Following the seamen’s rejection of the owners’ offer the conference has been abandoned. Meantime the strikers’ numbers are growing smaller and only hy intimidation are the men being kept on strike. MELHORNE. Novemlier 25. The Australian seamen’s stop-work meeting decided to discontinue the payment of the levy to assist the British seamen, at an early date, as the strike has already collapsed at two ports and is practically ended. The efforts of the strikers to embroil the crow of the steamer Demosthenes in the strike proved abortive. The firemen decided to remain loyal and take the ship to sea to-day. This wins one of the strikers’ last hopes of continuing the dispute which is expected shortly to collapse.
