Premier Lloyd George Sees Possibility of Strike Settlement in Proposed New Move.

London. June 25. .tBy Associated Press. )-The request of the coal miners representatives for new meeting with the government and coal mine owners with the object of settling the coal strike brought a quick response today from Premier Lloyd George. He in- vited the owners and miners to a joint conference on Monday.
 The newspapers today are optimistic over the possibility of an immediate settlement of the strike. which now has been in progress nearly three months
 The miners decision to seek re opening of negotiations was influenced. it was declared by failure to obtain financial support from other trade unions and the reluctance of other labor organizations to join with the miners for industrial action to enforce their mutual demands.
