Show THE DAY IN CHICAGO. Two Big Parailes Eight Thousand Carpenters Car-penters 011 a Strike, Chicago, Sept. 1. Labor' day was generally observed in this city. There were two parades this morning, 0110 under the auspices of the trades and labor assembly with 20,000 men in line, and one by the knights of labor, who turned out 1000 constructively. All union carpenters in Chicago, about eight thousand, are, on a strike today, but as they are participating in tho Labor Day parade there is no evidence evi-dence of the strike beyond an idleness on the buildings in course of construction, construc-tion, similar to that which extends to other branches of labor on tho same account. |
