SCARCITY OF SEAMEN.
HIGH WAGES DEMANDED. Press Association. AUCKLAND, Jan. 21. Shipowners on the West Coast are experiencing considerable difficulty in getting crews for their vessels, and the scow Hawk has been detained at Onehunga for several days on this account. The full complement, however, was secured yesterday, but not before one of the number had to be paid the exceptionally high rate of £8 a month for liis services.
