SLAUGHTERMEN’S DISPUTE,

Negotiations are still in progress. WORKERS IN CONFERENCE. (Received 8.0 a.m.) London, December 30. . The South Wales Miners’ Federation, since the strike conference with the North Eastern railway men, pass ed a resolution that the recent strike settlement was absolutely unjust, and requested executives of the different societies to call a conference.
