AUSTRALIAN TELEGRAMS.
Melboubne, November 9. The dispute between the squatters and Shearers Union in the "Warnambool distriot has assumed serious proportions. A state of terrorism prevails at Oaromut, where a party of 120 men are encamped within the township. The men are behaving in an orderly manner, but great uneasiness exists. Sbonts are posted at all the entrances to the various shearing grounds in the vicinity, in order to prevent other than Unionists from proceeding to the sheds. Several squatters are reported to have yielded to the demands of the Union.
