LABOR MEN ABANDON PARADE IN NEW YORK (By Associated Press) NEW YORK. Sept. 5. For the first time in many years. New York witnessed no Labor Day parade today. Unemployment and the disinclination of labor men to spend money for uniforms and bands, were given as reasons for abandonment of parade plans. A referendum taken by tho Central ' Trade and Labor council showed about even sentiment for and against the parade. John Sullivan, president of the council said. Votes for the parade came largely from unions having large numbers of unemployed, while those in which unemployment is lightest, voted against it. Mr. Sullivan said it was dpemed advisable to converse all available funds for aid of those of the unemployed who were in need.

Although the truce has been observed throughout the remainder of Ireland, Belfast conHEAVY SEAS PREVENT DAY AT ATLANTIC CITY FOR HARDING'S PARTY CBv Associated Press) ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept 5. Definite information was received here this afternoon that President Harding and his party aboard the residential yacht, Mayflower, would not put in at Atlantic City because of the heavy seas. The information came in a wireless dispatch from the Mayflower. It added the president and his party was proceeding back to Washington by way of Hampton Roads. A stiff northeast wind has been blowing off the Jersey coast since early last night and unless it moderates a landing would be difficult, as the Mayflower draws too much water to permit her to enter the channel at the inlet. George Christian, the president's secretary, and George Van Fleet, manager of his publishing concern at Marion, Ohio, and Mrs. Van Fleet arrived here last night and made reservations for the presidential party at one of the larger hotels. Fred W. Upham. treasurer of the National Republican committee, Alexander l'. Moore, or Pittsburg, and United States Senators Johnson, Calif., and Hitchcock, Nebraska, were to welcome the president.

According to the statement of witnesses, the boy was running along the side of the machine, which had slowed down to leave the road, about two miles east of Eaton. The boy was taken to the office of a Richmond doctor where an X-ray examination disclosed a broken hip. He wa3 given attention and taken back to his home in Eaton.

wounded during the past week. Belfast is the capital of Ulster and strongly anti-Sinn Fein.

SELF-STYLED DRY MEN HOLD UP AUTOMOBILES Flashing revolvers and declaring themselves to be revenue officers, five men stopped two machines at a cross roads about a mile south of Five Points on the Straight Line road Saturday and Sunday evenings and searched the machines of their victims for liquor. Sheriff Wadman was called to the scenes of the hold-ups on both occasions but failed to find any trace. of the so-called government agents. The victims of the hold-up on Saturday night did not give their names. They stated that nothing of value had been taken from them. Sunday night Mrs. Anna Staten was stopped by the highwaymen. She was allowed to go without careful examination of her car. Isaac Weesner, 53, Dies; Funeral Services Tuesday Isaac Roscoe Weesner, 53 years old, died at his home Sunday evening at 6 o'clock. He is survived by the widow, Mrs. Mable Weesner, and two sisters. Short funeral services will be held Tuesday afternoon at the home and the body will be shipped to Wabash, Ind., for burial Wednesday morning. Friends-may call at any time. NEW COUNTRIES (Continued from Page One.) erland, had been a leading candidate, but opposition to h,im developed in several quarters. Gustave Ador, former president of Switzerland, and Paul Himans, former minister of foreign affairs of Belgium, also were prominently mentioned. South American delegates discussed just before the meeting the possibility of a Spanish speaking president in the event that none of those already mentioned was elected. Dr. Aristide de Aguero y Betancourt, Cuban minister to Holland, was a favored delegate among the Spanish-Americans. Bolivia Discordant' Element Bolivia appeared to supply the only possible discordant note, intending to have the Taona-Arica problem placed upon the agenda of the assembly against the strong opposition of Chile. Bolivia was also desirous of having the assembly consider the revision of the treaty of 1914. The appointment of the six major commissions, in which each member of the league would be represented, was also upon the program for today. It was expected these commissions would sit each afternoon and that the assembly would decide to hold its sessions during the mornings. By this plan, and with other time saving devices, delegates hoped to finish their work within three weeks. Hungary was the only new applicant for membership, but the assembly already had before it the applications of Letvia, Lithuania. Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Armenia and Lichtenstein. It was deemed p'ossible that the assembly might be called upon to pass upon the admission of Germany, and it was said there were several other nations who would support her claims for admission. The assembly opened with greater animation than that of last year, but the aspect of the gathering was little changed. There was a small sprinkling of women in the delegations, particularly in the Scandinavian. A picturesque note was furnished by Indian delegates in native costumes.

LIGHTER RECEIPTS

OF HOGS SEEN AS PRICE DROP RESULT "After a break of as much as $3 per hundred on hogs during August. lighter receipts were naturally the rule," says the Glen Miller Stock Yards weekly statement. "This also caused an uncertainty as to the future among both the feeders and the speculators, each being afraid to establish a work ing basis. While one man's guess is as good as another's, it is being freely predicted by both feeders and pack-' ers. that hogs will sell at $6 or less in September. At this time when new corn hogs make theii appearance, it is hard to establish their value, the shrink being heavy and dressing percentages poor for the butcher." Six carloads of stock only were received at the yards last week, consisting of 4S9 hogs, weighing 100,210 pounds and costing $8,509.94 and 18 cattle delivered by Clifford Albey, of Boston at $5. Lambs brought $4 to $6 and sheep, $1 to $2; calves, $6 to $10; light hogs, $8.25 and heavies, $7 to $7.50; stags, $3 to $4. The Pittsburg market was off 25 cents Monday morning, lights being $9.75 and heavies $9.00. Sellers at the yards during the week were: Bert Skinner, Charles Hart, Joe Brower, C. C. Railsback, Arch Knight, Warner Pemberton, Harry Jordan, Nathan Charles, E. E. Sinks, Charles Hill. James Burly, W. E. Norris, Chas. Atkinson, Chas. Stigleman, T. L. Manson.

MOORISH POSITIONS

ARE SHELLED HEAVILY BY SPANISH ARTILLERY By Associated Press) MELILLA. Sept. 5. Moorish posi tions near this city have been heavily shelled and the Spanish artillerymen have been laying down heavy bom bardments of ravines around Gourougou, south of here. Two captured Spanish cannon which the Moors had mounted have been rendered useless, according to reports received here, by the disappearance of their breach blocks. The gunners in charge of the cannon were punished by death, while the captain of the guard was imprisoned under threat of execution nnles3 the blocks were restored. " Native reports state that S4 Spanish, prisoners from Nador have been taken into the interior under escort of 400 Riffians. Twenty-eight other prisoners taken at Nador are reported to have been killed because sickness prevented them working. Several native chieftains are said to have protested against the killing, and to have left camp. Yesterday was the Moslem NewYear and prior to that event proclamations had been posted in market places calling upon all faithful Mohammedans to gather at Nador for the celebration, when "great events" were promised. The French military authorities have concentrated 6,000 troops, mostly Senegalese, along the frontier to forestall any possible Moorish attack. Disarm Natives They have also disarmed natives In the French zone of Morocco. A delegation of prominent members of the Beni-Hassen and Beni-Ouriarel tribes recently visited French positions and asked that their territory be occupied by French troops, as they feared Spanish reprisals. The reply was that they had better cease fighting against Spain. Spanish troops are gathering rapidly here and Melilla is beginning to feel more elbow room, but with fanatic Moorish tribesmen pressing closely around the suburbs any exit of the town has been perilous. The crowded city receives a hail of rifle bullets from hidden marksmen night after night, and this fire is oftentimes continued in the daytime. Military encampments in the outskirts, where Spanish soldiers are lying, are subjected to a continual fire from snipers. Places Are Taken The civilian population, which numbered about 38,000 before the approach of the Moors, has been somewhat decreased, but large detachments of troops. Red Cross units and other army auxiliaries have more than taken the places of those who left. The fortified area surrounding the city on the land side is a dangerous place for civilians, who rarely venture there, as their appearance would be liable to bring volleys from dominating Moorish positions. IRA DEARHEART HURT IN AUTO ACCIDENT Ira Dearhart, 221 North Eighteenth street, was painfully injured about 7:30 Sunday evening when he was struck by n automobile driven by Miss Esther Hamilton, 225 South Fif teenth street. Ttte accident occurred at West Main and Second street. Dearhart was riding a bicycle when struck by the machine. Witnesses were unable to state exactly how the accident happened, most of them maintaining that the automobile was not speeding. Examination at Reid Memorial hospital showed that Dearhart had received a dislocated hip and numerous bruises. To Investigate Moving of St. John's School A committee of five was appointed by St. John's Lutheran church Sunday to investigate the feasibility of moving the church school from the present building on South Fourth street to a building owned by the church at the northeast corner of South Seventh and E streets. This committee will make its report at an early date. School, however, will begin in the old building Tuesday. John Macadam, inventor of macadam roads, was a Scotchman. iiEuiHnimiHmintmiitniimnmiiitniitiititttnmKiitHittnntinmwnuimumi'. Winter Top Onion Sets If OMER G.
