History

MINERS' WAGES. - BALLARAT EAST MINES. - BALLARAT, Friday.-The directors of the New Normanby, North Woah Hawp, and Last Chance mines at Ballarat East to- day considered the position arising out of the increase in miners' wages. The three companies have been on the call list for some time, and the extra wages will add to the expenditure. It was decided to have as much work as possible done on contract, while tributes will be made available. Managers will be directed to use economy in expenditure. Work will be resumed on Tuesday, but several days will elapse before the water is out of the bottom level at the New Normanby and the North Woah Hawp.
