THE RAILWAY DEFECTION.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
CHRISTCHURCH, Last Night
At a largely-attended meeting of railway drivers, firemen, and cleaners, held at the engine-shed to-day, the following resolution was carried unanimously:—"That there is absolutely, no chance of the members of the Engine-drivers', Firemen and Cleaners' Association breaking up their own union and going back to the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants; that this meeting indignantly protests against the unio.i dog-in-the-manger tactics of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants in endeavouring to influence members of Parliament to coerce the. engine drivers, firemen and cleaners into a union which is so bitterlv opposed to them." TIMARU, Last Night.
The Locomotive Drivers', Firemen and Cleaners' Association arc sending a resolution to the Railways Committee and the member for 'the district, protesting against'the resolution of the other branch, sent to the same persons, and asserting that the breach is widening, with no chance of re-union.
