Gen. Harvey yesterday discussed with
delegation from the Washington
Board of Trade. headed by Odell Smith,
which came here to inspect the encamp-
ment, the question of a business mems
camp in conjunction with the National
Guards encampment next year. The
delegation was enthusiastic over the
proposition of having war strength
company of Washington business men
to attend next years maneuvers. Gen:
Harvey told the committee he would
like to have them with his command
for a period of two weeks.
He said today that the expense per
man for the two weeks in camp would
not be more than $40. 1t would in
clude uniform, meals and equipment.
The tentage and rifles, as well as the
necessary instructors, Gen. harvey
said, he would furnish.
The machine gun company is having
it's difficulties at target practice with
ball cartridges. The command went up
the river and began firing at the tar

witness the sham battle" made up
boat parties and went to the point OF
the river where the practice was be-
ing held. The shots were being pumped
at targets in the river at the rate OF

tice was halted in time to prevent
casualties. and the company was forced
to suspend operations for the day. Be
cause of the presence of the curious.
this company now is compelled to get
it's practice very early in the morning.
Capt. H. p Hobbs of the regular
army, special instructor, has nothing
but praise for the District soldiers. He
said they had done excellent work.

CAMP ORDWAY, National Guard OF
the District of Columbia, Colonial Beach,
Va, August 25.-In an effort to proper
ly cover the landing of reinforcements
the blue army of Maryland, which
invaded Virginia shores yesterday. was
today intrenching itself in the vicinity
of Wilkersons. A battalion of the
blue army left the camp grounds
with picks and shovels added to the
already heavy pack equipment.
They went to the point on the Will
kerson-Colonial Beach road where the
| rear guard of the red" forces were
defeated yesterday. There the pack
equipment was thrown temporarily
aside and the entire battalion started
digging in the hard ground.
1t was not a shallow trench which
they were required to construct. -Four

the hard Virginia clay. which raised

The hn2nc;crinS AND tiS "Ha:.sS

city, and to a lesser extent the snort

exposed in the district court Weunes-
day afternoon and today in the trlal
of the suit brought by the First Ma
tional Bank, of this city, against D.
&c. Dilenbeck, a banker. or Perry. Inc
bank is suing Dillenbeck to get Judg-
ment on three of his promissory notes
of a face value of $9,75S.
Dillenbeck, who was the most IN
fluantial in securing the removal OF the
Shorthill company to Ferry, VINO was
the heaviest Perry stock subscriber 10
the Perry company, the Shorthll steer
& Iron Works, and a director and wee
president of the corporation, is re-
sisting payment on the ground that the
notes on which he is being used were
Accommodation paper OF his given
for the A. E. Shorthill Company.
The bank went no farther with It's
evidence in the opening OF the trlal
Wednesday afternoon than to ntro-
duce the notes, which the defense ad-
mits are Dillenbecks. Dillehbeck, When
put on the witness stand for the pur-
pose of proving that his notes grew
out of his being a surety for the Snort
hill company, said that in 1912 Z. X.
Speers, president of both Shorthlil
companies, represented to him, that the
First National Bank, of this city, hau
loaned all that it would loan Speers on
Shorthill paper, but that 1t could IN
crease the loan if it had additional ana
other collateral security. Speers said,
Dillenbeck testified, that the bank held
as cola terai against the Shorthill loan,
ample security such as Union Pa
cifc contract for 5000 acres of Col
orado land, and some building con-
tracts
Using this argument Dillenbeck said
Speers persuaded him to accept a
series of sight drafts for $4,000 Speers
drew payable to ourselves. Dillen-
becks' acceptance on them being, in et-
feet his Endorsement. These sight
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1915-04-01

,tdrafts were renewed from time to time.
Dillenbeck always accepted the sight
drafts, he testified, but eventually the
current sight drafts up with the bank
became over due. Dillenheck testified
President c. C. st. Clair demanded
that Dillenbeck put up his own paper
in lieu Of the overdue sight drafts
which the bank would carry no longer.
Dillenbeck did so.
He testified he had been deceived
by Speers, and that he was led to be-
lieve that this paper was to be taken
up by money collected by the A. f..
Shorthill Company and that in any
event the bank had ample collateral to
protect him, Dillenbeck. He said he
never paid any interest-the note Tor
the odd amount. S75s. he said, repre-
scented past due interest on the princi-
pal-and that he never expected to be
called on to pay the notes.
Dillenbeck's attorneys have alleged
Dillenbeck was deceived by Speers and
that his acceptances on the drafts
Were procured by fraud and mfsrep-
resentation. 1t Is quite likely that on
this point the case will turn. The
banks attorney is resting or the legal
proposition that the defence can not go
back of the notes sued on and set up
fraud in some previous negotiable pa
per behind these notes as defense.
Dllenbeck was on the witness stand
most of the forenoon. r. j. Shoemaker,
receiver for the A. E. Shorthill Com
pany, was called as was also Harry
Speers, former officer and bookkeep-
err of the A. e. Shorthill Company. The
latter was on the stand when court
was adjourned at noon.
