ENGLISH MINERS
 SEEM SATISFIED
Taking Less Interest in Bal lot to End Strike Than
 to Begin It

London, March 31.-The miners are talk end the coal strike than they did in the ballot which began it. Probably this Is because the result is a foregone con cluson. In many districts only about half the men have voted. This indif- ference also probably accounts for the fact that Northumberland, Lancashire and some other districts are voting against a resumption only the irrecon- ciliables taking the trouble to vote. How ever, the aggregate voting is largely for a return to work and indications are that many men will have taken Up their tools again before the final result of the polling is declared. In not a few districts the men have already begun to reopen the roads and prepare the mines for new start at the earliest moment Sev- eral collieries in Warwickshire have been re-opened and probably 10000 men will be working tomorrow.
 As the crisis now is practically over, the King, who has up to the present de- clned to leave London, has decided to carry out his original plans to spend Easter at Sandringham with the Queen and. royal family. He probably will re- main there until April 23.
