A lsrge open-air meeting of Northumbrian pitmen wee
held neer Cramlingtoo on Moeda', in order to consider
*tat 'UPI thread be takes Is reference, to the strike at
CTataliogton Colliery. Nearly all the collieries in the
district were "laid la" in order that the men might at-
teed the meeting. It was estimated that 3,000 men ware
present. This anfeythaate strke, as oar naders are
aware tee continued for nearly three months. During
thh period about 500 persons have been thrown out of
employment. The origin of the strike appears to he, that
the men employed at the Cramlington and Shaakend
liaise mandated they were pad lege for their labour than
the workmen of the other collieries is the district. In
addition to this, it was urged by the men that the coed la
tartan places of the pit was extremely difficult to work.
aed they therefore asked for an intone on the old scale of
Drift.. This the owners refused, on the ground that 1
the market prize of cal would not admit of the advance
asked. Hence the present protracted strike, which has
ben provocative of great lose both to the employers end em-
ployed. During the struggle the tan have conducted
themselves le • most praiseworthy manner, and
have repeatedly evinced their desire to bring the
dispute to an issue. Depatatioas from the men have
