Chicago, August 12.-With Harold F. Mccormick married to Mme. Gan na Walska and en soute to Switzer- land on his honeymoon. and with Miss Mathilde Mccormick, his IT, year-old daughter. already In Swift zerland, where it is reported she will shortly marry Max Oser, elderly rid ing master, Chicago turned today to rumors of another budding romance in the Mccormick family.
 Rumors which have been current for months that Mrs. Edith Rockefel- Ter Mccormick, divorced wife of the former president of the International Harvester company and herself the daughter of John D. Rockefeller. ST., will marry Edward Kremm. 2S-year- old Swiss architect and landscape gardener, have been revived as a re- suit of the Mccormick Walska nup- tials in Paris.
 While society circles have gossiped over the reported romance of the oil kings daughter and the young Swiss architect. and the newspapers have been filled with rumors, Mrs. McCor- mick herself has declined to be inter- viewed.
 Has Nothing to Say
 Mrs. Mccormick" her secretary told an Associated Press reporter to- day, will have nothing to say for the present"
 MT. Kremm came to America with Mrs. McCormick's party last fall when she returned from eight years residence in Switzerland. Since then he has occupied himself with remod- cling her Lake Forest country home, which she purchased from MT.

English Would Cut Off One third of Reparations-Ne- gotiations at London
 DeadIocked
By Associated Press

London, August 12.-The French delegation to the conference on Ger man affairs was amazed to learn to- day that the British goevrnment proposes and insists on reduction of the German reparations payments to about one-third the amounts fixed by the London schedule of payments of May, 1921-that is, cancel alto gether the annual cash payments of 2,000,00O gold marks, and to leave only the 26 per cent assessment on German exports.
 Premier Lloyd Georges proposal reads:
 Subject to acceptance by the Ger man government of these guaran- tees, it will be for the repara tions commission to grant a moratorium in respect to all cash payments re- maining due from Germany, up to December 31, 1922, and. further, the commission shall as soon as possible fix the annual payments in cash in respect to all treaty charges for the succeeding period at such an amount not exceeding 26 per cent of the value of German exports as may be found proper with view to the early Notation of loan by the German government, the major portion of which shall be devoted to the payment of reparations.'
 Negotiations at StandstfII
 M Poincare had doubts regard ing the Interpretation to be placed on this article, and 1t was one of the points referred by the premiers to the committee of experts. Only at this afternoons meeting of the committee did NJ. de Lasteyrie. French finance minister, obtain ex- plantations from the British mem bers that it was designed to reduce the total cash payments to a sum amounting to 26 per cent of the value of German exports. but leav- ing the possibility still of payments in kind. He Is understood to have informed the committee there was not chance of the French govern ment accepting such an idea, or se- riously considering it.
 Consequently. the negotiations be- tween the French and British are at a standstll.
 The Italian delegation shares the French view completely; the Bel gians less so

Mrs. Edith Mccormick X May
 Also Take Suiss Husband

which she is presenting to Cook county.
 Friends of the family are waiting to see the reaction of Miss Muriel Mccormick, eldest daughter of ths former harvester head, to her fath- CTS second marriage. When report CTS broke the news to her she ex- claimed. "Oh, Lord" Later she made no effort to conceal her antipathy. Like her younger sister. Mathilde. and her brother. Fowler, she chooses to live with her father after the sep aration of her parents. During the opera season last winter she was a regular occupant of her fathers box. across the horseshoe from that of her mother. and although she frequently visited Miss Mary Gardens box ad joining her mothers, she never called on the latter.
 Since the departure of MT. McCor- mick and Miss Mathilde for Europe, Miss Muriel has made her home at the old Cyrus Mccormick homestead, where her father took up his resi- dence when Mrs. Edith Rockefeller Mccormick returned from her long absence abroad.
 If Mrs. Mccormick does decide to remarry. the ceremony cannot take place until a year has elapsed f. om the time of her divorce, December .. of last year. The Illinois law does not permit the remar-iage of di- vorced persons within ono rear If they continue to reside in this state.
 Judges and lawyers pointed out yesterday that if MT. Mccormick and Mrs. Walska wish to return to Illin- ois in the future they wiln havo to have another ceremony performed next year. as yesterdays action in Paris is not recognized e lagnl in this state.

Mr. White wrote letter to Governor Kilby just preceding the primary, in which he related an alleged conver- sation which he had with Felix i.. Smith and B. O. Byrd. who were said to be representatives of the Alabama Power company. regarding alleged activities on the part of Smith and Byrd in the interest of the re- election of Mir. Cooper and MT. Gail lard. Governor Iiiby published the letter. together with one from Mayer Aldridge of Montgomery substantial ing the statement of Mir. White.
 Mir. Cooper and MT. Gaillard im- mcdiately afterward declared that they did not know Smith and Byrd and charged that Mir. White had proved disloyai to members of the commission. The resolution dismlssi ing MT. White said that he had been guilty of disloyalty toward them, thus proving himself un- worthy of further trust"
 The associate comm ssioners also adopted motion canceling and an nulling contract for the employ ment of Mir. White for period of one year from January 1, 1922, and declaring that the contract was en- tered into by the president of the commission and without the approval or Knowledge of the commission. The dismissal of Mir. White will bring on long contest probably in the courts.
 Holds Contract Binding
 President Patterson issued a state ment Saturday afternoon in which he insisted that the contract was bind ing and that the commission em- ployed MT. White at salary of s3,G00 year. showing that the intent of the commission was to have the employ mept continue for one year. Mir Patterson also went into details re- garding various events leading up to the primary election, among them being his action in summarily dis missing J. W.

Thursday it will vote without further debate on all pending individual amendments.

PROTEST AGAINST
 ARMED GUARDS IN
 RA|LROAD'S SHOPS
Kennamer and HartsfieId Take Charge of Situation. Engineers and Bremen
 Remain on Duty

Protesting against the use oi armed guards and troops to preserve order during the railroad strike several score of conductors, flagmer and yardmen employed locally by the St. Louis and San Francisco rail road walked out at 5 o'clock yester day afternoon. In the absence ol any orders from national headquar ters, the engineers and firemen re mained on duty, it is stated.
 A large crowd Of striking shopmen and other spectators were present at 5 o'clock at the entrance of the Frisco yards at Ninth avenue and Nineteenth street and considerable excite men prevailed as the trainmen dropped their work nnd made for the main gate. Besides spe- ciaI agents and national guards, Thomas J. Kennnmer, United States marshal, and Sheriff J. c. HartsfieId arrived on the scene and were keeping tab on the situation.
 The absence of trainmen from the service was paraly zing transportation last night. The through mail and passenger train which usually leaves Bir- mingham for Tupelo, Memphis and points north at I1n5 o'clock each night had not gone at 1880 o'clock this morning. Although the engineers are not striking it was stated that the regular engineer in care of the train could not be found, and an ef- fort was being made to find substitute.
 The protest by trnfnmcn against use of guards and troops to patrol railroad prop crty gives the trninmen an op- portunity to express their sym pathy for the shopmen who have been on n strike for sey- eral weeks.
 None of the trainmen for -he other railroads running into Birmingham had struck last night. The engineers and fire men of the Frisco were expect- ing orders 1t is stated which would direct them to strike also.

Washington, August 12.-The fed eral district attorney in southern California was ordered today by At torney General Daugherty to investi- gate whether the abandonment of trains on the Santa Fe railroad was the result of conspiracy by those operating them, or others to inter- fere with interstate commerce and the handling of the mails" Action by the department of justice fol- lowed investigation of press reports of the tieing up of trains.
