DECIMAL COINAGE. INDUSTRIAL SECESSIONS By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Capetown, Nov. 4. A message from Pretoria states that the Government is contemplating legislation converting th? coinage to the decimal system. The British sovereign is to remain the -unit of calculation. Advices from Johannesburg state that the Building Workers* Union, following the footsteps of the shop assistants and others, has withdrawn from the South African Industrial Federation. It is probable the engineers will be the next to leave. The secessions are regarded as an indication that the federation is breaking up.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
