SHIP HELD UP
WAGE DEMANDS BY CREW. (By Telegraph-—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, June 25. The Union Steam Ship Company’s chartered motor-ship Cape Horn, which was to have sailed from Lyttelton on Saturday for Dunedin, is held up because of the absence of 11 members of the crew. It is understood that the men have absented themselves, pending decision on a claim, which they have made to be placed on New Zealand rates of pay and conditions. A conference between representatives of the Seamen’s Union and Union Company officials will be held on Monday.
