AUSTRALIAN CABLES.
CANEFIELDERS' STRIKE. (Received 11.6 a.m.) BRISBANE, this day. Mr. Tudor (Minister for Trade and Customs) has arrived at Bundaberg in connection with the sugar strike. He°met the owners, who agreed that the men's demands were reasonable, bat they were unable to grant them until their own conditions improved and they received a higher price for the cane. They suggested that the price be regulated by the Government. Mr. Tudor was unable to see how they could regulate it, but would make inquiries. The Sugar Company was not in business for the good of its health, and was evidently making a comfortable profit.
