Sydney. LABOUR DISTURBANCES.
The shearers who are in camp at Louth, a town on the river Darling, 65 miles below Bourke, captured a number of tree laborers. The police however, eventually persuaded them to release the men. Shearers bombarded a steamer which was conveying free men to Dunlop station with bricks and stones. The Unionists at Wilcannia also captured 100 free men as they landed, and now hold them captive in their camp.
