The Dispute at Denaby Main Colliery

The top men employed at the Denaby Main Colliery have held a meeting, since coming out on strike on Saturday, and expressed regret that any illegal action should have taken place, agreeing that work should be resumed on Monday, and that the notices should be handed in the usual way in case the grievance was not meanwhile amicably settled.

It is hoped that work may proceed amicably, several years are now lapsed since there was any serious dispute between the company and the workmen.
