COAL MINE DISPUTE.
SOUTH ISLAND TROUBLE. A LOCAL MATTER. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Dunedin, Last Night. The position in regard to the trouble at the Kaitangata mines is unchanged, and the mines are still idle. The union has appointed Messrs. A. Penman (president), Brad wood (secretary) and Ruffell as its representatives on the local disputes committee, and they hope to meet the companies* representatives in a few days to discuss the position, but the prospects of an ag. ement being arrived at by the conference are not promising. The step is merely a necessary formality in reaching the national disputes committee. The company is preparing for eventualities by putting in stoppings in all the lateral drives. Up to the present the miners are very orderly, and are confident of winning the point. There is no indication that the matter has been taken up by the federation.
