meeting Thursday afternoon, the de-
partment of social conditions having

ing vocal selection, being accompan-
led by Mrs. B. H. Harnly.
In the business session, which was
presided over by Mrs. W. S. Irwin,
vice-president, the election of a pres

resignation of Mrs. w. Edwards was
one of the most important features,
and Mrs. Anderson Allyn was selected
to head the club.
Another important matter was the
vote of the proposed amendment to
the charter, which gives the club the
authority to borrow money to pay for
the new club home. The amendment
was adopted, there being only eight
opposing votes.
The treasurer's report, read by Mrs.

is in the best financial condition of its
history The regular funds are flour
ishing and the special building fund

MURPHY DENIES HE
AND HEARST HAD TALK
Has Not Seen Amy Hearst
Representative, Either.

Charles Murphy was at his desk at
Tammany Hall yesterday. but he was
not talking about William Randolph
Hearst
"Its too early to talk about candi-
dates" he said wearily. as IL bored to
think that the hot weather politics had
started so soon.
This was in reply to question as
TO what chances he thought Mr.. Hearst
had of landing the nomination.
Mr.. Murphy denied that he and Mr..
Hearst had discussed the publishers
candidacy recently.
"It is not true" he declared en-
phatically. II have not seen Mr.. Hearst,
nor have / talked about his candidacy
with any OF his representatives"
Asked about the defiance of Hearst
issued by Tomas +. Foley, the veteran
leader, Mr. Murphy said he had not dis
cussed gubernatorial possibilities with
Foley or any other Of his leaders.
1T is too early to talk candidates"
asserted Mr. Murphy. The state con-
vention. which will nominate the state
ticket, does not meet until September
The Hearst supporters put out a num-
Der OF varying stories about the lilSeli-
hood of Tammany support for the pub
Usher in his campaign for the Gov
ernorship. 1t was reported in one of
these stories that Hearst and Murphy
had talked things over and reached an
agreement and in another that William
j. Conners. principal supporter of
Hearst. had talked with Murphy and
that he. too. had fixed everything.
Various Tammany leaders said. how
ever, that reports from upstate indi-
cate that Hearst has not been able to
obtain the support OF a single county
leader and that he has not been able
TO make any headway In these districts
at all Mr.. Conners, who began the
boom for Hearst after arriving from
Buffalo recently, was out OF the city
and the Hearst headquarters in the
Hotel McAipin were closed

Paris. May ID.
Three days Of unofficial conversations
with DIR. Andreas Hermes. German
Minister Of Finance. have caused feel
ing OF pessimism again to pervade Rep
aration Commission circles. While the
commission has taken no action as a
body. each member to whom the Her
mes report has been submitted. it was
learned to-day, promptly had given it as
his judgment that the latest German
proposals are quite unacceptable.
That is the reason DR.. Hermes tele-
graphed last night to Berlin for new
suggestions. The members of the Rep
arations Commission described DR..
Hermes's proposals as decidedly vague
on all points. seeming to indicate a
desire merely to keep up conversations
and contact with the commission pend
ing the arrival Of the bankers for their
conference here.
The Hermes proposals suggest an In
terror loan to cover an addition of
10000, 900. 900 marks to Germany's
budget demanded by the Preparations
Commission instead Of raising this 81
new taxes. But 1t Is held that this
would interfere with the eventual ex-
terror loan, a portion Of which would
go directly to the Reparations Commits
sion.
On the question of actual control Of
German finances Berlin SO far In willing
to allow merely an investigation Of Ger
many's books and friendly cooperation
Naturally these conversations are con-
centrating attention on the arrival OF
J. p. Morgan. and with him Otto H.
Kahn. The presence of the two bankers
on the same ship is causing considerable
confusion here. many getting the idea
that the two financiers are coming on
some joint mission. whereas Mr.. Kahn's
trip is purely voluntary. as he ap-
parently has not been invited to partici-
pate in the international meeting.
Nevertheless his simultaneous presence
here with Mr. Morgan Is taken as sig
nificant and is adding interest in the
American suggestions.
That the bankers committee will give
any encouragement to the international
loan idea unless decided cuts are made
In the total reparations now is deemed
improbable by members of the Repara-
tions Commission. who themselves ex-
pect that the bankers will make q flat
statement to this effect at the first
meeting.
One authority on the Preparations
Commission said that Germany now is
paying at the rate of 3,000, 100000 GOLD
marks yearly and that this seemed to
be the limit of her capacity. The ques-
tion Of an international loan seems to
turn not so much on the guarantees. such
as railroads and customs. that might be
put up, as on whether or not Germany
intends TO be good.
The bankers will not take the loan
otherwise, according to this authority.
"and 1t Is doubtful" he added, whether
Germany will ever be good and have
the will to pay the amount Of indebted
ness fixed at the present figures"
