AUCKLAND BUTCHERS' STRIKE
SMALL BARRIERS TO A SETTLEMENT. (BI TELEGRAPH.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.) AUCKLAND, sth December. The final settlement of the butchers' strike is still lacking, though the acceptance by master butchers of the ternis of the Wellington award as regards wages, and their undertaking to agree to make provision for a week's annual holiday on pay when the current Auckland award expires next October, seem to remove the last obstacle to a resumption of work by the butchers and their sympathetic export slaughtermen. It is hoped that the meeting of the Butchers' Union, which will be held tomorrow morning, will lead to the raising of the small barriers which still block the way, and that the result will be a general resumption of work in the butohers' shops at the beginning of next week.
