ARBITRATION COURT.
[by telegraph.—press ASSOCIATION*.] Dunedin, Tuesday. . At the Arbitration Court, Sir. Justice Chapman, speaking in reference to the Christchureh telegram regarding the case of the Tinsmith Workers v Crompton, said the message was somewhat misleading. As a matter of fact, there was no award or case, only an industrial agreement. It was dismissed, because the men not being parties to it were not bound by it. Had there been an award they would have been bound. During the present visit of the Court it has • heard four industrial disputes, twelve compensation claims, and 67 applications for enforcement of awards. Although the business is not completed, the members leave for Timaru and Christchurch to-, morrow, cases having been fixed there previously.
