PRESIDENTS 'SAWARD
FORMS COAL SCALE
Both Operators and Miners
Agree on Terms as Basis
of New Contract.

The final award made by President
wilson's coal commission in the con-
troversy between the coal miners and
operators will constitute a new con-
tract between the miners and the op'
orators.
This was decided upon today by tho
commission and was agreed to by
both the operators and miners. A re-
quest for such a decision was made
by the operators.
The operators today informed the
commission they would not agree to
any price fixing arrangement after
the expiration of the Lever act.
They stated that they had been ad-
vised by attorneys that they could not
enter into any agreement which would
fix prices after the expiration of. the
Lever act and intimated that the com.
mission does not have such power.
The original demands of the bitumi-
nous coal miners for a 90 per cent
increase IN wages, six-hour working
day and Ave days a week, were re-
stated by John l.. Lewis, acting presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers, be-
fore the Presidents Coal Comm issi lon
today. This action took place i'm
mediately after an agreement had
been reached between the comm ssion
the operators and miners that the
final award would constitute a new
wage contract.

UNIFORM DIVORCE
LAW ADVOCATED
Rev. William Sheafe, Of Brook
Iyn, Urges Congress to Stand

Uniform divorce and marriage laws
for the United States were advocated
today before the House Judiciary
Committee by the Rev. William
Sheafe. rector of Christ Church,
Brooklyn, and n delegation.
In order to overcome the objection
of States rights, Mr.. Sheafe advo.
Gated favorable action on the amend
ment to the Constitution proposed by
Congressman Randall of California
which provides that:
congress shall have power to es-
tablish and enforce by appropriate
Legislation uniform laws as to mar
rfage and divorce. Provided, that
every state may by law exclude as 10
its citizens duly domiciled therein
any or all causes for absolute divorce
In such laws mentioned"
Under such constitutional amend.
ment. said Mr.. Sheafe, Congress could
definite grounds for absolute divorce,
but the States would retain the power
to reject any or all OF the grounds
and even, as in South Carolina at this
time, refuse TO grant divorces>
There Is an alarming increase in
divorces" said DR.. Sheafe. "due to
defects in the marriage and divorce
laws"

The conference completed

refused the Serbian request
that the Croatians be recog-

Nurse Gives Testimony.
The main evidence on which the
coroner's jury returned verdict ac-
cusing DR.. Freudenberg OF the mur-
der, was given by Mrs. Minnie Bal
lard, n nurse of Fond Du Lac, Wis.
In a deposition she said:
MRS. Freudenberg told us she be
Iieved the doctor was responsible for
her mothers death, and talked about
il constantly. She was very angry
with him, and said to him In my pres
ence: If you did anything to finish
my mother, you better get her well
and do II damn quick.
Since the accusation was made by
the coroners jury. however, Mrs.
Freudenberg has stood with her hus-
band and said she would spend all
the half-million dollar estate left by
her mother, II necessary, to clear him.
when Freudenberg was arrested
Attorney Paul asked that the prelim-
mary hearing be held up until jan
uary 90. He said today If Freuden-
berg Is retained in Jail until that
time IL may serve to break any influ-
ence which he may have held over his
wife.
The authorities today turned their
attention to determining the cause
for the deaths of other members OF
the doctors wife's family which have
occurred since he married into IT.
Due to the cold weather and the
frozen ground, IL may not be possible
to exhume the body OF Alfred DUFF
