JOURNALISTS’ AWARD.

TROUBLE IN AUSTRALIA. By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright. MELBOURNE, June 27. The Commonwealth Industrial Registrar to-day received a telegram from the president of the Australian Journalists’ Association, in Sydney, stating that a conference of the association and the newspaper proprietors had proved fruitless, and that the proprietors of a Brisbane paper, besides declining to participate in the conference, had given notice to terminate the existing agreement, and that a serious industrial dispute was imminent. Ho therefore asked the registrar to summon a compulsory conference before Mr. Justice Higgins and’ the Arbitration Court.
