STRIKE LEADERS' ATTITUDE.
CONFIDENCE ALLEGED. (By Tel«cr»uh.—Press AsßOoiatloa-i Auckland, November 11. The feeling among the various unions now out on striko is said to be one of tho greatest confidence, or at. least one of great determination. Tho Buggcs•tion that tho influx of ontsi-do labour (through. the nowly-rogistered union) would make the position. taken up by tlio strikers an untenable one is scouted by prominent Labour officials, "Wo are all in this," said one, "and w« will sink or swim together." Meantime administrative details of the striko are being attended to by various, committees sot up for tlio purpose. The Central Striko Committee has. apparently established a workable sort of discipline, and the announcement that the men on strike aro advised to keep away from Lower Queon Street has evidently been obeyed, Necessary permission has been obtained for tho use of Victoria Park by the men oil strike.*
and an entertainment committee has been appointed to make arrangements tnat will keep time from hanging too heavily on tho hands of those who have no occupation. It is stated by the Striko Committee that thoy asked lor tho uso of ilin ground in order to have somewhere for the. unionists to go ill iiirthevaiK'o of tho warning that they should not congregate about tlie watcrlront. They further undertook to he responsible" for the good behaviour and orderly conduct of the unionists who
would, use tlie ground. They had rooted objections to the presence of special constables, and suggested that the presence, of one i or two uniformed police would ba ample to meet the circumstances. This morning a deputation from the Central Strike Committee waited upon the magistrates to urge that the hotels be kept closed during tho whole period of tho strike. This is an expression of an urgent desiro of the great majority of strikers, and will no doubt.bo given due consideration.
