SLAUGHTERMEN STRIKE.
TROUBLE AT OHRrSTCHURCH. By Telfuraph.—rress Amoclatlon. Cliristehurch, Last Night. The slaughtermen at the New Zealand Refrigerating Company's Islington works ceased work this morning. The trouble is due to the men refusing to pla»2 identification tickets on sheep killed and dressed by them. The management insisted on this duty being carried out, and butchers numbering between 4fl and 50 walked off the boards. There was trouble at other works this morning over the same matter, but it was amicably settled, and work was carried on. The use of the identification tags has been in abeyance during the period of the commandeer, and only lately lias been reverted to.
