ing the operators and miners to Join I'm

terfere unduly, but having not only the
Interest OF the employees and employers
in mind It also has duty to safeguard
the interests OF the people who viii be
affected seriously by the suspension OF
coal mining" Secretary Davis stated.
81 cannot see why in the interests of
common sencc, the two sides to the coal
controversy cannot get together and adj
just their differences and save the cOun-
try from the costly results Of n strtke.'
The Secretary pointed to the agreement
of the anthracite workers and operators
who will mOet In New York March is to
discuss their differences. He said he
thought the bituminOus interests should
do likewise.
''Untll such meeting is held In ac-
cOrdance with the previous understanding
the two sides to the coal situation have
not discharged the obligations resting
upon Them" he said.

Ordinarily about $4,000 men have to

SPECIAL TRAIN To ST. AUGUSTINE,
Fla. March 9.-Grently refreshed by 4
sound nights sIumber- President Hard
ing awoke this morning to look out upon
familiar scenes as his special train IS
striking the coast Of South Carolina.
The train reached Savannah. Ga. about
Q o'clock and was to arrive at its destina-
ton at st. Augustine at . o'clock. Upon
arrival the President plans 10 go at once
to his hotel and probably will play
game Of golf this afternoon.
The most extraordinary precautions TO
guard the safety Of the President during
hlstrip have been taken by officials Of
the railway.
The President and Mrs. Harding have
thoroughly enjoyed every move of the
trip. Last Official act OF the President
upon leaving the White House was to
forward his Income tax return on his
81 larry. II Tas stated that Mr.. Hard
ing mailed a cheek for $4,000.
This trip of the Presidents is rather
one OF mystery. No plans have been
laid for more than forty eight hours. but
It is probable the party will board E. &.
McCIean's h0useboat Friday evening for
short cruising trips to the various golf
resorts IN the vicinity, returning TO St
Augustine for another visit before the
vacation ends.

Mrs. Obenchdin Tells
OlOn Story of Tragedy
Chicago DiU0rcee Tax es Stand in Kennedy
Death Hearing.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, March 9.-"Mrs
Obenchain, take the stand"
With these words, Jud Rush, chief
defense counsel, today brought the trial
of Madalynne Obenchain, pretty Chicago
divorcee, charged with the murder Of j.
BeIton Kennedy, to a dramatic climax.
Mrs. Obenchain, a triae nervous and
before one Of the largest crowds that
ever filled Los Angeles courtroom, took
the witness chair and began telling her
own complete story for the first time. a
few minutes before she went on the
stand Mrs. Obenchain predicted that her
ties timony would win her acquittal.
She was preceded on the stand by one
witness who testified briefly. Miss
Marilyn E. Smith told of Bolton Kennedy,
who wooed Mrs. Obenchain, showering
her with letters and gifts.
Refreshing her memory by referring to
her little red d-covered diary, Mrs. Oben-
chain related her ill-fated romance with
the man she is alleged to have cOnspired
to kill, J. Bolton Kennedy. She be-
gan her testimony by telling how she
broke with Kennedy and demanded he re-
turn to her the letters she had written
him.
After establishing the fact Mrs. Oben-
chain knew Kennedy in his lifetime, Rush
showed her an envelope. 1t was the en-
velope In which she returned to Kennedy

the letters he had written her and his
pictures when they separated in May,
1920.
On the envelope was written by Mrs.
Obenchain these words:
IF you really believe have been un-
truthful to you 1 am glad you gave up.
When faith is destroyed, the rest soon
leaves. l want my letters and pictures"
After she sent this note, Mrs. Oben-
chain testified, she never received her
letters from Kentucky and i'd net hear
from him or see him during the rest
Of the year 1920. She said she went to
Chicago and returned to Los Angeles
Jan. T. 1921. She said she did not notify
Kennedy she was coming here. Twice
she saw Kennedy on the street with
out speaking to him.
Jan. IA, she testified, she telephoned
TO him. She said she asked him to re-
turn her letters and he demanded she
see him.
II told him it wasn't necessary we
should see each other and he should
give them TO my friends and he should

Contest.

Coal miners were fighting an uphill
battle today to assure victory in their
strike threatened for April l. Off
GERS of the United Mine Workers
here feel that such assurance would
go far toward averting the suspen-
sion.
Going into the most critical period
their organization has ever faced,
they were working along three differ
ent lines in an effort to brighten the
unions future.
1. To suppress insurrectiOn In the
United Mine Workers and put up an
unbrOken line In their impending
strike.
2. To swing public sentiment def
nitely behind them. and
3. To induce mine owners either d.
rectly or indirectly through Govern
mcnt Intervention to enter a wage
conference before the existing agree
ment expires March 81.
EFFORT TO SWING
ILLINOIS IN LINE.
The main efforts were towards win
ming the Illinois mlners-the largest dis
trict in the union-in line with the ad-
ministraton Of President John L. Lewie
and TO prevent negotiation Of q separate
State wage agreement there.
Union chiefs feel that separate State
agreements would strike at the very heart
Of their organization and would enable
