The British Admiralty has taken over
all the reserve supplies of coal, follow
ing the reports from Cardiff, Wales, that
the miners conference by vote of lsO
to 113, decided not to accept the recon-

work.
Walter Runciman, President OF the
Board of Trade, today telegraphed to
the conference of miners delegates in
session at Cardiff that he was prepared
to meet the delegates in London tomor-
row evening.
The presumption is that the purpose
of the meeting is to resume negotiations
looking to settlement of the dispute.
More than 100000 men already have
laid down their tools, thereby shutting
down virtually all the mines in the
Welsh coal fields, which supply steam
ing coal for the British navy.

Two strikes of far-reaching import
ance, and another. threatened, were of
unusual interest to organized labor this
week. The one nearest home, and there
fore of the most interest, was that of
the employees of the Remington Arms
Company, at Bridgeport, Conn. The
other, and of almost equal interest to
union labor, was the walk-out of 100000
miners in the Wales coal fields.
The threatened strike is among the
workmen of the Krupp gun works at
Essen. Germany.
Another strike of wide Importance
that is now on is that of the pants wax
ers in New York. This is on the eve
Of settlement, an armistice having been
declared on the basis that the strike will
be confined, pending negotiations, to the
2l eco workers now out.
JurisdictionaI Fight.
The strike at the Remington Arms
works was caused primarily by a juris-
,iCtional dispute among labor unions.
Al arms and ammunition factories in
the United States are likely to be drawn
into the local controversy. A dispatch
from Bridgeport Friday says:
THE strike at the giant new plant
of tie local arms company, which is to
make arms for the allies and for the
United States military, developed today
from Tie proportions OF family labor

which may paralyze Bridgeport. All
