Printers' Dispute.
(Per Press Association.) PAHIATUA, Nov. 27. Before the Arbitration Court Baillie and Co. were charged with a breach of the Wellington Typographical award by employing female compositors. Defendants claimed to toe working under the Canterbury award, which 'allowed female labour. They could not conceive it possible the Court would make it a criminal offence for females to work in one district and not in another. The Court imposed a fine of £5 and cost#. The Court stated provision would have been made for females if an application had been put in before the award was made.
