CRITICAL STAGE IN
STRIKE NEGOTIATIONS
English Government Making Little
Headway in the Settlement
of Labor Difficulties

LONDON, Feb. 26.-On the eve OF
the resumption of a conference be-
tween Premier Asquith and other
cabinet ministers and the miners rep
resentatives which marks the most
forts to avert a general strike, the
nation is kept actually in the dark
as to what has been accomplished
toward securing peace since the ne
gctiations of Feb. %.
The miners then informed the
premier they We're powerless to agree
to anything until authorization had
been obtained from the miners fed
Grafton which meets here tomorrow
as consequence subsequent conferences
have been held with the owners
alone.
Rumors of an Agreement
1t was announced tonight the
miners federation had agreed to
recommend to conference. The pre-
mier's invitation was that a committee
be appointed from the federation to
consider the whole controversy with
the cabinet.
The strike actually began today
when a few thousand miners from
the Derbyshire district ceased work
Tomorrow several thousand more no.
tees expire while Wednesday 100000
miners may desert the pit. Unless the
owners agree to concede the minimum
wage scale a national strike would
seem inevitable. There is a feeling
abroad, however that the government
persuaded the owners to yield for a
few months at least.
