THE SLAUGHTERING STRIKE.
AMICABLE PROPOSALS CEASE. VACANT, PLACES BEING FILLED. (By Tolegraph.—PrePß Association.! Auckland, March 9. To-day there were eight slaughtermen at work at Southdown, all. of them , nonunionists, who have applied for work in place of the members of the union now on strike. Yesterdny the two men,-who were taken on in the morning worked all day, and wont back with the larger gang to-day. While the new men are not doing the work as fast as the expert hands now on strike, they are handling sufficient stock to keep the works running with a much-diminished output. Two more applications for work were received to-day, and the men were duly engaged, and' it is expected that other men will be available when farmers have had time to send them along in response to the telegrams dispatched to them. No efforts are now being made, to bring about any,reconciliation between the company and the strikers with a view to the.latter resuming, work, as it is believed 'that a sufficient number of new hands will be obtained to till the strikers' places.
