WORK AND WAGES
THE REEFTON STRIKE. By Telegraph—Press Association. Reef ton, Friday. There is nothing new re the Labor trouble. Both sides are marking time, and the only work being done is the sinking of a shaft at the Energetic mine. A Greymouth Labor inspector is visiting the place to-day inquiring into the trouble. A meeting of miners endorsed the action of the local executive, otherwise there is nothing to report. PROSPECTIVE COAL SHORTAGE. Palmerston North, Last Night. Advices have been received by the distributors lor the coal companies that for the present persons having contracts for regular supplies must have their demands fulfilled before other orders are executed. The instructions apply also to the Gas Company. This action is taken, it is said, owing to the possibility of the shortage of miners on the West Coast, and a sympathetic strike with the Waihi strikers.
