INDIA BUYING COAL.
FEAR OF MINERS' STIIKE. ORDERS TO WALES AND AFRICA. A. and N.Z. LONDON. Dec. 10. Urgent orders have been given by the Government of India for 250,000 tons of Welsh and Monmouth coal, and similar orders have been given in South Africa and elsewhere. This action is attributed to apprehensions regarding a big coal strike in India owing to extremists' agitation in the coalfields and the session of the Trade Union Congress at Jharia, in the heart of the Bengal and Bihar coalfields, which has occasioned much unrest among the ooalworkerg.
