DELAY TO SHIPPING
TROUBLE AT WELLINGTON LABOUR CALL UNANSWERED [BY TBUMBAFH—PRESS ASSOCIATION] WELLINGTON. Thursday Few vessels were able to work cargo on the Wellington waterfro:at to-day owing to trouble with the waterside workers. There was again no response by the men when a call was made to work the motor-ship Port Hobart and as rf consequence no new labour was engaged for any vessels in port except the ferry steamers and the coastal motor-ship Inaha. An. exception was made for the Inaha, as her cargo consisted oif butter from Pa tea for the liner Akaroa., The Port Hobart discharged cargo by her ow:i crew and she left at 10 p.m. for Lyttelton and Dunedin. The Port Hobart, the preference fhip, having left, a jjenera] call for labour will be made tomorrow, but it is doubtful whether it will be answered.
