from his seat at the table and re-

which came down a rain-spout three

remarked:

Geneva, July 1.-The German
delegates to the Spa conference will
be instructed to insist on important
notifications of the peace treaty
and. in case of refusal. to invite
the allies to occupy and administer
Germany themselves. Such is the
plan adopted at a meeting of the
new cabinet in Berlin. according to
information received here In diplo-
matte quarters.
: The principal notifications the
German statesmen decided to de-
mand are:
First-Upper Silesia to remain
German.
Second-The strength of the
reichswehr to be left at 100000.
Third-Assessment of Germany's
total war indemnities at an amount
not exceeding $4,000. .ooo.o 900 marks

government is determined to pre-
vent at all costs 1t has authorized
its representatives at Spa to declare
that IL this rich coal country be
awarded to Poland 1t must decline
all further responsibility.
Reports received here from Berlin
demonstrate that this recrudescence

ulated by tho Republican platform

'strue as sbsolute reputation of the

When the convention adjourned
this noon a slight effort was made
TO secure a ballot while awaiting
the platform committee report. It
was defeated on a viva voce vote

It. This was commonly taken as a
sign of lack of confidence on the
part Of the McAdoo forces as IL they
had had the two-thirds necessary to

enough to force nominations under

WATCH
DAVISCHANCES
Ambassador and Col. House
Refuse to Comment on
Convention Proceedings.
BY w. ORION TEwsoN.
(washington Herald-Cross Atlantic
Service. Special Cable Dispatch.)

London. July John w. Davis,
American Ambassador to the British
court, whose name was placed be-
fore the Democratic national con-
vention today as a candidate for the
Presidential nomination. and Col
House. who had much to do with the
second nomination and election Of
President Wilson, were interested
readers of all bulletins from San
Francisco today. but both refused
to comment on the situation or the
possibility that the convention might
switch to the President as a thiro
time candidate.
The one thing that impressed both
was the tremendous strength Of the
Wilson support that the cables re-
ported. Ambassador Davis received
several cables during the day re-
garding his chances, and close
friends here said that the sup
porters were advising him that he
seemed to be the strongest of the
dark horses should the convention
deadlock on the leading candidates
His selection would be a popular
one in England.
"I don't want to be mixed up IN
the convention deliberations in any
way" was Col. Houses only COM
ment for publication on the situa-
ton.
w. N. Coleman, a New York at
torney, who is staying at the Cla-
ridge, where Col. House is regis
cred, and who is a friend of the
colonel, suggests that the latter
