LONDON, 4th July.
Mr. A. J. Cook, secretary of the Miners' Federation, speaking at Widnes, said that the strike would be won or lost in the next fortnight. They would have to stop the railwaymen handling imported coal. A settlement could not be discussed while the Eight Hours Bill remained. If the men accepted longer hours, they would have to get a new secretary.
