THE FEELING IN CHRISTCHURCH. Christchubch, August 13.
The refusal of Messrs Whitcombe and Tombs to accept arbitration has had the effect of reviving the apprehensions as to the possible consequences. It has also had the effect of embittering the feeling of antagonism to the firm which the labour party generally entertain. The conclusion to which the latest phase of the trouble leads — viz., that it should not be in the power of a disputant in trade matters to refuse to submit to arbitration has been drawn by many persons. The opinion is pretty freely expressed amongst, men who have to do with mercantile concerns that the decision of last night's meeting of the firm's shareholders represents the feelings and sympathies , of the bulk of the mercantile community here. .
