Received Sept. 22, 7.25 p.m. - London, Sept. 21. After hearing Mr. Smillie's announcement that the. executive did not consider that the negotiations with the Government revealed any justification for a prevention of a strike, the miners' conference adjourned to enable the different sections.to discuss the situation. It is believed the miners' leaders are not unanimous in favor of a strike.

The conference declined to admit the deputation, but received the petition.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
