Chief Devery, after getting the shrewd- est legil advice, determines to “atand pat" and make a stubborn fight for the retention of his office. Tis declaration to The Evening World to-day olearly ourtines the course he will pursue and the spirtt which governs him in this crista. When Gov. Odell. signs the single- headed police bill to-¢i despite the ast that It not only terminates Dev- ery’ Chief. but drops him out of the department; despite the fact that the Commissioners have passed a reso- lution which will place Moses W’. Cort- right at the head of the force—despite all visible. obstacles and those that might arise, Willlam 8. Devery will’ hold grimly to his office. Deve I Ady Devery han had the advice of Delos McCunly, the well-known constituttona Jawyer. All the aspects of the cane wer Kone over and a line of action laid out, Qxing of which ex-District-At- sa Bird Gardiner and Corpora- tion Counsel Whalen added their advice. The matter was also given to the con- sideration of the legal minds of Tam- many's Law Commities, and the result of all of the conferences and research of law ts that Devery has a good fight- ing chance of winning out. This is the plan agreed upon. Devery’ will remain in office until forced out. AX soon an Gov. Odell signs the bill he will, of course. be asked to vacate. He will refuse and anticipate any other Move against him by fighting the con- stitutionality of the Police Act. Devery Steen Seaton.
