Received 22, 7.30 p.m. Sydney, November 22. The position ol the threatened gas strike is unaltered. The ballot papers are locked up in a secret place. The gas employees and the Council met, but refused to divuige what occurred. The meeting was with reference to the Gas Bill, about which the Assembly and the Legislative Council could not agree.
