Resented.
AT Q-RIFS WITH POLICE.
(Received 12.30 p.m.)
DARWIN, this day,
Trouble has been experienced between the police and the miners at Marranboy, owing to the police seizing liquor for a Christmas meeting.
The miners carried a resolution that they would forcibly eject pne of the constables from the field unless an inquiry was held into his conduct.
The administrator has refused the inquiry until the ultimatum is withdrawn, stating that law would be upheld at all costs.
Meanwhile the field is seething with unrest.
