COMMONWEALTH LINE. SYDNEY, June 28. It is rumoured that there is a difference of opinion between the Executive of the Seamen’s Union and the Sydney’ branch, regarding the hold up of the Largs Bay, and that Mr. Walsh (President of the Union) does not consider the attitude of the branch to the Commonwealth Line politic, and is coming to Sydney’ to act as peacemaker. Colour is lent to this by the fact that Mr. Walsh will arrive at Sydney on Thursday. Mr. Hughes threatens to lay up all the Commonwealth vessels, unless the union officials agree to the management retaining control. He stales that the unions must choose between industrial crucifixion, in order to serve Mr Walsh’s purpose, and pander to 'iis insatiable vanity and ambition, or sweep him and his like neck and crop out of the union SAILERS IN DEMAND. MELBOURNE, June 27. Six sailing ships, loading for European ports, are causing oversea steamship owners’ concern, as being mainly foreign-owned and manned by seamen paid considerably less thrtn Australian and British rates, the vessels are loading cargoes at rates much below those fixed for steamers. Shippers are paying £lO,OOO freight to London, whereas under the rates fixed for steamer freights they would have to pay £16,000. The sailers are being rushed by shippers.
