Twenty excursions from out of town
places visited the resort yesterday. empty

200, coo brought down in trolleys, trains
and by steamboat. The methods of
the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company
in the handling of eScursionsts caused
MANY distressing scenes about the West

three lads of ~, brought down on an ex-

brush in the prison yard where he was
working Deputy Snow saw him jump

haitian Fills Trains and Boats.

When New York has two fine days in
succession and especially when those two
days fall on Saturday and Sunday, every
body seems to move out of town. Be-
ginning at noon on Saturday and lasting
until last evening there was a rush to the
seashore and country that, in point OF
numbers, eclipsed anything in the men,

"You would think" said a car starter
at the Brooklyn Bridge. that everybody
who had the price and time went to Coney
Island or in that direction on Saturday
We handled an enormous crowd on Sat
urday, but l wouldn't like to say it was
a record breaker, because we've had big
crowds before.
For instance, we had great big crowd
to-day. You would think that this was
the only outlet for persons who wanted
to get away from the city for day; but
I'll tell you, young man, that if you take
trip around to few of the ether places
where it is possible for man TO skip away
from town, tle1 you'll %orCer why the
city doesn't look like All abandoned village.
| suppose if man had the time. inclination
and facilities, he could figure out that more
people left town Saturday and to-day
than on any other two days combined.

went to the ferries leading 10 the railroad
terminals in Jersey City and then crossed

BUILDING STRIKE TEST TODAY
EMPLOYERS HAVE 1000 IRON
WORKERS READY, THEY SAY.
Parks and Ills Followers striving to Keep
the Unions in Line Against the ATbltrn.
ton Agreement Engineers
May withdraw Their Acceptance

Efforts will be made by the contractors
to put men at work to-day on all buildings
now under way in the city. This is in ac-
cordance with the letter of the Building
Trades Employers Association 10 the mem
hers of the Housesmiths and Bridgemen's
Union giving them until to-day to accept
the plan of arbitration.
The Parks faction of the Housesmiths
and Bridgemens Union has been doing
good deal of missionary work and it will
not be known until this evening or Tuesday
morning whether Parks can block the
general resumption of work.
According to the employers, thousand
applicants are ready to go to work under
the arbitration agreement, which they Will
sign individually.
the members Of the United Portable and
Safety Engineers Union, which has been
expelled from the Board of Building Trades
for signing the arbitration agreement
Now the engineers, or some OF them at
least, are saying that the vote by which the
agreement was approved was not regular
1t was said that not enough men we're
present at the meeting to make the vote
fair test A number OF the unsatistied mem
bers said that the vote will be reconstructed
next Saturday night by the union.
The fact that the engineers have received
promises that some of the work formerly
done by members of the Housesmiths
and Brdgemen's Union shall go to them
has alarmed the Parks faction among the
iron workers, it is said
The marble cutters union is also balk-
ing at the arbitration agreement. Last
week it was said that they had definitely
agreed to accept it. Now it is announced
that they have yet to take final vote.
This announcement is also laid to the in
fluence of Parks and his followers.
Employers yesterday were very hopeful
that work could be resumed in good shape
to-Gav. They believed that with the 1000
brick!ayers in the various unions and the
twelve unions in the old Board OF Building
Trades which have signed the agreement
any attempt Of Parks's followers to delay
work will be futile. An officer of one of
the hricklayers' unions said yesterday.
The rank and file of the unions are sick
and tired of fighting merely to keep up the
prestige of two or three walking delegates.
The business agent is a necessity for the
union, but too many unions have been
letting the walking delegate do their think
ing"
