A SPORTING ACT
BRITISH RAILWAYS AND N.Z. PAVILION AT GLASGOW EXHIBITION. EFFORT TO RUSH EXHIBITS. (Recd This Day, 10.50 a.m.) LONDON, April 12. The sportsmanship of the British railways promises to save the New Zealand pavilion at Glasgow Exhibition, which is being opened on May 3 without a number of exhibits. The crisis is due to the Rangitikei, which is bringing sixty cases of exhibits, being two days late, arriving on April 14 on the eve of the Easter holidays, preventing unloading until April 19, only a fortnight before the Exhibition. The London and North-Eastern Railway is supporting an attempt to unload the exhibits on April 14 and will provide a special goods train gratis to rush the exhibits to London .whence they will go to Glasgow, arriving on Saturday next.
