COLLIERY TROUBLE.
SERIOUS DEADLOCK.
EMPLOYERS AOHERE TO THEIR DECISION,
Preis Association—Electric Teleer«ph- Copyright. (Received Wednesday, at 9.10 a.m.) SYDNEY, Wednesday. : The northern colliery proprietors adhere to their decision not to grant a conference with the miners until the Burwood mine resumes.
The Employees' Federation declares that the stipulation has produced a serious deadlock, somewhat similar to tho position prior to the 1909 strike. The miners desire the re-establishment of a joint conciliation committee, from which the proprietors withdrew because forty-four stoppages occurred in eight months.
The President of the Colliery Employees' Federation points out that half these were due to the non-observ-ance of the awards of the committee.
The men are opposed to the setting up of a wages board to deal with the dispute.
