WATERSIDE STRIKE
MSN DEFY COMMITTEE.
(Australian Press Association.)' (By Cable—Press Assn—Copyright.)
MELBOURNE, October, 12.
The Watersiders’ Federation, at a mass meeting, refused to obey the Central Committee’s instruction to take out licenses and resume work. They will join the seamen’s mass meeting on Sunday.
ULIMAROA DELAYED.
SYDNEY, October 12.
The Ulimaroa’s departure for Wellington was delayed until six o’clock, owing to seamen not answering a call for three men. The ship, carrying 283 passengers and considerable cargo, was ready to sail at noon, but the vacancies in the crew caused a holdup.
The signing of crews for the steamers Corio and Makombo also caused delay, though it is anticipated that when the Seamen’s Union meeting ends there will be no difficulty in filling all of the places.
