which babe him farewell at rail

De Valeras train left at 80 a. IN, but
the early hour did not deter hundreds OF
Irish enthusiasts from crowdins the
platform at which the train stood. The
smoky aisles were massed with men and
women under forest of Sim Fem rags
and self determination banners.
De Valera obviously was touched by
the demonstration. Speaking In a low

peated the speech in English.

enthusiasm. It was so In America. No
cause but a just cause can inspire such
enthusiasm.
"A lust cause is bound to win. 1t may
take some time to achieve our ends, but
success certainly win be ours In the
end"
De valera's party included Arthur

AS CHAIRMAN;
SHANK ASSENTS
Republican Party Head Said
to Have Agreed to Help
Nominee.

With the acquiescence Of Samuel Lewis
Shank. Republican candidate for mayor.
Irving LcmaUX, In all probability, Will
remain the chairman OF the Republican
city committee throughout the city cam
paisn.
All plans for the calling OF the com
mlttee and the election Of a new chair
man were called of today, after long
negotiations for an amicabie settlement
OF the craftsmanship question had failed
to produce a candidate on which the
two factions In the Republican ranks
could agree.
Mr. Shank continued to hold out for
Or. f. E. Hodgin as his choice for the
craftsmanship Mr.. Lemaux refused to
call a meeting Cf the committee and sub
nit his resignation until It was def
nitely determined who would be elected
to succeed him. The followers OF Dr..
uodgin could not obtain the chairman
ship for him and Mr.. Shank expressed
desire 10 see Lemaux remain chairman
rather than have a fight on the floor OF
the committee meeting.
CHAIRMAN TO
AID CANDIDATE.
1t IS understood that the differences
between Mr. Lamux and Mr.. shank have
been practically ironcd out and that the
chairman has agreed to give his best ef-
forts for the election or the nominee.
The original cause OF friction between
the two was a report which reached
shank to the effect that Lemaux was
planning to send his resignation 20 the
committee with a letter declining to as
sist In any way In the election OF shank.
The nominee wrote a letter demanding
Lcmaux's resignation for the avowed pur-
pose Of preventing Lemaux from injurlng
him by declining to serve as chairman
Of the committee that IS presumed TO elect
the pa-ty nominee.
Since that time Shank and Lemaux
have become well enough acquainted to
