They are willing to meet the coal owners further to discuss the question of the owners so desire. Meanwhile 160,000 men in South Wales, 13,000 in North Wales, 40,000 in Derbyshire, besides the miners in Nottinghamshire, Northumberland and Durham have tendered notices to terminate contracts in a fortnight, failing the concession of a minimum wage.
