The incident has been accepted as q

BRITISH TAX THEIR GOAL.

Government Measure.
GENERAL STRIKE PROBABLE

Labor Members Intimate That Great
Struggle May Be Precipitated Between
Their Organization and Parliament.
Lambton Speaks In Behalf of Miners.
London, May There was unusual
of commg2 yesterday when the last
instanwSnt of the coal tax resolution
debat9 was opened by Sir Edward
Grey Liberal, who defined the meas
ur6 as harsh and oppressive. The
house adopted the coal tax by vote Of
1888 to 227.
Perhaps the most interesting feature
of the debate was the speech of Hon.
Frederick Lambton, who denounced
the government as ''pack of riotous
hounds after eve lamb by which
he referred to the coal industry. The
sleepy people who had come in to hear
the final stages of the debate blinked
vigorously as they heard the right of
miners to strike proclaimed by an aris-
tocrat, who declared that the miners
were ''as good as many man who has
won the Victoria cross.''
Another supporter of the govern
ment, John Wilson, bitterly objected to
the tax, bringing up the question of
American competition and contending
thar the duty would give the United
State chance to cut out British
coal.
What Vie Miners Federation will
do remainNto be seen. Judging from
the speechd of the labor members
during the las stages of the debate,
the Federation is quite likely to de-
clare a general strike. thus precipitat-
ing a struggle between organized la
Dor and parliament. Such collision,
as was said frequently during the dis
cussion. might prove ruinous to the
coal industry and highly injurious to
the country,
