to make the picnic huge success. When
the party left the picnic grounds there
was no one who would not signify his
unanimous approval Of the outing.
The grove of the outing park was
equipped with various devices for the
amusement of the pleasure seekers.
Sporting events constituted the main at
fractions and at times rivalry between
the two churches reached keen point.
The Barre campfire girls started the
sporting events of the day, which seemed
destined Barres way, with a victory
over the girls from Montpelier in tug
of-war match. The junior boys of the
Hedding church likewise triumphed over
the Montpelier juniors in the tug-of-war

The Barre church forged to the front

SAY THAT STRIKE
DEPENDS ON ROADS
But Interest Seems to Be Centered in
Railroad Disagreement on Federal
Conference in Washington.

New York, July l4.-Whether or not
q strike of more than 10000 conductors
and trainmen of 45 eastern railroads
shall be declared within the next few
days depends upon whether the rail-
roads recede from their present position
and withdraw from their refusal to ar
bitrate the wage and other differences
between the companies and the men;
This declaration was made last night
in statements by the mems representa-
tives after the grievance committee
from the various roads, gathered here in
conference, had ratified the strike vote
Of the men recently taken and author
lied A. B. Garretson. president of the
Brotherhood OF Railway Conductors, and
W. G. Lee, president of the Brotherhood
of Railway Trainmen. to issue the for
NAL strike order to their respective or
CARNATIONS.
Peace prospects centered upon the at
titude of the roads, the men declared,
with the possibility that a way out of
the deadlock will be supplied by to-day's
conference in Washington, where amend
ments to the Erdman law, under which
previous disputes between the roads and
their men have been arbitrated, will be
considered with view TO pressing thelr
speedy passage upon congress. The gen.
eral eommitte of the two organizations
authorized Messrs. Garretson and Lee to
delay the strike order long enough to
permit them to attend the Washington
conference between President Wilson,
representatives of the railroads and
their employees and prominent public
men,
The mems representatives will take
part in the conference in the hope that
it will result in passage of the Erdman
law amendments, increasing from three
to six or more the number of arbitra-
tors authorized to act in disputes be-
tween the railroads and their employees.
1t has been made plain that the roads
chief objection to Erdman act arbitra-
tion was that too much responsibility
rested upon single man, the third or
neutral arbitrator.

tion in Boston,

Saturdays Quincy, Mass. Ledger had
the following account of Quincy's efforts
to secure its own day at the coming

rooms on Friday evening, to consider
having a grand Quincy day at the close
OF the National Retail Monument Deal

dealers will he in Boston from all see
tions of the United States and Canada.
These are the men that our manufac-
turers sell their products to, and as
Barre, VT, is making preparations to
entertain them, and take them by
special train from Boston, Quincy must
awake TO their opportunity. 1t was
thought by some of the committee. that
perhaps the merchants would cooperate
and the Boards of Trade and make it
one grand Quincy day
The idea that met with most favor.
was to have automobiles assemble at
Hotel Brunswick at $3.50 in the morning
and bring the retail dealers to Quincy
via. the Fenway to Jamaica Plain.

through Forest Hills cemetery. to Mil
ton, and to West Quincy to inspect the
principal qourries, and then to South
Quincy to inspect the granite cutting
and polishing plants.
From there to City Square where a
short address of welcome would be
made and then for an inspection of the
Fore River shipyard and then across to
New Downer Landing where a real
Rhode Island shore dinner might be
served. As the New England Memorial
Convention bureau has promised the
convention sail down the harbor to
the briny deep, the steamer could be at
the street railway power house wharf.

Minot's Light. around the outer harbor.

LARGE CREAMERY
WAS DESTROYED
Loss Near Lyndonville Last Night Was
Over Sao,ooo-Some of As Tons of
Butter May Be Saved.

Lyndonville. July 1.-THE creamery
located near this village was burned in
a fire which started at $3.50 O'Clock last
night. In half an hour the building was
wiped out. 1t was one of the largest
creameries on the east side of the state
and was owned by the Lyndonville
Creamery Co., of which T. n. Vail is
president. The loss is estimated between
$4,000 and $4,000, and the insurance is
Sl0,500
There were stored in the building 45
tons of butter, and it is possible that
some of this butter was saved as il was
packed in several inches of salt and was
in the permanent cold storage refrigera-
tor, which was not burned badly. 1t is
probable that the structure will be re-
built.
The fire originated in the pit near the
furnace in the boiler-room. The fire
department responded promptly and did
good work.
