9 2 THE OGDEN STANDARD-EXAMINER TUESDAY EVENING. FEBRUARY 21, 1922. H I SPLIT INVITED BY DE VALERA 1 Better Two Armies, He Says, Than One Divided Against Itself DUBLIN. Feb. 21 (By the Asso ' uteri Prw ) Eamonn de Valera. apparently regarding a split of the Sinn Fein party as Inevitable, openly ad vocated such a division in addressing the Ard Fels. tho national Sinn Fein onventlon at Its extraordinary session toda, saying It would be better for Ireland to have two armies, each ready to neslFt tht other If the country were Imperilled rather than one army dlvld i I against Iteelf. Mr. de Valera's BPS! ch was tho out J standing feature of the morning ses sion f Ard Fels, which had only be Kiin the discussion of the party's fil ature policy for or against the Anglo lr!h treaty when the luncheon ad journment was taken at 140 p. m un til three o'clock. DE VALERA APPLAUDED Speaking on his resolution urging the .Sinn Fein party to continue the light for a republic, Mr. de Valera 'won hearty applause at numerous Points he made In his address 'I would rather sp the country .flooded with British troops than give them the Irrevocable right to be here." '-was one of its assertions, made In a ''dramatic manner, which resulted in loud cheers. ' Ireland." he declared later on, "is '.entitled to the dignity of a mother nuntry, ami I will never consent to make her the illegitimate daughter of England." Again, he said: "My position Is the same as when I was made pretdden of this organiza tion when I said Our colors are nailed to the mast ' What I said I meant "I Mr. De Valera appealed for har - mony but welcomed the- division: -hould a breakup occur, saying he and I Arthur Griffith alwavs had been col-i I- leagues ar.d would continue so. Most of the morning session was taken up with making arrangements for a vote, which probably will be taken on Mr. De Valera's motion about 7 o'clock this evening, although It was agreed this morning that if t4o Aid Fheis desired to postpone the- vote and continue debate it could do so. The hall was crowded and many delegates were forced to stand finding great dif ficulty In hearing the speakers. Mr Griffith said he was determined that tho people should decile the ouestlon of accepting or rejecting the U treaty. Their serdlct would bo suf ficient for him, and he would not at tempt then to obstruct Others working for other aims In the same way he would expect if the Free st Bupporl -era won, that there would be no ob struction to it from its opponents. Regarding l ister, he said, he want ed to win the present Unionists for Ireland, but never in favor of coercing ihem. Ho closed with an appeal for Irish unity and pear, with honor with England. The followers of Eamonn Je Valera hope to show that the majority Is not CANADIAN CITY ROUGH ON ORYS' Windsor, Ont. Regarded as Unsafe Place for 'Pussyfoot' DETROIT. Feb. 21. Because Win dor.

Nothing has developed to Indicate definitely the division of sentiment 'on Mr. de Valera's resolution and Ar-i thur Griffith's amendment, proposing! i that the Ard Fgis support the action of the Dall Elrphnn in approving the!

PELLETIER LOSKOFFICE Massachusetts Supreme Court Finds Lodge Man Guilty as Charged (Continued from Pao One) J In disposing of cases brought to the t t.MHlon of the dlstrl t nttorney's olflce was th" basis of five of the chnrj;es Tho urate maintained that Pelletler should be removed because he had rr talned the assistants In office knowing their conduct to have been Improper Among tho charges In support of which the state Introduced testimony wore some to the effSOt that Pelletler had conspired with Daniel II Coakley of Boston, n lawyer and others to com mit blackmail by threatening crlmln- al prosecution The bank records of , Coakley and Kelletlr offered by the 3tato were excluded as a whole hut were admitted In four rases involving alleged money transactions. NO DEFENSE EVIDENCE No evidence was offered for the de fense United States Sonator James A. Reed of Missouri, chief counsel for i'elleticr, declared that thi whole pro ceeding was based on a conspiracy :igalnt his client by political :ind por sonal enemies and also that the prose cution had fallen flat because the state had failed to connect the district at torney with any wrong doln Senator Keed suld the defense elected to stand on the case as presented by tho state, arguing that there was nothing in It to which the district attorney need make defense by testimony. The at torney Kr-neral. in his closing argument urge.i Pelletler' a rallure to tako the stand as a point against him. By cross examination or state wit nesses tin 1 in the arguments of his counsel. Telletler's defen.se was thi lie acted properly In handling all times, that many of thefse which ho declined to press were efforts to us his office as collection agency and that he nev er it any time cexcrpt in one c se when he was paid a legitimate fee as at torney in a law firm received any mon ey return. Two Boston attorneys Coaklev and William J. ircoran. the latter a for mer district attorney of Middlesex county -were named in tho original Information as co-consplrators with Pelletler and three more names were addd during the progress of the trial The latter wore Francis M Carroll, former tire commissioner Daniel J Oallaghgr, a former assistant to Pelle tler and also a former L'nlted States district attorney and Jack Patron, n detective. CONSPIRACY ( BARGED The state charged B general con uplracy between Coakley and Pelletler and alleged that the others were call ed In from tirno to time pn specific schemes to blackmail In this connec tion the state called attention to evi dence that Coakley, having a large leiiril practice, boasted of his Influence with the district attorney in and out of the presence of Pelletler, without re-sent ine-nt by the latter. Thus, he prosecution charged, it became gener ally known that Coakley could obtain favors from the district attorney which were denleu others and mai c.ix. - were placed in Coaklcy's hand !m cn.r-. I of this reputed influence That con dition the state charged, made It easy I for Pelletler and Coakley to carr or I their alleged blackmailing schemes. Gallagher was charged in one in stance with having 'sold out his clients under a promise In the fulfillment of which it was alleged he afterwards was appointed an assistant district at- rorney In that case evidence was nd- duced to the effect that Coakley. rep ' resenting the divorced husband of Mr.' I Jennie S. Chase's daughter, offered to avert criminal prosecution, threat ened by Pelletler, if Mrs Chase would pay $50,000 She refused, although Gallagher as her counsel, tho state ' nient charged, recommended the pa I ment. Subsequently an Indictment wa. i returned in Suffolk QOtinty agnln&t ; Curtis W. Emery, second husband o: Mrs Chase's daughter, but ffmery w;ic i never prosecuted and Gallagher after I being named an assistant district al I torney nol prosecuted the case.

They denied the charge of the state that tho fee was ! extorted by threats that unless It wre I paid Pelletler would, have some one ' "watch" a hotel owned by Piscope. A motion attacking the right of the j court qfo remove a district attorney. ! on the greund that he legislature ainti had that authority was overrulled by the Court, which held also at the out that the proceeding was a civil one and nol oua.-l-crlmlnal as was con I tended by l elletier's counsel.
