ENGLAND'S BIG STRIKE.


The Prepisition OF the Owners TO Re-
duce Wages 20 per Cent Is the Cause
OF the Strike.
LONDON, July 24.-Nothing but thu sur
render Of the mine owners will prevent
great strike of the coal miners OF England.
The whole Miners Federation Is involved
In the impending trouble. The ramifics-
tions Of the Federation extend, roughly
described, over the midland counties, York
shire and Lancashire. Most OF the mem
bers quit work this morning. The rest
will follow as soon as the notices OF re-
duction Of their wages mature
The question in dispute is one Of wages
solely. Since 1888 the wages Of the miners
in the territory indicated above have been
advanced 80 per cent. The owners now
propose reduction of % per cent.
The object of the strikers therefore will
be 70 maintain themselves In better position
than other English miners. In this fact lies
the reason for the lukewarmness OF the
Durham and Northumberland miners for
the cause OF the strikers.
The chairman of the Coal Owners Fed
Grafton says in defense of its course toward
the miners that the decrease Of business
since the beginning of this year Is unprece-
dented in the history OF the coal trade, and
that consequently the owners must reduce
wages or mine coal ut loss. The miners
answer that the standard of wages in 1888,
toward which the owners are trying to
force them, was fixed at the starvation
point and that the present wages are the
lowest ones from which the men can live
and support their families.
The prospects of the success of the strikers
are small. The owners are almost indiffer-
ent In the matter Of suspending work.
They have mined coal for many months
with little or no profit, and they have ac-
cumulated enormous stocks with which TO
meet the demand for many weeks
