THE SUGAR STRIKE.
(Received August 10, 10.15 a.m.)
SYDNEY, August 10: It is thought that the waterside workers regard their pledge not. to handle cargo touched by non-Union-ists as sacred. The shipping companies would welcome a way out of the difficulty. If they refuse sugar, they will offend the merchants; if they accept cargoes of sugar, their ships may be laid up. The secretary of the Labour Council declares that if it is forced upon them there will be a bigger strike than in 1890.
