THREATENED STRIKE.
DISAFFECTED MINERS. | i EFFORTS AT SETTLEMENT. London, August 26. Mr. Walter Runciman, Mr. Lloyd George, and Mr. Arthur Henderson, who were appointed to deal with the colliery trouble, have written to the South Wales coal miners, declining to receive another deputation, and pointing out that both parties must accept the afrard as final. The miners' leaders have summoned a meeting for Friday. The outlook is grave. At three of the South Wales collieries the men stopped work, owing to disaffection over Mr. Walter Runciman's award in the recent dispute, and over 2000 men were out at Llanhilleth, near Newport, but all are now resuming. Mr. Runciman, Mr. Lloyd George, and Mr. Arthur Henderson are considering the points over which there is still a difference of opinion. MONMOUTHSHIRE DECISION. (Received August 27. 10.20 p.m.) London, August 27. Seven thousand Monmouthshire miners have decided to strike.
