SEAMEN’S UNION.
THE RIVAL BODIES. WRIT FOR £2673 ISSUED. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) • WELLINGTON, Saturday. The causes of the differences in the Seamen’s Union, no public statement of which has yet been fully made, are likely to be more freely ventilated, as it was ascertained to-day that a writ has been issued on behalf of the Wellington Federated Seamen’s Industrial Union of Workers, the body re-regis-tered under the Industrial Association and Arbitration Act, plaintiffs, against Peter Fraser and Joseph William Trim (trustees of the Federated Seamen’s Union of New Zealand) and Fittes, Currie and Young (three officials of the Wellington Seamen’s Union), and the bank holding the funds of the Union (the Bank of Australia), defendants. An injunction was issued yesterday by Mr Justice Reed in the Supreme Court on the application of Mr E. P. Hay, restraining all defendants from dealing with money at the Bank pending a further order of the Court. The writ is for £2673, which plaintiffs alleged was recently transferred from their account to that of a new organisation.
