WORK AND WAGES.
THE TIMARU TROUBLE. By Telegraph —Press Association. Timaru, Last Night. There is little fresh regarding the strike. To-day 96 men were at work loading the Zealandie, and worked till 12 to-night. They will finish to-morrow, and she will go to Napier. The work is said to have been done more expeditiously than by the regular hands.' Ten storemen in the Shaw-Savill wool store struck, refusing to handle the wool, saying that they would not touch stuff handled by other than unionists. Their places were filled without delay by surplus labor from the steamer and the U.S.S. Co. The Flora, which was due to-morrow morning to land merchandise and load produce, is not to call. A meeting of farmers, business men and all interested in the port has been convened by the president of the Farmers' Union for to-morrow afternoon to consider the situation. The president of the Waimate branch advertises an invitation to farmers in his district, advising them to help the next boat, and to send in their names.
