AUCKLAND WATERSIDE WORKERS.
(rKESS ASSOCIATION TEI.EGBAM.) AUCKLAND, January 28. There are «Siw two organisations of workers represented on the wharves. One (tho Waterside Workers' Union), was formed of Arbitrationists during the recent strike, and is working under a duly registered agreement with the employers. The other (the Auckland Coal and Cargo Workers' Union), is said to include men who have been refused admittance to the first organisation, and who propose to anply to the Arbitration Court for an award. The Waterside Workers' Union has been using the watersiders' waitingroom as a place for its members to offer themselves for work, and the members of the Coal and Cargo Workers' Union asked the Harbour Bonrd to give them the same privilege. The Harbour Board considered the application in committee, and apparently deemed it inadvisable that members of the two unions should use the same premises. The Board resolved that, in tho meantime, temporary accommodation be provided at the King's Wharf for tho members of the Coal and Cargo Workers' Union, and that, when the Arbitration Court sits, tho Board oppose making the waiting-room the place, where labour is fo be engaged for either union.
