WELSH COLLIERS IDLE. CABINET'S CONCILIATION. (Received 1 p.m.! LONDON, January 25. N bile the railway peace negotiations are apparently at a deadlock, a number of National Union men who joined the strikers arc returning to work in various places, notably at Hull, where three hundred decided to resume after a five hours' meeting, the voting in favour of resumption being 122 to 37. Some members of the Locomotive Society are also said to be resuming. A further hopeful sign is that Mr. Ramsay Mac Donald instructed the Ministry of Labour to inquire into the strike and report to Cabinet. Meanwhile practically all tbe collieries in South Wales are now idle, nnd all the tinplate and steel works arc closing down.—(Reuter.)
