N.S.W. COAL STRIKE
NO CHANGE IN SITUATION. FULL TIME AT ROTHBURY. (owrno prbss association—at electric TELEGRAPH —copyright.) (Received February 13th, 9.25 p.m.) SYDNEY, February 13. The coal situation is unchanged. Work is proceeding at several of the northern unassociated pits, and coal is being carted away in lorries without hindrance. The ltothbury colliery is working full time, and the police are having no trouble with idle miners. The feeling is prevalent that the miners are now waiting for the decision of the High Court on the validity of the last Beeby award. If this goes against them, they will return to work in a body. Mr John Brown, owner of the Richmond main pit, South Maitland, one of the largest and best collieries, has decided to call for men next week, preferablv former employees. If they decline, he will appeal for volunteers from practical miners.
