified to watch proceedings closely and to cable his government freely concerning anything that might lend to produce unpleasantness between the United States and Austria-Hungary. The Aiistro-llungarian government pro poses to go further and will probably attempt to prosecute tho loaders of the National Slavonic Society and ask for their extradition if sufficient legal evi dence can be accumulated. The Slovak leaders are defiant and express no fear of results. They take the ground that tho decision of the treasury department iu Washington not to admit the flag which has made all tho trouble duty froo is an official recog nition by this government of the justice of their position. Racial hatred which has endured for centuries between Slovaks aud Magyars is said to he responsible fur what has already occurred. A communication on the above subject was received today, too late for this issue. It will appear VYuduesday. LOCAL NOTES WRITTEN UP Short Items of Interest to All Readers.
