ANOTHER STAY-IN.
MINERS AT NEWCASTLE. ENOUGH FOOD FOR SIN DAYS. (United Press Association—Copyright.) SYDNEY, July 29. Another stay-in strike by coal-miners is reported from Newcastle, where 187 miners and wheelers employed at the John Darling Colliery, owned by the Broken Hill Proprietary, Ltd., at Belmont, are .remaining below ground. Their reason is the refusal of the management to reinstate a wheeler dismissed for allegedly striking a, pit pony on the head with a wooden sprag. The strikers on this occasion are better organised. They have sufficient food •for six days, *most of it having been taken into the mine surreptitiously by the last shift, who also left their 6wn crib behind when leaving. Meanwhile no attempt will be made to win coal in this colliery.
COMPULSORY CONFERENCE CALLED. (Received This Day, 9.5 a.m.) SYDNEY, This Day. A compulsory conference on Monday, before the Industrial Commission will deal with the dispute in the coal industry of New South Wales.
