THE STATE MINERS.
DIFFERENCES SETTLED. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. “After nearly a week in consultation at a round table between the State coal miners and officers of the department,” stated the Hon. G. J. Anderson (Minister for Mines) to a reporter today, “the assessors came to a decision, which, so far as I know, is satisfactory to both parties. Shifts on. ‘back’ Saturdays were agreed to as seven hours and six hours.” A number of coal miners in various parts of the country are reported to be dissatisfied with the Arbitration Court’s award of eight-hour shifts on ‘back’ Saturdays, but a reporter was given to understand to-day that there is a likelihood of an eventual agreement being arrived at between the miners and mine owners.
