Up till a late -hour last night no wireless message had been received from the Moana, which was due from San Francisco, via Papr.eto and Rarotonga, to-day. The Moana will probably not show up until to-morrow. Until a little over three years ago tho system of engaging lahour for the Lyttelton waterfront ivas for each company to appoint its own men. then, however, a clerk acting on behalf of the variouf companies has engaged what labour ia required. Unfortunately the latter system has not proved as satisfactory either to the employers or the men, as was anticipated, and it has now been decided to revert to . the original system. The change will take place a" from to-day. THE WIMME-liA, FROM MELBOURNE. The Wimmera, from Melbourne direct, is to arrive this morning.
