Only one other firm of coalworkers in the kingdom, the Staveley Coal and Iron Co, it is understood here, have such a scheme in operation. The Cannock Chase Co has this week decided to offer to the men 1000 £10 ordinary shares fully paid to any men who have been in the employ of the company for five years.' [1]
