Trouble has arisen between the Union Company and the Australian Institute of Marine Engineers oyer the Company’s action in deducting half a day’s" pay for Saturday afternoon. The engine-room staff of the Niagara at noon to-day gave 24 hours’ notice. The men claim that the Coinmany is not justified in deducting the pay, since the New Zealand-Sydney agreement distinctly stipulates that men shall not work on Saturday afternoon unless it is sailing day. It is understood that negotiations have commenced. The Niagara is due to sail on Monday for Vancouver via Auckland.
