THE MINERS' DISPUTE.
(Continued from Page 2.)
ALLEGATIONS OF TERRORISM.
RETURN VISIT TO WAIHI.
Mr Lucas mentioned that certain Union witnesses were withdrawn at the request of the Board in the interest :of conciliation. Mr Montgomery asked for an mdi'- < cation from the Board as to whether it was requisite to call evidence rebutting the allegation of terrorism, already disproved by the evidence. Mr Alison said that the evidence had not substantiated the ajlegation of. terrorism. Mr Drnmm: Had the Union no* dropped certain witnesses at the request of the Board the charge of terrorism would have been proved. The Board, after conferring, decided that Messrs Drumm and Morgan's allegations of terrorism were intended to apply to the Waihi Company only, also that the employers would proceed with the case as regards Coromandel, the Board to adjourn to Paeroa, thence to Waihi, where the Union had first called witnesses. The question of the reign of terrorism at Waihi would then be considered, when the employers continued their case.
The owners objected to this.
