THE COAL STRIKE.
London, May 2,
the coal situation remained unchanged during the week end.. A number of district associations have shown up uncompromisingly as regards acceptance of the Government's offer, but fuller meetings have not yet met.
It is widely pointed out that this is the first great occasion when the miners have been refused to express an opinion by ballot, and the miners' delegates appear adamant that a ballot shall not be taken. Nevertheless there is no ray of hope of the miners deserting the federation, and how the deadlock shall ultimately be broken down, from where and how will come the new healing move to bring the parties together, seems most obscure and mest remote. A long strike, sums up feelings generally, with possibilities of ap- palling complications and happenings over lurking in the background. Mr. Cramp, speaking at Leeds, declared: Unless things alter I candidly think we shall drift into a state of war within a fortnight.
