He was continually interrupted as

draft reply to the last German re-

was impossible Of fulfillment, Herr
Cuno said it appeared England had

HAS LITTLE EFFECT

London. Aug. 9.-Chancellor Cuno's
speech in the sReichstag yesterday
seemingly has had little effect in
England where the dominant opinion
expressed by those in authority is
that the epic Of the German govern
mont utterances is approaching the
vanishing point so far as the actual
effects are concerned.
The cabinet met again this morn
ing and continued its efforts to for
mulate an answer TO the French and
Belgian note which contained vir-
tual rejection of the British draft
note to Germany.

POINGARE REBUFFS BERLIN
Conducts Direct Negotiations in the
Ruhr-lmportant Plans Discussed
by British imperial Confer

lean Federation Of
Labor.
BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD

/" A NY man who would make pre-,
n dictions for Germany beyond
tomorrow is mad" cables a Berlin cor
respondent Events in that distracted
country have been moving rapidly to-
ward a climax which Chancellor Strese-
mann fears and frankly says may be
catastrophe unless immediate measures
are taken and they prove successful.
Even before this reaches the reader
the situation may me entirely changed,
for the better or, if possible, for the
worse. Only the happenings of last
week can be recorded.
The Socialists yielded to Strese-
mann's insistence on the Authorization
law which will permit legislation by
the cabinet without reference to parlia-
ment, and the chancellor thereupon
formed a new cabinet to operate as a
directorate, in which are represented
the Socialist, Democratic, Center and
Peoples parties. The monarchists
and Communists are excluded. On
Tuesday he submitted the new govern
ment's policies to the reichstag and
was given an overwhelming vote of
confidence, only the Nationalists, Com
muniSts and Bavarian Volksnartel op-
posing. The chancellor declared he
was not seeking negotiations with
France alone but only with all the al
lies; that he had no intention of abol-
lshing private property but intended
that the great properties should take
their share of the financial burdens of
the state; and that Germany stood back
of her signature on the Versailles
treaty. Stresemann severely criticized
the Cuno governments refusal to aban-
don the passive resistance on the ad-
vice of England three months ago when
1t still was possible to obtain conces-
sions from France. He declared hard
words and threats in protest against
Frances action in the Ruhr were use
less.
Then came forward SHINES, the
Krupps, Thyssen and the other indus
trial magnates with an attack on the
cabinet and a list of demands on
Stresemann which included an eight
and one-half hour day in the coal
mines, ten hours in the mills and the
abandonment of the coal tax. Until
these measures are granted, they said,
they could not bring the cost Of coal
down to the world market price at the
pithead. Their other demands amount
ed to the revocation Of all privileges
won by labor during the last twenty
years. In reply the chancellor sent
Minister of the Interior Solmann into
the reichstag to announce that these
demands of the coal and steel mag
pates for measures to fill their pock-
cts would not be considered by the
government. The country was en-
ragged by the stand of the industrial
barons. The press branded them as
traitors and the Communists intro
duced a bill demanding their trial on
charges of high treason.
