MACDONALD MINERS
(Pre.ss Assn.) HAMILTON, May 5. When only three or four of the 70 to 80 MacDonald mine workers who live in Huntly arrived to catch the special bus to take them to the meeting arranged to be held at the minehead this morning, the meeting had to be adjourned to take place in Huntly later in the afternoon. The Glen Afton mine was idle to-day, as the men wished to hear addresses by the delegates from Wellington. They travelled to Huntly for an afternoon meeting on a special train from the mine. It is considered likely that the executive council will have to address two meetings, one in Huntly and one at' MacDonald, to reach all the miners concerned in the dispute.
