MEETING OF WATERMEN AND laoserasmaN.—A.
densely crowded meeting of free working watermea and
lightennen of the River Thames was held last night in
the large room of the Southwark Working Men's Club,
Broadwall. Blackfriars, for the purpose of eatablisbiog a
trade protection society, and of obtaining • reduction in
the hours of labour and the abolition of Sunday work. Mr.
Fairbairn was voted to the chair, and baying explained the
object of the meetir g read the rules of the proposed
society as drawn up by the committee, that relating to the
boars of labour and rate of wages stating—" That the sum
of 6e. Bd. be paid for a day's work, such day's work to be •
tide up and tide down, with the mooring of the
barge, all work beyond that to be paid for extra,
as overtime." Another rule stated that all disputes be re-
fined to a board of arbitrators, to consist of an equal num-
ber of masters and men. 'tire rules underwent mender-
able discussion, and were ultimately adopted with mine
verbal alterations. Several speeches were then made in fa-
• your of the reduction of the boon of labour, and especially
as to the necessity of doing away with Sunday work, both
of which it was maintained could be accomplished if the
men would rally round the society now estabbibed. The
oece‘aPy of making an application to parliament for an
amendment of the Waterman and Ligatermen's Act was
also strongly advocated.
STRIKE OF THE JOUREETWEN BARGEBUILDEEE.—
Nearly the whole of the journeymen bargebaildies em-
Ploys(' in 'boyars], on the benksof the Themes have struck
for an advance of wages. In the only part of last week
the employ.re were served with a notice to the affect that
at a genital meeting of the men it was resolved "that the
journeymen should discontinue work at the prawn% rate of
wages on sad after the 3rd of March." It is stated that
the men claim an extra 6d. per day, their wages being 6a.
for 10 hours, in consequence of the increased price of pro-
vident". The masters intimated their intention of Dot
yielding to the demand, and the men, true to the determi-
nation which they had come to, absented themselves
from work at the several yards yesterday morning, and bu-
siness was quite at a stand-stilL The committee of em-
ployers have advertised for hands front the country dis-
tricts, offering the same rate of wages es they have hitherto
been paying.
