REPARATIONS.

GERMANY MAY ACCEPT.. FAVORED BY COALITION PARTIES. MOVE TO FORM CABINET, By Telegraph.—Press Assn. —Copyright. Received May 10, 5.5 p.m. London, May 10. The Berlin correspondent of the Daily News states that meetings of the Coalition parties, including the Centre People’s Party and the Democrats, decided in favor of acceptance of the ultimatum. A Cabinet willing to accept will be formed forthwith. Junkers are indignant at the parties’ decision.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn. Received May 11, 1.5 a.m. Berlin, May 9. The Majority Socialist members of the Reichstag adopted a resolution declaring that there is no object in accepting the Allies-’ ultimatum with a view to preventing the occupation of the Ruhr, unless Bavaria undertakes to disband the civic guard by the 20th inst., but expressed readiness to support every earnest attempt to fulfil the London financial demands. The resolution concludes: “The fulfilment of the ultimatum depends principally upon the readiness of citizens to make sacrifices. ""Upon them rests the responsibility for the future.” —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn. Received May 10, 10 p.m. Berlin, May 9.

The German Industrial Federation and various Ruhr industrial associations have adopted resolutions urging the rejection of the Allies’ terms, declaring they are ready to suffer occupation of the Ruhr district, which they declare is anyhow inevitable as soon as it is found that it is impossible for the terms demanded to be fulfilled. Members of the Reichstag who predicted the acceptance of the terms are now busy eating their words.—Times Service.
