Haulage Hands’ Wages.

Prompt Settlement of Thrybergh Hall Pit Dispute.

A stoppage, on Tuesday, at the Thrybergh Hall Colliery, Kilnhurst, was a sequel to a  wages dispute originally affecting 12 haulage hands of the Parkgate seam of the pit, and other underground youths came out in sympathy.

It was expected to be followed  by a resumption of work this morning, thanks to the terms of settlement agreed yesterday at a joint conference of representatives of the Yorkshire Miners’ Association and the proprietors of the colliery, Messrs. Stewart and Lloyd’s.
