This did nothing to clear the sit uation and Mr. De Valera kept ris ing frequently, pressing his argu ment that they must act constitu- tionally, keep the republic in being and give it a ministry, tit objected to the creation of any alternative government, which would suppress the dail, and declared that if the re public, as- it existed, were abandoned, he and his followrs would walk out. ' "t Speech Praised. His declaration of willingness to stand behind the a new government, if such action entailed no sacrifice of principle, and his further statement that'tie and his associates were ready .. to hack the. new government i it should require support against any outside enemy were loudly cheered Commandant. McKeown cried out that De Valera s speech was the most statesmanlike he . had ever made. ' v . ... . However, Mr. De Valera's words were not echoed by several "of his republican followers. Miss 'Mac Swiney, Liam Mellowes, David Kent andv others displayed a determination to fight out the republican cause. Miss Macwinney was particularly iorcible m her threat against any at tempt by 4he new provisional gov ernment to adopt the repubican tri color as the flag pi the new free state, . Ms. Collins apparently thought they -would summon a ratifying body of members for southern Ireland, in cluding the four; members represent ing: Trinity college. They could call it the Dail Eircamv until: somebody knowing Irish well coutd find a bet ter name .for 'it. This was, imiiiedi ately; countered with the -reminder that the 'Trinity college - members would not take the republican -oath. - Possibilities of Trouble Throughout the .debate Mr. Col lins t howed he realized the possibili ties 4f a. misunderstanding of their first - steps as 'a provisional troveni? menf. , Sdme of -them i would have to go to ; Dublin I.Castle, if only to find vout what wjs there.V Me pro voked general laughter by saying one cf the first things they would do" would be to try to get back, 20,000 pounds of the republic funds . the crown authorities had' appropriated. He . drew a - parallel between their entry into Dublin Castle and the en try of General MacReady, " com mander-in-chief of the British forces, into the Mansion house. vJ, The question: of the . republican funds was ventilated lengthily. Re llyhig to Harry J. Boland, Mr . Col lins made it plain that loans col lected for the republic would be Daid in accordance 'with the terms of the bonds; he would regard it as a breach oJthe treaty to object to this course. JHe' declared' that his side, in their opposition to their col Icagaes, had- not used a penny of the republican funds and hoped that the other side could say the same. Incidentally he revealed the fact that members of the Dail Eireann re ceire compensation for their services. He suggested that the funds in the future should remain In trust in the hands of the existing trustees, these including Monsignor Foearty. bishop of Killaloc and Mr. De Valera.

Induced to Accept. . "While I was considering whether or not it was my duty to become a candidate for the office I said to Mr. Allen Templeton of Detroit, who was actively engaged in a large industry in which I was a stockholder and who was also president Of the De troit Board of Commerce, that if I should decide to become a candidate I hoped it would meet with the ap proval of my Detroit business friends and associates, and that I trusted the campaign might be looked after by business men ; of that description. This is as far as I had any -direct connection with selection of the com mittee or business men who man aged the campaign. . "Mr. Paul H. King was induced to accept the active management of the campaign. Ihe selection of Mr. King did not originate with me.' I knew Mr. King but slightly. My last contract with him had been in 1912 when we were political op ponents. - , ' Interview in New York. , "In my , judgment Paul King is a man ot the highest character. "He. came to New York and we had a brief interview. We did not discuss, even indirectly; a detail of the campaign. I recall that during the conversation, Mr. King in answer to a question as to how much it had cost the friends 08 Senator Townsend, whose campaign .Mr. King had managed, said ,jt had cost approximately. $20,000, and, added that in view of the situation then existing in Michigan, he thought it would cost my friend approximately $50,000 ta make a successful cam paign. This is the only amount of money which, directly or indirectly, I ever heard mentioned in connection with the senatorial campaign in Michigan until after the primary election and the report of the com mittee was filed. After our interview in New .York, Mr. King went back, to Michigan and prosecuted a campaign conduct ing it entirely in his own way. "On onp or two occasions, ques tions of policy were discussed be tween us and jn each instance, the judgment of Mr. King controlled Campaign of Publicity. "I knew, as a matter of fact, that a campaign of publicity was. being extensively carried on, and I realized that such a campaign must neces sarily cost a considerable sum 'of money; but I did not have the faintest idea as to the. amount of money that actually was expended until after the report was made pub lic The cost of the campaign was about $195,000, according to the re port, and when I learned of this amount, I was at once-filled with astonishment and regret. . . -. . . "The amount expended was large, more than I had any. idea was be ing expended; and more than ought to be necessary to expend in any ordinary campaign. But this was not an ordinary campaign. "It is and always has been mv un derstanding that, insofar as the pri mary in Michigan is concerned, if the cost is not borne by the candi date himself, the committee in charge of the campaign may spend what ever amount it pleases for the 11 enumerated objects which are set forth at length in- the Michigan pri mary law. I therefore, assUVned from the start and I still believe, that the law was carefully obeyed by this independent committee, which had .the campaign for my primary election in hand. ... Not a Single Dollar. "It has been hinted that money which was contributed, without my knowledge or consent by relative and friends of mine, was subse quently, in some way, directly or m directily, repaid by me, or was to be repaid by me.

Mr. Laliberty, who is said to be a Icareful driver, made every effort to bring the par to a stop, according to witnesses. . When the car . plunged over the embankment, it turned over twice and landed right side up. The fact that all the occupants were thrown clear of the wreck is said to have saved them from more serious injury and possible death. The auto mobile was- wrecked. paign. I did not know by whom these, amounts were given. "So far as I am personally con cerned, I did not spend in the pri mary campaign in Michigan a single dollar, directly or indirectly, and, with the exception of a personal con tribution of $1,500 to the republican state central committee, this is equally true of the general election. I . was elected , fairly and honorably a senator from . the state of Michigan." , - Row Over Cable line Nearing Settlement Washington, Jan. 9.
