LONDON. Aug. -Notwithstanding
the settlement OF the dispute between
the South Wales miners and their em-

The ncgotators learned of the strike
resolution when boarding q train in
London for Cardifr. They deeply re-
GREETED and condemned the action Of the
miners. but expressed the belief that the
strike will not last more than day.
The Daily Nails correspondent at
cardin quoted one Of the miners
leaders. Stanton. as approving the settle
ment as a triumph for the men. as the
owners can well AFFORD to pay the extra
wages stanton then said to the cor
respondent
There has been a good deal Of pro-
German sentiment behind the agitation
and 1t is believed that some delegates
who are eager for the extreme measure
viii regret the settlement"
Stanton did not suggest that there
existed "A secret propaganda carried on
by German emissaries, but said that
the Independent Labor party was very
strong in the Welsh mine area and that
the miners take their notions from Keir
liardie's paper. the Pioneer. as well as
from the Labor Leader.
Large groups OF men have Joined the
strike which was called tonight. and
the number OF strikers Is continually in
creasing II Is expected that $4,000 men

back pay dating from July 90. instead
OF from August 81. AZ is stipulated in
to-day's compromise. The earlier date
