Little hope to avoid nationwide coal strike as talks resume
Negotiations on a new coal contract between industry and union bargainers continue with little optimism to avert a strike. The United Mine Workers contract for 130,000 miners expires at midnight, with many not expected to work beyond tonight. Union funds for health and pension renewals are at issue, and ratification by members will follow any agreement, potentially sparking a strike lasting days to weeks.
