INDUSTRIAL UNREST.
SYDNEY BUTCHERS’ STRIKE. (By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) (United Press Association.) Sydney, November 22. The mutton slaughtermen’s strike is off. A number of strikers are working, but not for the Carcase Butchers’ Association, whose members insisted on the men killing and dressing nine sheep hourly. THE GAS WORKERS. The position of the threatened gas strike is unaltered. The ballot papers are locked up in a secret place. The gas employees and the Council met, but refused to divulge what occurred. The meeting was with reference to the Gas Bill, about which the Assembly and the Legislative Council could not agree. The secretary declares, that the union is not now interested in the Bill’s fate. “All our trouble,” lie says, “is how to got an extra shilling daily.”
