Kennedy, managing director of the Grey Valley Coal Company, to Mr Bishop, the mine manager of the same body : “ The late changes in the arrangements with the miners are making the weekly loss so serious that it is impossible to continue it. Consult the Miners’ Association when they could meet me to discuss the position. I will come down immediately. Ask the Association to consider the. matter in all its bearings, as a collapse would be ruinous to ali concerned, the district included.
