Last night

The action for libel, G. G. Stead v. the Directors of the Otago Daily Times and Witness Company (limited), was tried today at the R.M. Court, before Mr Mellish and Mr Olivier. Mr. Packman appeared for the complainant, and Mr Garrick for Mr Fenwick, i he only defendant who was present. His Worship, after a long argument between counsel, on the question of issuing warrants for the attendance of the remaining Directors, decided to adjouin to Monday, after hearing what evidence could be taken. An instance of cheap labour was shown yesterday in the Amberley Court. Two able-bodied and skilled blacksmiths were summoned for a debt of £10, and pleaded they were working merely for food and whatever the master pleased to allow them. ■■■•■-.■
