Excursion Throngs Fall in Line Two Hours Before First Boat Starts for the People’s Playground by,the Sea. ‘The enormous crowds which packed all excursion boats from stem to stern on their first trips to the var!- ove resorts made the officials of the different lines admit that Labor Day this year is a record-breaker. Realizing that on account of clear and sunny skies pleasure-seeking folks would be up bright and early men were stationed selling tickets at the excnraion piers two hours 2efore the firs’ boats left. Althyugh the first boat of the Iron Steamboat Company to Coney Island did not leave Pler 1 North River un- til 9.30 o'clock this morning, a con- stant stream of people could be seen flocking to the pier for nearly two hours before. Trains and Cars Fa Every Broadway car and every “L" [train oarried {ts full complement of | passengers who aiighted at different points along the route, flocking to the exoursion boats that carried them to seaside resorts. ‘The scene at the Battery pler, where | several different lines of excursion boats leave, was perhaps without parallel. A long line of bumantty could be seen stretching from the Thirty-ninth street y and the Broadway car terminals Battery pler all the morning. Every few minutes a big steamer would arrive and in a few minutes leave, toaded to the rails with excursioniats, but without making any apparent de- crease in the size of the crowds on shore. Rockaway seemed to be the objective point of many In the crowds. The Gen, Slocum, and Grand Republic, large ng capacity of perhaps 3,500, had standing room only. None of the steamers, however, were overcrowded, owing to the watchful eye of the deputies stationed by Collector of the Port N.
