Tho meeting at which this decision was arrived at was largely attended, and the agreement which was come to between tho ship-owners and the seamen’s representatives appeared to bo entirely satisfactory to those present. After discussing the position for about an hour and a-half, the men agreed to sign on from 4 o’clock that afternoon.
