Trouble on ilte Wellington Waterfront
WATERSIDERS REFUSE CALL Per Press Association. WELLINGTON', Last Nigh ft Very few vessels were able to work cargo "on the Wellington waterfront today 0 owing to trouble with the waterside rs. There was again no response by the men when a call was made to work the motor-ship Port Hobart and as a consequence no new labour was engaged for any of the vessels in port except the ferry steamers and the coastal' motor-ship Inalia. The Inaha was made an exception as her cargo consisted of butter from Patea for the liner Akaroa. The Port Hobart was discharged by her own crew and she left at 10 p.m. for Lyttelton and Dunedin. Now the Port Hobart, the preference ship, has left, a general call for labour will be made to-morrow, but it is doubtful whether it will be answered.
