THE COAL OUTLOOK.
WINTER SHORTAGE POSSIBLE. THREAT TO REDUCE SUPPLY. By Telegraph.— Press Association. Wellington, Last Night The situation in the coal industry was unchanged during tHe holidays, but it is reported the miners are threatening now to reduce the output further. Mr. Massey has been in communication both with the miners and the owners. The miners demand another conference and the owners, it is understood, consider such a conference tinHiecessary in view of the full and open discussion which took place last year, but they are willing to meet the miners' delegates again on certain conditions. If the dispute is not settled in the near future the people of New Zealand are likely to suffer a very acute shortage of coal nest winter. Accumulation of stocks under present conditions is scarcely possible, and most of the large consumers of coal are living hand to mouth at the present time.
