SLAUGHTERMEN'S PAY.
THE CONFLICTING UNIONS. K CITATION AiND AN AGREEMENT. The frozen meat companies in theWellington district were cited on Monday morning l>y the old union or slaughtermen to appear before the Conciliation Commissioner on April 7. It will be interesting to note wh»t the .result of the conciliation proccedings will bo. The new union, the members of which are the men employed to take the places of the strikers, have already signed up an agreement with th© compiinios, whx'h agreement has been duly registered. The law does not prevent any award being made supplementary to an industrial agreement, however, and theirs is still the possibility, how remote or otherwise, that the Court will make an award. For the present the companies have no other course but to appoint assessors to represent them on the Conciliation Council, - but it seems very probable that those delegates will simply refuse to consider the old umon's demands, in view of the fact that they have already an agreement with the men working for them.
