STRIKE OF BAKERS.

. _ — _ — . — _ [PRESS ASSOCIATION.] NAPIER, last night. Mr Culver, Inspector of Factories and Awards, accompanied by Mi* : Golins, his successor, had .an interview this afternoon with the bakers' carters who .are' on strike at Hastings. Tlie men were advised to re— siune Work, and if -they Had not received any back pay to put in dawns for it. ;■'■'■■• 4'^HASTINGS* to-dayv! All the drivers who struck .fester* day, with the exception of one /man, returned to their respective carts ibis morning. One of the master bakers agreed to pay the wages demanded, but i;he other bakers declined to eonr sider the men's demands. In the case of the man who was not taken back,' the employer states that he had; decided to dispense with that driver's services, prior to the strike. It is probably due to Factory Inspector Culver's interview with the men yesterday that the strike terminated. •
