THE CARGO WORK CONGRESS.
9 — WILL IT END TO-DAY? The delegates to tho waterside workeis" conference put in a long day's work on Saturday, but liavo not yet completed their labours, and will sit again to-day at 10 a.m.
A ruiyour was afloat on Saturday afternoon that the conference would conclude in the evening, but it proved groundless, Mr. C. Holds-worth, general manager of tho Union Company, and Mr. It. Semplc, organiser of the Federation cf Labour, both declined to say, on being interviewed, how far tiro negotiations had gone. A number of pooplo who are more or less in touch with the conference have hazarded the opinion, however, that the end is in sight, and that it will probably be reached to-day. To this may Ixs added that tho prevailing note is optimistic, and favours the idea that the Dominion agreement (Haired' by Hie conveners of the conference will be successfully formulated.
