THE WAIHI STRIKE.
NEW TACTICS. By Telegraph—Press Association. Waihi, Thursday. The day shift corning off work yesterday afternoon were treated by the assemblage of unemployed with what had every appearance of respect. For the most part the men raised their hats as the brakeß passed along. The womenfolk also adopted an air of marked deference to the workers, in strange contrast to the aggressive and insulting demeanor of the past few weeks. This morning the men going to work received similar respectful attention, but no hats were doffed. This omission was probably due to the heavy rain. The public are curious as to the marked change in tactics, and are wondering what it means.
