MINERS LEADER
PREDICTS END Of
COAL FIELD WAR
Settlement by Night With Re-
sumption of Production in
Few Days Forecast as Con-
ference Resumed.

LONDON. Oct. 27. (By the As
ISOLATED Press.)-A member of the
miners executive body informed the
conference of trades union delegates
here today that there was every
prospect of terms for a settlement of
the coal strike being reached tonight.
1t is reported the miners leaders
have accepted the government terms
and will submit them to a confer
ence of the miners delegates. The
mine owners also are said to have,
agreed to the government proposals.
This mornings newspapers contain
confident prediction that todaYs REF.
sumption of the conference wouldI
result in settlement and that the
miners would be at work again with
in a few days. Yesterdays adjourn
ment, it was said, was due~to the
necessity of consulting the mine
owners on some points of detail, but
as the owners were reported as
anxious to help in arriving at a So
luton strohg hopes were expressed
that the last difficulties would be
smoothed ay/today.
The terms which are reported to
have been virtually agreed upon yes
i
lie at the wish of the miners execu-
tive pending the submission of the
stipulations for ratification to the
pending conference of the miners
delegates. Should the delegates not
ratify the terms, another ballot of
the miners would be necessary, In
this case all the present hopeful pre-
dictions might he nullified and the
whole situation again be put into the
melting pot. but the present view is
that such a contingency Is improb-
able.
According to information gathered
in conference circles, the miners, un-
der the scheme virtually approved
yesterday, will receive the increase in
wages they demand as from Oct. !
until the end of December, by which
time IL is expected a national wage
board, which Is to be established. will
have devised permanent scheme.
The price of coal under the reported
settlement plan, is not to be increased
to domestic consumers, but the in
creased wages are to be met by the
revenue from the export trade, and,
according to some reports, the wage
scale is to rise and fall according to
the revenue from that trade. lntri-
cate calculations are said to be IN
volved in the arrangement, which is
pointed to as partly answerable TO
the prolonged discussions.
1t also is reported that under the
contemplated settlement the miners
executive has undertaken not TO re-
sort in future to direct action to Sc,
cure the naturalization Of the min
ers and likewise has agreed to CO.
operate cordially toward the success
of the new plan.
1t may be added that while the
majority of the morning newspapers
take hopeful view of the settlement
prospects doubts regarding the out
look are expressed in some quarters,
where, it is said. that when the nego-
tiatons were adjourned overnight,
the position was so critical that any
thing might happen.
