THE MINING INDUSTRY.
A STATEMENT DENIED. By Cable—Press Association—Oopyright. Sydney, January 3. The leaders of the Newcastle miners deny Mr. Brown's statements regarding delegates. Mr. Watson, president of the Colliery Employees' Federation, declares that the fact is the leaders of the federation hare very often staved off disasters in the district and restrained the miners from taking action which would have been fully justified.
He added that an understanding between the men and the proprietors was almost completed tor the appointment of a joint committee to settle disputes as they arose, and endeavoring by peaceful negotiations to secure happier relations than had existed for many years past. He was hopeful this year would see the end of the hostility between the proprietors and men and a happy and peaceful relationship established.
