COAL PRORTERS' STRIKE OFF.
There arc signs of an early collapse of the coal strike. Many malcontents are resuming. Free labourers, attracted by wages averaging 35s to 45s per week, are maintaining an almost normal supply. The Coal Porters' Union is ill-supplied with funds. The etrikers at Clerkenwcll accepted a penny por ton advance, objecting to penalise good employers. The strikers will resume to-morrotr. The South Londou Coal Company .and all tlio co-operative societies conceded a penny advance, and other firms have followed their example.
