British Railway to Send Representa-

New York. Aug. 28-The Northeastern
railway. one of the great British sys-
TENS, is to send representatives to this
country in the persons of It's general
manager, general freight agent, loco
motive superintendent and dock eng1-
neer. The general purpose of the visit
viii be to gain an exhaustive knoWl-
edge of railroad management in gen
eral and railroad dock construction IN
particular.
It is the intention of the British road
to construct a line along the north bank
of the river Tees with view of de-
veloping the industries of that region
The Northeastern Railway company
headquarters is at York It's main line
serves as a connecting link between the
Yorkshire terminus of the Great North
ern railway and the Scotch roads The
system is the third in Importance as
regards mileage in the United King
DOM
Within the past two years prominent
officials Of the Great Northern, Midland
and Lancashire and Yorkshire railways
have come here to inquire into trans

Will BE TWO PICNICS.
Trades and Labor People to Go to
Vinewood-

There Will be two Labor day picnics
in Topeka this year. one at Garfield
park and one at Vinewood The two
picnics are being run under different
homogeneous, and there is consider
able bad feeling as a result OF the
split"
1t has always been customary for
the Trades and Labor assembly to hold
a picnic at Garfield park on Labor
day This year the Trades and Labor
council agreed to join in with Mar
shall's band and the MOdOcs, and have
a grand celebration at Garfield. AL
least that is one side of the story. 1t IS
further claimed that the Trades and
Labor council became dissatisfied with
the way things were being run, and
withdrew from the compact
Marshalls band and the MOdocS Will
20 ahead with their Garfield park pic
mic and the Trades and Labor council
have secured the use of VinewOod park
The NineWOOd park picnickers have is
sued a proclamation calling upon all
laboring men to attend the Vinewood
park picnic and not be deceived by
base limitations" They say that the
only and original picnic for laborlng
men is the one to be held at NineWO0d.
The Trades and Labor council has IS
sued the following statement:
NOTICE TO UNION MEN.
We want to call your attention 20 the
fact that the only Labor day picnic for
laboring men IS to be held at Vinewood
park under the auspices and direction
Of the Trades and Labor council Re
not deceived by notices advertising a
Labor day picnic elsewhere All labor
ing people, union or non-unlon, are cor
daily invited to meet with us al Vine
wood There will be good music, good
speaking, a general good time. and no
charge at the gate. Further notice viii
be given later as to programme, etc
