MINERS REJECT GOVERNMENT'S PROPOSALS,

SITUATION NEVER BLACKER.”

LONDON, April 28. The railwaymen at Nottingham have been reinstated. This has averted he threatened strike of the Great Northerns. The coal strike situation was deverblacker in consequence on the miners' conference decision to-right "to enject the Government's proposals because they do not concede the fanda- mental principles of a national wage ocard and national pool" A resolu den to this effect was carried almost unanimously at a meeting at which the

Ketary reported Sir Robert Horne's final government offer. It is stated that the miners' delegates are returning to their respective districts where they will report upon the present offer of the Government.

OUTLOOK GLOOMY.

..

LONDON, April 28.

After a conference with Sir Robert Horne this morning, the miners"] representatives said the outlook was gloomy and a breakdown was possible as the Government had refused to increase the temporary subsidy.

LONDON, 'April 28.

Reuter's lobby correspondent states that the miners' decision has deeply disappointed the Government which will now take every measure to secure the country's maintenance. It is emphasised that the resolution rejecting the offer shows that the strike is being continued on a purely political issue.

A Cairo, message dated April 27 stated-A new political situation fraught with the most serious difficulties has arisen, owing to Zagloul Pasha challenging the Ministry by demanding the abolition of martial law and the censorship and that the leadership of the delegation to London be placed in hands. Zagioul Pasha, in a speech on April 25, asserted that his colla. beration with Adly Pasha, the Prime Minister, depended on the latter's acceptance of Zaglool Pasha's conditions. The resignation of the Ministry may possibly be imminent, which would involve the negotiations with Great Britain.]
