John E. McDougald followed with a carefully prepared address om the sub- Jec “Labor Unions; Thelr Purposes and Benefits to the Wage Worker.” Mr. McDougald spoke at some length upon the need of ofganization by workingmen in order that their interests might be pro- tected. He called attention to the state | workmen prior to the organization of | abor unions, and compared it with their state since unionism has become a factor in industrial life. Since the formation of | solid unions the wage scale has advanced fully 5 per cent.

It raised them to higher planes of | usefulness and made them better and | nobler citizens of the commonwealth. J. ¥. Kearns, ex-president of the | Building Trades Council of Alameda | County, delivered a brief address, in which he spoke of the peace and har- | mony existing between the council and all who have relations with that body.

Because the Build- ing Trades Council of California did not lack in any of these things its operations were uniformly successful, The addresses were followed by rag- Was unremittingly indulged in by hundreds. Racing and Other Sports. The afternoon hours were devotedfl to racing and other outdoor sports. A fine programme of events had been prepared | by the committee, and with few excep- tions this was carried out to the letter. The first evént was the grand Labor day contest for the Phelan cup, to be award- ed to the union making 1fie best appear- ance. This trophy has been twice won v the Cement Workers’ Union, and the members were determined to capture the valuable memento permanently. The con- testants were the Brotherhood of Car- penters and Joiners, Stair-builders’ Union and Cement Worl After the march the judges were unable to decide between the ‘respective merits of the Stair-buila- ers and Cement Workers. Decision was consequently reserved until next Satur- day evening, when the prizes will be dis- tributed. The union races were hotly contested, and excited great enthusiasm.

Ifted tool in the regular course of work for fifteen weeks. Others, numbering into the thousands, had not done work nor recelvéd wage in six weeks. Their thoughts were centered upon the indus- trial strife to which they are a party and perhaps the chief sufferers. and tq them ihe parade was nothing more not less than a display of the numerical strength and the steadfastness and determination of their forces. There were many whose leaders had induccd them to break con- tracts solemly made with employers and who wait with wavering hofve from day to day for word that the leaders have reached agreement with employers. And there were thousands heavy of heart for the misfortuncs of their fellows, but thankful that their own unions had had grievances less sore or had considered contracts more sacred. Enthusiasm was at =2 high pitch throughout the parade, though it was most noticeable with the unions that are out on strike and, of course, at the times when. the densest crowds of strike sym- pathizers were being passed. A few floats 2nd banners relieved the monotony of the long line and thousands of small flags were carried by the paraders and waved in unison when something occurred (o arouse a display of enthusiasm. The start of the parade was made at a guarter past 11 o'ciock, fifteen minutes Jater only than the schedule time. The s are not marching clubs and the short delay and the dis- patch with which the line of march was traversed are proofs of the care and ablil- ity with which the details were planned and put into execution. Dense Crowds Line Streets. The van of the procession swung Into Market street from Kearny at 11: It was 1:20 when the last section of the last division reached Newspaper Corner, an hour and three-quarters having been oc- cupied by the procession in passing that point. Scarcely had the last man of thé iast union in line turned from Kearny into Market street when the band that led the parade came marching back down Mar- et, followed by the machinists, on the countermarch after having paraded out ‘to Van Ness avenue and out the avenue 10 Bush street and back. From the ferry Gepot to Van Ness ave- nue dense crowés lined the streets. pack. ed the thickest near the water front and &t such points as Montgomery and Mar~ ket and Kearny and Market and thin- ning out as the distance grew from the point of starting. Outbursts of cheers frequentiy greeted unions whose behavior | eince the inception of the strike has won public sympathy or whose sturdiness of bearing or other attribute excited admir- 2tion. The paraders themselves cheered each wother and greeted popular firms and per- sons with salvos of applause. The Exam- iner was frequently greeted with cheers and the waving of flags, but in the main ‘the cheering came from the unions that a&re out on sirike. The men who are working were less demonstrative and many of the unions passed Newspaper Corner without any recogn services of the yellow journal. Printers Significantly Silent. The allied printing trades were signifi- cantly silent when the Examiner building was being passed and efforts to stampede them into applause for that paper failed ignominiously. One member of the Typo- graphical Union shouted ““Hats off to the Examiner:” and suited the action to the word, but his was the only hat that came off, and his brother printers marched on Wwithout a cheer. Typographical Union No. 21, Printing Pressmen No. 24, Web Pressmen No. 4, Newspaper Mailers No. 18, Photo Engravers No. 8, Stereotypers No. 29 and the Bookbinders constitute the allied printing trades, the second division of the parade. These were the only un- lons in the parade that have members in the employ of the Examiner, and not one of them sent up cheers for that paper. g'the‘"C%l; Jas frequently hooted, but not e unions t le_mpla)'. t have men in its, ivery wagons and the longshoremen were particularly liberal with t OfAdXSaDDll'OVaLs heir expressions s early as 9 o'clock the bustle - citement commenced in the vlcln(t;fug.' :;e starting point at the corner of Mission and East streets.

The crowd along Mar- ket street, particularly from Third to Sixth street, was immense.

Eastwick of Philadelphla was ar- i raigned in the Guildhall Police } Court to-day, charged with hav- i ing forged a railway certificate | of the value of £100,000. Sensational evi- dence was presented. The defendant was accommodated with a chair and sat the whole time listlessly in the dock. The public prosecutor said the defend- ant had been residing in England for eighteen months and was believed to be an American of wealth. She had been | living with persons sald to be her father and sister at the Metropole, London, and | had been coaching through England and | living generally in the most expensive J\manfierg. Latterly she had removed to Hempstead for the benefit of her health. | She obtained an introduction to Beeton, a member of the stock exchange, to whom the defendant represented herself to be the owner of securities worth, | roughly, £500,000. She said she wanted to | buy a thousand shares of United States Steel Corporation as a speculation. This operation required £1000, which, the de- fendant said, she did not have, but as she wanted to invest. immediately she told Beeton she had cabled to a trust com- pany in Philadelphia to break open her strong box and forward the money to her by mail. She added that the trustee tele- graphed to her, refusing to do so until they had possession of her key. Raises the Certificate. The defendant, August 12, went to the Charing Cross branch of the Credit Lyon- aise and asked the manager to buy two shares of Canadian Pacific Railway. The manager took the order but afterward found it difficult to get so small a number | of shares and_wrote to the defendant at | the Red Lion Hotel, Henley, asking if he would be allowed to get five or ten shares. As a result five shares were bought August 15 and the defendant duly sent her check. She wrote to Béeton August 15 from_Stratford-on-Avon, saylng she expected a thousand anadian acific shares from New York and wanted a loan on them as she was desirous of buying more United States Steel. Beeton re: lied that he did not think there would ge any difficulty in raising a loan on such securities, She received a certificate for five Canadian Pacific shares on August 18, The prosecutor said that by August 28 the certificate had been altered, that the name of the original holder had been erased and the Wame of Marie Josephine Eastwick had been substituted. The word “five” in the number of shares and the numerals had all been altered, so that appeared to be a certificate for a thousand instead of for five shares. ‘This was skill- fully done, three kinds of type and ink | “rally” camé from the tramping workers and strikers. At Van Ness, as the parade turned into that thoroughfare, a good natured crowd assembled and there was considerable badinage between those who composed, the demonstration and the spectators. From Sixth street to Eleventh on Market and on Van Ness avenue to Bush street the crowd perceptibly thinned out. But the well-known points, such as the steps of St. Ignatius College and of ary's. Cathedral, and empty private residences held their coteries of sightseers. As the crowds came down from the western lim- its of the city the numfers were slightly increased, but at no time was there any being used, showing considerable prepara- tion.” The only mistake was that the document bore a _shilling revenue stamp instead of one for £10, which a certificate for one thousand shares would carry. The defendant sent the altered document, with a letter, to Beeton, August 26, asking him to buy a thousand United States Steel shares in the firm name, also requesting a loan of £4000, adding that she was going in for motor cars rather heavily, and was about to purchase a stud farm. Denial of the Defendant. The defendant wired Beeton from Bux- ton, August 2, asking if the certificate had arrived. In the meanwhile Beeton's clerk, on receiving the certificate, noticed the stamp irregularity and went to the Canadian Pacific Railroad office, where it was pronounced to be a forgery. Beeton wired this information to the defendant, asking for an explanation. She replied: “Call me on the telephone,” and _then wired: ‘‘Have sent no certificate. Don't understand."" Beeton notified the police of London and a detective arrested the defendant at the Palace Hotel, Buxton, Saturday after midnight. The recelpt for the registered letter in which the certificate was sent was found among the defendant’s effects. The testimony of Beeton and others was heard, generally sustaining the prosecut- or’'s statément. The detective said the de- fendant told shim she had practically no defense. The magistrate asked if the person who ‘was said to be her father was present and a well-dressed, somewhat distinguished looking ‘man stood up amenr the senis reserved for spectators. The magistrate directed him to be seated. In conversa- tion with a correspondent the man said he was the father of Marie Eastwick, who came from Philadelphia. Poses as Morgan’s Friend. The general tenor of Beeton’s evidence was that the defendant impressed him as being a woman of wealth and position. She told him that while she was in Rus- sia the Czar placed a train_at her dis- posal and that J. Pierpont Morgan had written her advising her to buy United States Steel common in anticipation of an immediate rise. The defendant’s father was called up by the court and consented with the great- est willingness that his and his daughter's trunks be searched and the prisoner, speaking for the first time, said: “‘You are ‘welcome to search them all.” The defendant was remanded until Sep- tember 9. She will be afforded speci rivileges on account of the poor state of her health and will be examined by doc- TS, Her counsel, who was interviewed, in- timated that the prisoner was suffering from temporary insanity.~Her father sald Although admirable arrangements had been made by the police for the preserva- tion of order their services were scarcely needed.

Miss Eastwick a Great Favorite in Philadelphia. PHLADELPHIA, Sept. 2.—Friends of Miss Marie Josephine Eastwick learned with surprise to-day the story of her trouble in London. Although she has only been an occasional visitor to Phila- delphia in recent years, her charming per- sonality and her high social position in this city have, despite her indifference to society, made her well known in local so- cial circles. Miss Eastwick is about 32 years old. She | is a grandaughter of the late Harrison Eastwick. Her father, Edward P. East- wick, was formerly associated with the Havemeyers in the sugar refining business | and when he retired, fourteen years ago, he was reputed to be a millionaire. Fond of horses, dogs and all outdoor sports, she was from the first averse to the social prominence that her family’s position and wealth assured her. In course of time her spirit of independence aserted itself so strongly that at frequent intervals she was estranged from the members of her immediate famliy and at such times she made her ..ome with other relatives. During the last twelve years she has devoted herself to travel, making her longest stay in England. Occasional- ly she came to Philadelphia to visit the family of her uncle, Andrew N. East- wick, and her aunt, Mrs. Isaac Jones. While in this country she regarded New York as her home and stopped at tne Waldorf-Astoria. She_made numerous visits to her brother, Spencer Eastwick, who is in the sugar business in New Or- leans. Several years ago Miss kastwick in- herited from her grandmother an interest in an estate said to be worth $100,000. About this time she and her father be- came estranged, it is said, and with the capital afforded by her grandmother's legacy the young woman sought fortune &s a speculator in the stock market, but with what success her relatives or friends do not know. Later on her health gave way and a reconciliation with her father foliowed. She was sent to a sanitarium, Where she remained for several months. Upon recovering her health she again went to England and became distinguish- ed as a whip. She did most of her coach- ing in Scotland and was frequently ac- companied by dlstinguished Englishmen and Americans. Miss Eastwick left this country about eighteen months ago, ac- companied by her father and sister Hulda. She was last heard of in Scotland. .HAWWH—H—WWWWW. doorway and smiled at the crowd. the Tesidence usually oceupied by Boneh Commissioner Newhall, at the corner of Sutter street and Van Ness avenue, was reached there were cries of ‘“Seab, “Newhall's residence,” etc. As the pa- rade countermarched ' the derisive cries were changed into loud huzzahs for each marching union, the representatives of the affiliated fron trades, who headed the parade, coming in for the greatest display of Eg&:lteious g;;eutngs.d er by accident or design of Grand Marshal Casey the mocaBart were compelled to walk several miles further than was called for by the route of ession.

For a momient he | was taken by surprise and then ran for | his life, hotly pursued by the mob of | strikers, whose numbers were quickly augmented till there were about 200.

Instead of returning on the east side of Van Ness avenug when Bugh street, the turning point, was reached, Casey swung the head of his column to the west. This necessitated moving east along the south side of Market street as far as Third street and returning on the north side in order to reach Mechanics’ Pavilion without breaking the column in two. Third street was reached at 1:35 p. m.. just two hours after the parade entered the street. At that time there were two lines of men, each arranged four, six and ! eight abreast, extending from the corner of Market and Third streets to Van Ness avenue and along Van Ness avenue to | Bush street. This affords an excellent idea of the length of the procession and a ready means of approximating the num- ber in’line. Many men left the ranks at Market and Third streets and in conse- | Guence the crowd that was expected at the pavilion was small in numbers. Lieu- tenant John Martin had a force of twenty | police officers there, but they found little | difficulty in controlling the crowd. A large number of women ‘tered the pa. vilion, but did not remain long. | | Flags and Bright-Hued Banners. | ‘While no attempt at extraordinary dis- | play was made; the line at all times was a moving mass of color. Nearly every | man carried an American flag or a deco. rated cane. Every man wore the badge in bright colors told the spectators the name of the -union that was marching by. Many carried emblematic devices of | their craft. The most effective display was made by the 140 members of Horseshoers’ Union No. 25. Headed by an immense floral an- vil, borne on the shoulders of four stur- dy hammer wielders, the officers of the { union marched. Then came a float with a forge, from which horseshoes were « turned out as the parade moved. One woman on Van Ness avenue begged for one for “good luck™ and a_warm horse- | shoe was tossed to her. -She picked it up in her gloved hand, and before she knew what she was holding there was 4 | strong odor of burned kid and a woman | looking for a damp place in which “t§" drop a hot shoe.

Though yesterday was a holiday and there was but very little work attempted on the water front, the stevedores who have contracted to load the deep-water ships at Port Costa were not idle. Most of the pickets on duty along the front turned out with their various unions and the stevedores were not slow to seize upon the opportunity to send a number of non- union hands to the upper bay. A launch contalning twenty-one men, hired by Menzies & Co., left the foot of Jackson street in the morning for Port Costa. Where they were put to work loading the Engelhorn with wheat. Eleven negroes were sent to South Vallejo on the steamer Herald by Whiteside & Co. to load the Foyledale with flour. About the only vessel on which there was any work done along the front yes- terday was the collier Pleiades. It was expected that the work of discharring her would be completed last night so that she could leave for the north to-day for an- other load of coal. ol DR M AGHLIN S 2 Y ELE[\'(](DELTQ' | | Do you admire physical perfection in man or woman?
