Black flour dispute halts ship loading at Port Adelaide
About 100 tons of four consigned for shipment at Port Adelaide through W. Gibb & Sons faced a holdup as waterside workers refused to load the flour into the Caprera. Drivers and master carriers had carted flour to wharf sheds for 17 years, while the waterside workers claimed the work. A Trades and Labor Council decision ordered continuing carting by the unions, with a later pledge that waterside workers would handle future shipments, ending the embargo for now.

Exact Position on Wharf Labor Strikes Mentioned
A report discusses labor at wharves and potential actions if unions resisted work. It notes that if workers succeeded in moving work away from union members, busy shipping periods would force the four wharf laborers to finish their tasks at the wharves before any care could be stored in the sheds.
