Washington, June 12--After conference with President Coolidge today, Senator Borah said his attitude toward the Vice-Presidential nomination was unchanged.
The Idaho Senator left the White House at 10:55 a. m. and refused to add to his earlier statement that he would not accept the nomination at the hands of the Cleveland convention.
Discussion between the President and Senator Borah was at considerable length. The Senator, however, declined to go into any details whatever as to the conversation.
Senator Borah said he had sent a telegram to former Senator Beveridge of Indiana, to be read at the convention, if by any chance his name was placed in nomination. This telegram, he said, would definitely end all consideration of his selection.
The Idaho Senator said he considered that Federal Judge William S. Kenyon of Iowa and Governor Hyde of Missouri had the best chance for the place.
