THE INDRAVELLI. CREW SIGNED ON.
The Indravelli difficulty is settled and the ship will leave for the East via Newcastle, New South Wales, this evening or to-morrow. There were nearly 200 men anxious to get away, and they crowded the shipping office to the fullest capacity. The articles signed are for colonial rates of pay, i.e., £10 a month for donkeyman, £7 for seamen and trimmers, and £9 for firemen and greasers. The men are to be paid 17 days pay on discharge at any port in the China Sea, and their passage paid back to Australia k or New Zealand as they may elect. Preference was shown for the former crew, which originally signed on in Wellington.
