Description

SIMS, Justice. This declaratory judgment action was instituted by the High Splint Coal Company against District No. 19, United Mine Workers of America, and certain individual miners, to obtain the construction of a contract between the parties, and to determine whether or not the company was authorized under the contract to make certain deductions from the miners' wages on account of slack and other debris and impurities being loaded with the coal. There is no controversy as to the amount of the deductions which total $12,654.40. The chancellor's judgment did not formally construe the contract but recites, 'the plaintiff has failed to show itself entitled to the relief sought, and that the defendants have shown themselves entitled to the relief they sought', and decreed that defendants recover of the plaintiff the amount of the deductions, $12,654.40. A reversal is asked because, first, the chancellor did not construe the contract and make a declaration of rights thereunder; second, a recovery of money was adjudged against plaintiff.
