Labor day be ing a legal offices were holiday, all down town closed generally. Many other .business houses also closed up for the day, but some had to remain open. The : courts and public ' de partments were at astand slill. Flags floated from many buildings through out the city in honor of the day and the streets were thronged withjbight- seers from au early hour. Thai labor parade was the feature of th JTolly 25,000 men belonging to erery trade organization in th were ii line.' John Morrison, wearer, and a Master Workman of the Knights of Labor, was grand mar shal. - j i In the ranks were printing presses in operation, bakers' ovens in full blast, a number of large safes, a sail ing boat fully equipped and a (roup of 4i8quaws" represented by cigjjette inanuf acturtng girls. The proce ssion Was headed by a platoon of mounted police and the route was down Broad way from 13th to 4th street to 5th avenue to . Union Square. At this point fully 10,000 people were missed and the reviewing stand was located. On the stand were a large, number of . representative labor men and women. Among' these .was Henry George. General Master Workman Powder'y and Bey. Dr. McGlynn, who were an nounced to attend were not present. Notwithstanding the tabooing ofj red flags there were many of them in line, hut the red in each case was relieved by coloring less suggestive, which in letters of gold told which labor or ganization was carrying it. No dis tinctly socialistic flag was to be seen. The processioh wended its way up Fifth avenue to Forty-eecond street where it disbanded. The different trades then went to Brommer's Park to spend the afternoon and evening. Many of , the houses along the lin a of march were adorned with flags ind bunting.: . j THE DAT. Vt BALTTMORE.

The Civil Service Commission has sub mitted to the President the report of its investigation in April last of the complaint made by George A. Web ster against Anthony Fi Seeberger, Collector of the port of Chicago, transmitted to the President by the Civil Service Reform i League of Chicago and by him referred to the commission, charging violations of the civil service law. The report con sists of the "Opinion of the Comis sion'? signed by Commissioners Oberly and Lyman, a report to the commis sion by Commissioner Edgerton and another by Commissioner Lyman, who confines himself . principally to the testimony submitted at the investiga tion. The facts as to the inciting cause of this particular investigation indicate that it was brought about in this way: George A. Webster, a clerk ih the appraiser's department of the Chicago cueibm-house, an honorably discharged- wounded soldier, whose efficiency, Bobnetylwcid integrity were established, was requested to resign. He inquired for what .cause, and therein comes the element of confl :ct ing testimony. Webster says the i -lector told him the request was ma - because the pressure was too gre and he made some- vacancies for hi party. . Collector Seeberger, on the other hand, is quite sure he did ; not make use of .this language, but cannot re member what he jdid say and has since persistently declined. to give his real rensons, saying they were satis factory to himself but he proposed to keep thorn locked, up in his own bosom. On this point the main di vergence of opinion'comes in. Commissioners Oberly and Wyman hold that Mr. Webster had a right to his opinions and: should not have been discharged for Ihem if this were really the case as asserted, so long as he did not offensively obtrude those opinions or allow them to influence his official conduct, and that he had the right to know from the collector what the real reasons for his dis charge were. j j Commissioner Edgerton on the other hand, holds that the collector had the right to make the dismissal without assigning any reasons. Com-H missioner Edgerton in his, report says: The papers in the case were sent to the President by the Civil Service Re form League of Chicago, and not di rectly to the commissioners,and it was. apparent upon the force of these pa pers that the charges' were not only insufficient, but were incited and en couraged by the league, for two pur poses : ! To mace them the basis for a res- ent aJmrnutation imd by so dom. doing to bring prominently fdOTardra9 - active. civil service reformers" certain persons who might otherwise remain unknown. Mr. Webster states that he was re moved or coerced to resign for politi cal reasons, and this is all the charge) there is 1 against Mr Seeberger that deserves any consideration whateverJ This charge Mr. Seeberger emphati cally denies. Webster was not re moved; he resigned, j . Vhen Mr. Web ster resigned he abandoned all legal claim to his position,- and without claim or Tight why should he or the Chicago Reform League seek interven tion of the Presidentor an investiga tion by the commission unless for partisan political reasons? He sought aid and sympathy! .of this reform league, not. for restoration to office but for, that temporary newspaper prominence which might make rhore popular: the purposes of both, wjiich purposes were w antagonize ana to uis- credit me democratic; administration. The league might possibly demon strate; its pretended ; power and use fulness by an attempt to find some legal redress for such complainants as Mr. Webster, if any could be found to exist. But in these cases of re moval from office, restoration is not sought through the civil service com mission, for it is known to bo power less to effect it, but the purpose of the complaint is to fasten upon the democratic j i administration some charge of violation, if not of the letter, then of the spirit of the law; violations which are rarely, if ever, soucrht for during a republican administration, as whatever it might do would be called a f faithful observ ance of the law. The "leagues and "associations which are too often es sentially political in their character and purposes and not composed en tirely of consistent reformers, as well . .... as the individual pretenders to devo tion to the public interest: as civil service reformers, should concede to the President and to his party some honesty of purpose, ' and should be lieve that as far as it is in his power he will see that the civil 'service law and the rules , made by himself are faithfully executed. 1 1 So long as unreasoning hostility to the administration and persistent de nunciation are called vigilance and investigation in the j cause of honest government and civil service reform. bo long wm it oe Known tnac nenner .

Washington, Sept. 5. Before the hour for the opening of the Interna tional Medical Congress every seat in Albaugh's opera house was occupied. The orchestra and orchestra circle had been reserved for members of congress. Ladies were in a considerable uia- ority in the dress circle and gentle- a a mm an? men in the upper gallery. The pri vate boxes were filled by te wives and families of the officers of Con gress. President Cleveland, Secretary tfayard and' speaker Uarlisle were escorted by Dr. Garrett to seats upon the stage at 11 o'clock .and were greeted with applause by the audience. The assemblage was called to order by Prof. Henry M. Smith, of Phila delphia, chairman of the executive committee. He said that' to welcome the distinguished guests of the pro- ession nd show his interest in their great humane object the President of the United States had consented to open the Congress for organization He had the honor to announce Hon. Grover Cleveland, President of the United States of America. The President arose, bowed to the assemblage and when the applause had subsided, said : "I feel that the country should be congratulated to day upon the presence at bur capital of many of our own citizens and those representing foreign countries who have distinguished themselves in the science of medicine and are devoted to its further progress. My duty on this occasion is a very pleasing and a very brief one... It is simply to de clare the Ninth International Medical Congress now open for organization and the transaction of ; business." The chairman of the executive com mittee then proceeded to nominate the gentlemen agreed upon by the committee' to be officers of the con gress. "For the high office of presi dent of the congress, ' he said, "the committee unanimously nominate to you one widely known aa a scientific practitioner and an able teacher and medical author, Dr Nathan Smith Davis, of Chicago." Dr. Davis having been unanimously elected by acclamation, the chairman appointed Dr. Franceses Duranth, of Italy, and Deputy Surgeon-General Jeffrey A. Marston, U. 15. M.

Jofcr B- liannlto-SnfiAryisrtisr Surgeon-General of the United States Marine Hospital service, hav ing been nominated and unanimously elected Secretary General of the con gress, took his place and nominated the gentlemen agreed upon as vice presidents of the congress who were elected. ; The list contains a hundred or more names. ' xne oniy Americans on tne mi a - a l list are the ex-presidents of the Ameri can Medical Association, and the Sur geons General of the Army and Navy. The foreigners on the list include all who came as delegates from their respective governments together with many other of distinction. The pres ident of the congress put the question and the gentlemen named were elect ed in the usual: manner by acclama tion. A delegate: "Mr. President, would like to ask, sir, if it is proper to elect as vice-presidents those who are not members of the congress, protest and move to amend " President Davis: "It is hardly proper -to interrupt tne proceedings a m a a. now. It was impossible to know who would be here in person. The gen tlemen named were notified and they all accepted the places. ; "The list as read is elected, and have the honor to invite the vice-presidents to seats on the stace." Drs.Wm. B. Atkinson, Philadelphia, George Byrd Harrison, Washington and Henry Barga, of France, were elected associate secretaries: Dr. E. S F. Arnold, New York, treasurer; Dr. Richard G.

Garnett, charman committee of arrangements, an nounoed the social programme for the congress. It includes a conversa zione this evening at the Pension Office, an informal reception by the President and Mrs. Cleveland tomor row, a lawn party by Hon. Josiah Dent, a reception by Secretary and Mrs; Whitney, a reception and buffe banquet at the Pension office, a visit to Mt. Vernon upon United States ves sels and an excursion to Niagara Falls. He said it was a source of re crret and embarrassment that the month of September had been se lected for the congress and the com mittee felt it a duty to explain the ab senoe of that boundless hospitality for which Washington was so widely known. It was, he said, due to the absence from the city of so many of thosewho were at other seasons wont to open their doors to visitors. President Davis now introduced Hon.)T. F.

You, gentle men, will not, I hope, feel, and I am sure you will not be con sidered by us, as strangers in the United States, for not only has the ame of many of your number, whom to name might seem invidious long since surpassed the limits of your own lands, and been recorded in the world's annals of scientific attain mlent, but I take leave to say that here, especially will your claims for public respect and grateful acknowl edgement, due to your enlightened services, find prompt and hearty al lowance by populations who dwell amid the blessings of civil and re licrious liberty beneath the broad ban ner of these United States. If letters bej a republic,science is surely a democ racy, whose domain is penetrated and traversed py no royal road, nut is open on all sides and equally to all who with humility 'and .intelligence shall watch and wait for light as it is gradually disclosed by Divine Provi dence for the amelioration of man kind. . In this democratic republic the brotherhood of science can best real ize its universality; for here you wiU fin i institutions for the promotion of science in every department, and in no ie more conspicuously than in that of medicine and surgery, the most important of which are : voluntary of private citizens, men who in a great majority of cases, were pain fully limited in their associations with science and letters, who began life at the lowest round of fortune s ladder, but, thanks to the noble equities of our political system, rose without "in vidious bar" "to the highest level of material success and public useful ness.

Busy in every de partment of industrial pursuit, engrossed with diversified occupa tions .and burning with breathless ene gy that has left its traces uponthe physiognomy of our people, yet, be liev me, we are not deaf to the calls of humanity nor lacking in appreciation and grateful respect for the votaries of scie ice. We welcome this congress as guardians of the sanitation of the nations. In your profession we recog nize the noblest school of human use fulness, and in the progress of the de velopment of the laws of cure, miti gation of suffering, prolongation of human existence and efforts to disopver'the true principles and con ditions by which life can be made "wo -th living," we have learned to appieciate our debt to those who:e highest reward is the "still small voice of gratitude" and the consciousness of benefaction to the hum in race. Gentlemen, I confidently promise your convention a worthy au dience, not alone the members of your profession, here assembled nor to the limited number whom . this building can contain, but that vaster audience to v hom upon wings of electrical force your messdge will be daily borne far a ad wide to the listening ear of more than sixty millions of American citize ns. Sure am I that your mes sage will be worthy and equally that your thoughtful deliverance will be welcomed Wthe continent The closer relations of mankind which modern invention has induced, have jbeen ne cessarily accompanied by increased dissemination of disease, uid the need I is obvious of freqi lent in-, temational conference, that, in the grand sweep of scientific observation new discoveries in the healing art may be promptly tested and applied in cotknteraction. Forgive me, u, as one ot the great army of patients, I humbly petition the profession, that in your deliberations nature may be allow d a hearing when remedies are prOpc sed; thai her vis m&dicatrix may not b 1 omitted in computing the forces of cure, and that science may be re stricted: as often as possible to sound- ing tho alarm for cature (o hasten, as she surely will if permitted, to the defense of the point assailed. My duty ia very simple and I fear I have already overstepped its limit, for there was indeed httle more for me to say han to repeat the words cf the an cicnt.daiae whoso cottage was close by the battlefield of Waterloo, and, being eomewbat deaf and hearing the sound of the artillery when the " .vvMjp ittnivuw iUUUVOi, thought she heard some one knocking at her door and simply said 4Come iu." This may seem an unscientific illuBtratioii of auscultation and per cussion, but you need not make half the noise of Wellington or Bonaparte. and I can assure you the American people will bear you, and heartily say to you as I do for them.

There7 has been but one case of friction in the proceedings so far as has been learned. Some days ago -the committee invited Dr. Francisco Durante, of Rome, to answer in the name of Italy to the welcoming ad dross. Later when Senator Semmala arrived he claimed it as a right that be should make the response, repre senting the' government of Italy. The committee felt constrained to make the change land notified Prof.Durahte. This gentleman is much offended and -has withdrawn from the congress.
