WORKING FERRY STEAMERS.
EMPLOYERS NOT DIVIDED. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.! CHRISTCHTJRCH, Tuesday. ■ The Christchurch manager for the Union Company, Mr. W. H. Price, stated this afternoon that a suggestion that there had been a split among the employers on account of the working of the ferry steamers was absolutely untrue. The position in connection with the ferry steamers was that all cargo that had been over-carried, and all that had accumulated at the port, was being cleared up to-day. After to-day only flour and perishable cargo would be accepted for the ferry steamers. It was necessary to employ extra gangs this morning in order to clear up the accumulated cargo.
The Kennedy and Wairau were loaded this afternoon. The Cygnet will load tq-morrow, and the John will most likely ahso be worked to-morrow. The Port Denison arrived this morning and anchored in the stream.
