    The Massachusetts Strike.

    GRAND PROCESSION IN HONOR OF ST. CRISPIN.

    BOSTON, Friday, March 16.

    The strikers of Lynn made a great turn out in procession to-day, numbering over 6,000. The spectators were more than double that number. Several hundred banners were borne by the strikers, both male and female, and the city was decorated in many places with flags and streamers. The procession comprised, besides all the strikers of Lynn, several military and fire companies, with bands of music, and delegations of ladies from Swampscot, Marblehead, Danvers, Saugus, Reading, Stoneham, Woburn, Beverly, Salem, and other places. The weather was delightful, and the proceedings harmonious and gratifying to the participators.
