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

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

to the mast ' What I said I meant "I
Mr. De Valera appealed for har

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

Irish unity and pear, with honor with
England.
The followers of Eamonn Je Valera

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

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

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
