Durham Win No Longer
Fight Mayor Weaver.
Says He WIN Not Oppose
Mayors New Officials.


Philadelphia. May Estate Insur-
ance Commissioner Israel Durham,
leader of the Republican organization
in Philadelphia for the last 10 years,
and whose influence reached far into
the interior of Pennsylvania, late this
afternoon. Internationally surrendered
to Mayor Weaver who opened the war
on the organization last Tuesday.
The action Of Leader Durham was
great surprise to the people of the city,
as all of his lieutenants and the rank
and file of the organization had been
given to understand that the fight be-
gun by Mayor Weaver over the gas
lease would be fought to a finish.
In the forenoon, today, Leader Dur
ham sent for the ward leaders, nearly
all of whom responded and pledged
their fealty to the organization and it
looked as though the fight would be a
long one. Shortly after this meeting.
however, William S. Ware. recorder of
deeds, close political friend OF Dur
ham, called upon the mayor and as
sured him that he and his brother.
State Senator George A. Ware. would
stand by him. This move caused a SEM
sation in political circles. and rumors
became current that the organization
was crlmbling.
Mr.. Durham sent for some ward
leaders and after n conference. he re-
leased them from their pledge to stand
by him and made the following an
nouncement:
81 have advised my friends not to or
pose the confirmation of A. Lincoln
Acker, as director of public works and
Col. Sheldon Potter as director Of pub
lie safety. if their names are sent to

bodies to pass a resolution recalling
