THE MATSON LINERS
NO SYDNEY CARGO
FIJI ALSO IN QUESTION
(By Telegraph.) (Special to "The Evening Post.") AUCKLAND, This Day. Not only will no passengers be carried on the Matson liners between Auckland and Sydney, but the restriction will also apply to cargo between the two ports. ' ' *. The Auckland agents, Messrs. Henderson and Maefarlane, Ltd., have not had their instructions amplified, but it is understood that the vessels of the line will not be in a position to handle cargo from Fiji to Auckland because of an intimation by the waterside workers that they will- not handle it. The boycott is said to be a phase of a movement instituted several months ago by the seamen and waterside workers against foreign vessels. Negotiations. are still in progress about the whole question.
