THE SLAUGHTERMEN
POSITION IN CANTERBURY. (By Telegraph— Press Association.) r CHRISTCHURO'H, Last Night. Tire present position with regard to the trouble with the slaughtermen is improving, and it is reported that at all tho works in Canterbury more butchers started this morning, and that applications are coming in still from men who are anxious to take lip the work. Some of tho men who have applied and whose (services have been accepted, have not yet started work as in some instances they are at present in the country and in other instances havo t-o givo a week's notice to their present employers. So far the works arc not fully manned, and it is not expected that the full output will be obtained for soino time, and in tho meantime it is considered inadvisable for the farmers to ru.sh their stock into tho market, since where the.r<i were large numbers to come forward, it would be impossible to deal with them expeditiously. 'I lie applications 'being jriecoived] for slaughterman's work ar 0 corning from all parts of the district and judging by the present indications, the number at present maiming tho boards will be greatly augmented during the next few days.
