Creating a serious Situation. All
Welsh Coal Mines Shut Down.
Early Settlement Expected.
(Special to the Guardian.)
LONDON, July 15.-Out of the vari-
ous manifestations of unrest in the
British labour field shown since the
outbreak of war, developed to-day
what may prove one of the most
serious strikes iii the history of the
country. More than 150.000 have laitl
down their tools, thereby shutting
down virtually all the mines in the
Welsh coal fields. which supply steatn-
ing coal for the British navy. The
British Government, using for the first
time the authority granted by the so-
oalled munitions measures, ruled that
the miners must not strike. n Royal
proclamation to this effect having
been issued yesterday. The miners'
answer to ttits proclamation was to go
on strike. Tiiougli subject to a daily
fine of $15 or imprisonment for strik-
ing, and though urged by their leaders
to allow their demands for higher pay
to be arbitrated, the miners threw
aside all advice anti lo-da_y refused to
take up their picks, thus not only
stopping the mines, but leaving idle
the mine railways anti some ships eu-
gaged in coal transport.
