(By Telegraph.—Press Association). WELLINGTON, November 29. In connection with the coal miners' strike in Australia a conference is to be held in Wellington to-night between the Hons. Jas. Allen and W. D. S. Mac Donald and representatives o? the coal mine owners, New Zealand Miners' Federation, shipping companies, and Waterside Workers' Federation, with reference to the shipment of coal for Australia. It is not anticipated there will be any trouble regarding coal for Ni'W Zealand troopships, but the miners will have to be perfectly satisfied that it is for that purpose only. It is understood the miners will absolutely refuse a> handle any other coal being shipped to Australia, or anything being done that is likely to jeopardise the position of the miners on strike there.
