SHEARERS IDLE.
NEW SOUTH WALES STRIKE. By.Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received July 18, 3.5 p.m. Sydney, July 18. The first blow in the shearing trouble has been struck. The shearers on the Midkin station, Moree, ceased work following on the refusal of their demand for increased Tates. A meeting of shearers in Sydney resolved to demand a weekly wage for all classes employed in connection with shearing; also a ten per cent increase in wages for every week, or part of a week. Sheds are kept idle by pastoralists declining to concede the demands.—Aus.N.Z. Cable Aasn.
