THE NEW ZEALAND TRADE.
AUCKLAND, Nov. 14. A member, of the firm of J. J. Craig and Co. stated to a reporter to-day that there are twenty vessels engaged in the coal trade between. Auckland and Newcastle, all of which will be laid up. As far as coal cargoes are concerned, there will be no rise in sailing freights from Auckland, but .difficulty will be experienced in securing return cargo. With vessels diverted,to other trades there might be a difficulty in obtaining coal tonnage at the end of the strike.
