GENERAL CABLES.
(United Press Association—By Elestrle Telegraph—Copyright.) MELBOURNE, March 36. Brigadier General Griffiths, who recently inquired into the native disorders at Rabaul, New 7 Guinea, exonerates the heads of the police and missionaries. His report, declares that I the original cause of the trouble was the talk of foreign sailors with the natives causing strife, also the fears of the sailors, who organised the strike. • There was not a tittle of evidence to support the statement that the cause of the strife was much deeper seated or more involved.
