AT AUCKLAND
OLD WATERSIDERS RETURNING
THE HUNTLY MINERS
AUCKLAND, Last Night.
There were ho new developments to-day in Auckland in connection with strike matters, so far a* the Auckland waterfront is concerned. Such work as is offering is being transacted with, satisfactory skill and expedition. A party of some sixty members of the old; Waterside Workers' Union presented themselves at the wharf to-day and asked for ' work. Their names were taken by the secretary of the new union, and they will be ballotted for in due~course. The members of the old union who have thrown in their lot -with the new organisation are estimated to exceed one hundred. The Huntly miners decided this morning not to accept the Taupiri Coal Mines, Ltd., offer to resume work on Thursday morning next on the terms of the old awaYd. 'The Huntly men asked whether the offer to resume, as in the beginning, included the sixteen men who had been dismissed. , They, further took up the attitude that the "strike was now a general strike, and that negotiations for its settlement in the whole or in part must be made to the United Federation of Labour ,_ to which tFe Huntly Union was affiliated. •
