MINES STILL IDLE,
WEST COAST POSITION.
DIVERSION OF ORDER.S,
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
GREYMOUTH, this day
No new developments are reported in the mining strike. All the union mines remain idle, but the co-operative mines continue working, and it ir> expected that the orders now' held by the big companies will be diverted to these. It was stated by the owners to-day that it appears the only solution of the trouble is for the mines to go on the co-operative system, as, with the overhead expenses and stoppages, the mines were not able to pay.
Almost all the co-operative mines on the West Coast supply household coal, and it is authoritatively stated that, by working extra time, bhey will be able to meet requirements.
