ANTI-HADOO MEN PLAN TO RETAIN TWO-THIRDS RULE
Smith Forces Would Post pOne The Change
 Until 1928

NEW YORK, June Hear that abrogation of the rule requiring a two- thirds vote of the Democratic national convention to nominate presidential candidate would rebound to the advan- tage of William Gibbs McAdoo, the anti-McAdoo groups are planning a stiff battle to keep the rule on the books.
 Under other conditions there would undoubtedly be less interest in the rule, but with the present layout of the Democratic groups many outside the McAdoo camp believe that it will aid them when the convention gets under mays ssss <, .,.s-s9
 Causes Anxiety
 Threats of an attempt to substitute majority rule have caused anxiety, and the packers of Al Smith are hope fully looking for a way out of any such contest, and the suggestion has been raised by Smith men that the rule be retained this year, but that the con- vention agree that majority rule pre- vail in 1928.
 David l.. Rockwell, campaign mana ger for McAdoo, declared in telegram received here from Chicago Sunday tAAdl &o<s uclcSdleS IFOm tlS SOuJHeFu states were lined up behind McAdoo.
 Claims Strength
 Adoption of the unit rule by the Mississippi state convention means that Mississippi's 20 votes will be cast for McAdoO," he wired Florida and Louisiana, which have yet to act, will send McAdoo delegations ., New York. Eighteen of the 20 delegates elected in Mississippi are dyed-in-the-wool Me Adoo men, and with the unit rule the other two will be drawn into line.
 ''ln the south McAdoo has swept eight states: Georgia, 28; Kentucky, 26; Tennessee, 24; Oklahoma, 20; i; South Carolina. IS; Texas, 40; Mis- sissippi, 20. These POO votes will be increased by Florida's 12 and Louisi- anas 20, so that McAdoo's first ballot strength from the south will be 232.
 '''Virginia's 24 votes will come to Me Adoo after complimentary ballot for Senator Glass, and Arkansas IS votes will be cast for McAdoo after Senator Robinson has been complimented."

ChaunceIIor Seibel In Serious Condition After Attack


 VIENNA, June 1.-IDy ;ile Asso- ciated Press. )-The Austrian chancel- Tor, Ognaz Seipel, was shot and se riously wounded while alighting from a train here today The attack on him
 Dr. Ignaz Seipel, who has been chan cellor of Austria since May, 1922, is one of the outstanding figures in the European political and economic situa- tiOn. Born in 1876, he entered the priesthood in 1899 and served the church four years. Then he became teacher of religion in a fashionable girls school at Vienna and later pro- essor of moral theology at the Univers- ity of Vienna.
 Just before the collapse of the em- pire he took the post of minister of public welfare in the Lammasch cab inet. This pleaced him in the front of political leaders and after the revolu tion, whereby the social democrats came into power, Dr. Seipel applied his energies to strengthen the clerical party.
 In 1922 the celricals and Pan-Ger- mans formed a coalition, with the for nation of a first parliamentary gov ernment since the revloution, with Dr. Seipel in command.
 His great work as chancellor con sisted of obtaining a loan through the League of Nations and in bringing this to a successful issue, the chancellor displayed an order of statesmanship far in advance of that shown by the men directing the destinies of the other de- feated powers, since the application of the loan has lifted Austria out of the acute crisis in its economic affairs.

NEW YORK, June Try and buy drink of liquor near Madison Square Garden during the democratic cOnven- tion.
 Such, in effect, is the def of officers in charge of arrangements for the big meeting.
 Because of rumors throughout the west that there would be a free flow of into1icants in and around the con- vention halls, a clause has been inserted into every concession contract stipulat- ing that the prohibition law shall be strictly enforced.
 Each concessiOnaire must put up a bond, to be forfeited in case he or any of his employees become too broad- minded in the variety of beverage they sell. The bonds forfeited would be much higher than any profits the con- cessionaires might hope to make.

 In View Of Brother
 The fatal crash occurred in full view of Stuart's brother and youngest son, and three other occupants of an auto mobile which had crossed the track only few seconds before the ill-fated car was hit by the fast passenger train. The occupants of the first car. daZed by their own narrow escape, sought to warn the second car of the impending danger, but did not have sufficient time before the train crashed into the car.
 The car was torn into bits and the occupants were hurled high into the air. Little Ronnelle Hillarl, still con scious when picked up, was placed on the train and hurried to Atlanta. The bodies of the five victims were also carried to Atlanta.
 Members of the two families riding in the two cars, had spent the week end with Mrs. Stuart's sister, near Zebulon, and were returning to their homes, planning to drive to Forsyth for the day where J. w. Stuart, a brother of the dead man, resided.
 The passenger train was in charge of Conductor J. w. Strickland and Engineer H. w. Bradley.

By JOHN O'BRIEN

(By Leased Wire to Age-Herald.l
 Paris, June 1.-Premier Poincare has resigned office and as the result of a determined left wing attack on President Millerand, it is expect ed that Millerand will quit by the middle of the week. The radical groups joined in re- pudiating Millerand Sunday follow ing Poincare's formal resignation as the result of his defeat Tn the elections.
 It is now believed that Edouard Herriot, left wing leader, will form a cabinet by Wednesday, and that Millerand will then hand in his res ignation to be communicated to the new chamber.
 In this event the senate and the chamber would meet to elect a new president in a joint session of the national congress at Versailles at the el4d of the month.
 PainIeve Mentioned
 NJ. Doumergue president of the senate, and Paul Painleve, who held the pre- miership for q short time during the war and who las been mentioned as president of the new chamber. are now discussed as presidential possibilities.
 On the other hand it is possible that Herriot may inform Millerand that he cannot accept the task of forming a new cabinet. In that case the presl- dent faces the alternative of resigning immediately or offering the premiership to ex-Premier Briand or NJ. Doumergue, president of the senate, both of whom will refuse.
 It is reported that Millerand is think ing of offering the post of premier to General Maginot, former war minister, who, to judge from a speech made at Bar Le Due Sunday. would place the pGOlem of Frances security against any German military menace at the head of his program.
 Still another possibility is the re- turn of Poincare with a more radical cabinet.
 These were the outstanding develop ments of day of sensa tions in which the new French chamber, dominated by the radicals, entered its career in a none too quiet session.
 After final cabinet council at the Elysee palace Sunday morning. Poin- care handed Millerand letter contain ing a collective resignation of the cab met Millerand thanked him, and asked Poincare to continue to carry on routine matters until a new cabinet. was formed
 Attack Opens
 Then began the previously announced radical attack. Poincare's resignation was routine matter, as a result of the elections. The radicals apparently hoped to make Millerand's resignation as simple Their opposition to the pres ident is based on the fact that prior to the election he made statements which were interpreted as meaning he would resign if Poncare was repudiated. These statements also supported the national bloc.
 The socialist party. which has led the attack on the president, was the first to open Sunday. when party

BERLIN, June 1.-The German ac. count of the sinking of the Lusitania is to appear shortly in a new volume of the German official naval history of the war.
 The account, as given in the book, is based on the log of Commander Schwiger, of the U20, and the tor pedoing of the Lusitania is justified by the German author on the statement of customs officer of New York, who cOntended that the steamship carried ammunition. The same arguments as advanced after the sinki- 7, in which the British were held resI onsible for the lives lost because they insisted upon carrying ammunition on a passenger steamer, are set forth in great detail in the book.
