London, April 16. "Yesterday was the heaviest defeat that has befallen the Labour movement within the memory of man." In those words the Daily Herald to-day sums up the result of the Railwaymen's and Transport Workers' dramatic refusal to give eleventh hour support to the miners by permitting a general strike. The events of Thura- day and Friday, the almost accidental discussion of certain members of Parliament with the coal owners and workers, the declaration of Mr. Hodges (the miners' leuder), that they were willing to consider a provisional settlement of the wages question, the midnight interview fresh conference, the failure of the miners to appear and the fual breakaway of the Allied union on this ground, all this must not be taken as representing the to-day that the root cause of the defeat was the lack of solidarity whole of the inner truth of the situation. The Heraid itself admits
in the whole movement, in organisation and in understanding and
sympathy. It is beyond question that the leaders of the Railwaymen and Transport Workers were rightly uncertain of the response of the rank and tile to their strike summons.
Except in one or two districts of Scotland there was complete unemployment. With this temper prevailing the strike must in any orderliness and general depression at the prospect of involuntary
schisms in the Railwaymen's and other unions. As things have case have been halfhearted and unsuccessful, resulting in internal turned out these unions retain their Individual solidarity but the Triple Alliance is shattered for the time being beyond hope of reconstruction.
The Miners delegate conference is fixed for 22nd April. Mean time there is to be no resumption of coal mining
cover
The miners want, according to Mr. Hadges, a permanent wages system, operating nationally and uniformly, so as to discrepancies between the productive and unproductive coalfields. Consequently they demand a National Board to apportion wages in a national pool whereby the profits of the richer miners will assist the poorer,
No attempt has been made to-day to heal the breach between the miners and their Triple Alliance colleagues. Each had taken its decisions without consulting the others,
The miners have decided, pending the delegate conference on 22nd April, to return home, where, in the words of an official state- ment, they will discuss the whole of the facts with their own district members preparatory to returning to London to draw up a report for submission to Friday's gathering.
The Railwaymen's and Transport Workers Executives also met subsequently and issued a statement that the cancellation of the strike was due to lack of solidarity which manifested itself yester- day morning. They express regret at the necessity for the step.
The Westminister Güzelte states that the Miners' Executive rejected Mr. Lloyd George's invitation to a conference with the coal owners yesterday morning by a majority of one. Thereupon Mr. Hodges resigned hut his resignation was not accepted.

Simla, April 16.
Severe fighting in the Wana and Mahsud areas is reported following the reappearance of the notorious Afghan adventurer Abdur Razak who has organised the hostile Waziris and Mahsuds Most of the fighting has been at Roghakot which was captured on 6th April by the 41st Dogras. They were, however, subsequently driven back. The enemy casualties were 19 killed and 38 wounded while ours were 8 killed and 41 wounded. Boghakot was occupied on the 8th. Further sharp fighting occurred on the 10th when three hundred Mabsuds attacked a company of the 20th Punjabis whose losses were 26 killed and 24 wounded including one British officer killed. Fresh British operations have commenced.
