meet the French objections. Mr. MacDonald was up betimes and at the Quai d’Orsay to resume the conversation this morning, these labors being suspended for the lunch given in the British Premier’s honor, to enable the members of the Parliamentary Foreign Affairs Committees to meet the distinguished visitor. Much was expected from this personal contact in the future attitude of the Senate and Chamber to the Conference. MacDonald’s Version. The British correspondence relating to the Conference, issued in London yesterday, contains a letter from Mr. MacDonald to the Belgian Ambassador, with the following important passages: “It would be undesirable to give to the instrument of agreement a form which would have the appearance of a treaty explicitly modifying the Treaty of Versailles. The most convenient form would be that of a protocol which might contain provisions covering the following points: “1. An undertaking by all the signatory Governments to stand by the recommendations of the Dawes Report in their entirety. “2. A pledge by the German government to put into execution by a given By Téléphoné! COLOMBES STADIUM, Tuesday afternoon. — The steady drizzle which had been descending upon the scene of the Olympia track and field games since early morning lifted a little at three o’clock, and allowed the competitions to start on time. Despite the threatening weather, a large crowd had turned out, attracted by the sprint events, always popular with sport crowds. The sprints are particularly attractive in these games because of the battle of the Americans to stave off the victory of the flying Briton, Abrahams. In the 200-mètre dash, the track was heavy. It has been well constructed, and has drained sufficiently of rainfall so that fairly fast times may be registered. But it will be a marvel if any sprint records are qualified or heated today. In the semi-finals of the 200-mètre dash there were two heats, and twice the Stars and Stripes were raised above the stadium to announce an American winner. Scholz and Padlock took their respective trials in 21 4/5 sec. In the first, Hill, of the United States, was second,

In the semi-finals of the 200-mètre dash there were two heats, and twice the Stars and Stripes were raised above the stadium to announce an American winner. Scholz and Padlock took their respective trials in 21 4/5 sec. In the first, Hill, of the United States, was second, while Abrahams, the Englishman who in a flash of speed beat Padlock yesterday in the elimination heat, had to content himself with third place. Thus the prospects of America for first place in the finals are bright, for all four of her stars have won entry in the decisive event. Norton placed third in the second heat, nosed out for second by Liddell of Great Britain. Thus there are four Americans and two British who have qualified for the final. At 3.30 the men lined up for the finale of the 110 métrès hurdles, and when the dust had cleared the American flag, for the third time in the afternoon, was raised above the stands to tell of a victory for the United States. Kinsey broke away from the field at the start, and was over the tape in 15 sec., 25 feet ahead of Atkinson, of South Africa. While 1/5 sec. behind the world’s record time for the distance, Kinsey’s performance was remarkable on the low and slippery track, which interfered more with the hurdlers than it had with the men in the dash. Falls at Hardie, Petterson, and Christersson, of Sweden were third and fourth, while Anderson, of

Falls at Hardie, Petterson, and Christersson, of Sweden were third and fourth, while Anderson, of the United States, who had been leading them, fell at the ninth hurdle, picked himself up and went over the remaining two, but could not regain his lost distance; He took fifth place. Guthrie, the American who took his elimination heat so handily yesterday that many had picked him to win today’s event, was disqualified for knocking down three hurdles. As the races went on, it became apparent that the track was not as solid as it had first appeared, which accounts for the fall of Anderson. The course became soggier and soggier as it was used, although a breaking-up of the clouds made everyone expect the sun to come out any minute. Fifteen Minutes’ Delay. The 10,000-mètre walk began at four o’clock fifteen minutes late. Not a dramatic affair like a sprint, a walking race is always provocative of amusing incidents. In the second lap, Austen, of Australia, was disqualified for running too fast. In the seventh lap, Kuhnet, the Austrian, who was leading the field by half a lap, was taken out for the same reason.

Military Control Will Be Absolute The Conference of Ambassadors last night forwarded to the German Ambassador in Paris its reply to the German Note of June 30 on the subject of a renewal of military control. It refrains from discussing afresh any of the side issues dwelt upon therein, and “notes with satisfaction” that Germany accepts a military inspection, to be carried out by the Inter-Allied Military Control Mission. But it emphasizes that the eventual withdrawal of this Mission is subject not only to the satisfactory results of the general inspection, but upon German compliance with demands for five categories of information imposed previously and hitherto ignored, principally with regard to war industries and the organization of the General Staff, including mobilization plans. As regards the modality of carrying out the inspection, it will be the business of the Inter-Allied Control Mission to examine, in the same conciliatory spirit that has animated the latest communications of the Allied Powers, such useful suggestions as the German Government may have to present, the Ambassadors déclaré.

Unamuno Exile Ordered Ended MADRID, Wednesday.—It is announced here that Don Miguel de Unamuno, who was banished to the Canary Islands at the beginning of this year for attacks in speeches on the King of Spain, has been amnestied.

Cincinnatus refused to leave his post. Mr. Taggart was too hardened a politician to betray his disappointment. He went immediately into conference with Mr. George McKinna of Illinois, and shortly thereafter the Ralston totals began to decline and those of Mr. John W.

Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt mounted the convention rostrum when it covered last night and informed the delegates that Governor Smith was offering to withdraw if Mr. McAdoo would. But the Smith votes never wavered. When Mr. McAdoo’s refusal was borne to the convention, the Smith votes were holding steady and the convention galleries were singing a song beginning "Clarence McAdoo, The "adieu", pronounced with the upper East Side making a triple rhyme with "You" and "McAdoo." The song was caught up by the Smith delegates on the floor and is now a regular accompaniment to the declining McAdoo vote. Reconsidered 'Refusal.' Between early evening and midnight, the convention passed through moments of turmoil as the Smith delegates waged a vigorous battle.

Mr. Meredith had been receiving the vote of his home State every night and then when they wandered from the McAdoo ranks. On some of the ballots he had picked up half a dozen other votes. He never had been in the front rank even of the "dark horses," but swayed in the mantle of Mr. McAdoo he began to pick up speed and had galloped into fourth position by adjournment. Missouri was the first to desert Mr. McAdoo, followed by Oklahoma and Mississippi. The delegates no longer are voting by the unit rule, and their strength has been scattered between Mr. Davis, Mr. Meredith, and Senator Carter Glass, of Virginia, who is fifth, and not yet out of the race.

Downey was at one time the holder of the middleweight championship, when Johnny Wilson was in had standing with the New York Boxing Commission. BRITISH OLYMPIC SABRES HERE Hungarians, First Opponents, Are Favorites The British Olympic sabre team, which has just arrived in Paris, is composed of members whose prowess is known and respected in England and the Continent. Although the selection is satisfying to the British Olympic committee, the first opponent, the Hungarians, are considered favorites over the English wrestlers in view of their victory at London in 1908 and at Stockholm in 1912. There is an appreciable handicap to the English team in the fact that these men have accustomed themselves to the middle-weight sabres of 13oz., whereas they will be forced to use the standard Olympic weight of 15-3/4-oz. in their matches. The team is as follows: A. Corble, Captain Cameron, Commander E. Bronson, Captain A. Dalglish, Mr. W. W. Marsh, and Lieutenant Commander of the others, subscribe in part or conditionally to the clauses of the proposed convention, provided that such reservations do not subtract from its binding force generally. The principal American objection was that the Saint-Germain Agreement was so closely linked with the League of Nations Covenant that the United States could not ratify one without approving the other. This objection is to be met by the proviso that the Council of the League shall decide whether the new control organism shall or shall not be made part of the League of Nations organism.
