O'Neil explained that Judge Charles Lynch of the United States District Court had merely issued a writ of de. tention against the weapons. There mystery about thi exclaimed O'Neil. “Fallon has all the There's no deep secret about how my client came by the guns. And there's no law that prevents him from elling them to anybody, anywhere, just so long as he does not sell them to an enemy country. He could sell them to James O'Brien of Dublin as legally as he could to Juan de la Flores or somebody of Mexico City. On Filibustering “There is a decision by Supreme Court Justice Storey in a filibustering where arms were carried to Trin- idad and Cuba against the protest of the Spanish government. This de- cisian said that there was no violation of international law to land the stuff in Cuba, even by stealth. The only thing was that the filibuster was run- personal risk and risk of con- fiscation not in this country, but in the country into which the arms had be smuggled. But there was no breach of law in so guns in that case.” “As a matter of fact, then, inter- rupted a reporter. “weren’t these guns to be smuggled to O'Brien of Dublin?” That's how much interes no invoices. case nin minute. “God, no,” said O'Nelil. They were Detective Sergeant Beatty is shown “Did you say God knows?” “I did not, I do not know what their destination was. I will not tell you anything about Williams, or where he lives, or where he does his business. He doesn’t want me to. All I can tell you is that he had the guns here in New York and sent them by truck on June 11 to Campbell's Warc- house in Hoboken. The truckman came back without the receipts that the warehouse people should have given him. Williams sent the man to get the receipts, and that's the last we saw of the man “If the Department of Justice wants Willlams it knows where to get him. H > of the depart- ent’'s men this afternoon.

The detailed story of how the ma- chine guns got into the East Side was told last night by a person in a posi- tion to know. It seems that last week a gang of strike agitators boarded the East Side and beat up the engine room crew so badly that the latter deserted Hoboken. The East Side, scheduled to sail Monday or Tuesday, had to have an engine room crew and a chief engineer. On Saturday night a giant with an unmistakable brogue applied for the job of chief engineer. He was grabbed by the Cosmopolitan people before they even asked for his name and credentials. “De you want a crew for the en- gine room along with me?’ "ha de- manded. They told him that they wanted nothing else so much as a crew. “I have my own with me,”” said the stranger. ———————————————————————————— Three Big Specials at the Hosiery Dept.

According to a member of the crew questioned last night by the depart- ment of justice men, all the new en- gine room crew were Irishmen. Sun- day morning several motor boats drew alongside the East Side. The chief engineer and his men boldly proceed- ed to throw ropes over the side, and the men in the launches tied the bags and boxes thereto. There was no sec- recy affected. The bags and boxes were left strewn across the deck. But one suspicious seaman suspect- ed a bomb plot. He slit a bag, saw a machine gun and decided to inform the Cosmopolitan people. But when the latter and the Customs men came to look the bags were gone. They had been lowered into the bunkers.
