 MT. Smyth asserted Won Papen told Tauscher that one Bridgeman Taylor (Von Der Goltz), would call for dynamite" and Tauscher, "replying on Yon Papens word as gentleman and German, be- lieved it to be an innocent transaction" ," The DuPonts who furnished the dyna- mite, the lawyer contended, were just as guilty of conspiracy as Tauscher.' He added, however, that the DuPonts believed the request legitimate, as did Tauscher.
 Von Papen also arranged for the de- livery in Hoboken, N. J., of a number of pistols, the attorney continued, and Tauscher relied on the good faith of his superior and obeyed with soldier-like loy- alty."
 Mr. Smyth said Tauscher had destroyed the books he kept, at Won Papen's sug- gestion, Hest the English learn from them the amount of ordnance accumu- lated by the Germans in this country, and where it was stored" Tauscher, counsel admitted, did not tell the truth to the agents of the department of jus tice when he was arrested because The was excited"

M'GEEVER ISSUES
 SIGNED STATEMENT

Hugh McGeever, member of the board of revenue issued signed statement yesterday in regard to an article appear ing in The Age-Herald yesterday morn ing, quoting Dr. Lovelady. MT. McGeever states that Dr. Lovelady must have been misquoted, as the statement was not true.
 Dr. Lovelady stated that he was not misquoted, only in that the reporter used Dr. Lovelady's name instead of the board of revenue. It was the board of reve- nue that passed the resolution and bor- rowed the money and other members apparently took exceptions to the per sonal reference made to Dr. Lovelady in the article.
 MT. McGeevers statement is as follows:
 Tn the Age-Herald of the B, under the heading Clark Is instructed to ask for bids on the Warrior River Road the following statement appears:
 pr. Lovelady, the president of the board, called attention to the fact that he was able to borrow $125,000 for the road fund few weeks ago at per cent. interest, but that the majority of the board of revenue proposed to expend the cost of building the two roads to the Warrior River from funds secured by the sale of county warrants that would bear interest of 4A per cent. This fact alone meant a considerable sum extracted from the treasury of the board of revenue, according to Dr. Lovelady.'
 Evidently Dr. Lovelady must have been misquoted as these are not the facts
 First, as to the loan. 1t was other members of the board, not the president, who were instrumental in getting that loan at the low rate of interest Second, it was plainly stated that said warrants musst not exceed 4% per cent. interest, thus giving the hoard an oppor- tunity of getting competitive bids on them which may be less than per cent, but in no event over 4% per cent"

There was a dearth of border advices at the war department today. Nothing was received relating to any incident in Mexico which might be the basis for charges contained in MT. Arredondo s note. The note will be submitted to Gen. eral Funston, so that report from Gen. eral Pershing may be obtained.
 The department was almost swamped, however, by the accommodating detailed work of getting 100000 National Guards men equipped and to the border in the shortest possible time. Reports to the quartermaster general showed that the railroads were meeting the unusual strain upon their facilities in highly satisfactory manner. Troop, supply and stock trains are rushing southward over every avail able line New trains are starting every hour. flood of railroad equipment Is converging on the border distribution points. Traffic experts of all lines in volved are toiling night and day with army officials to see that no serious de- lay occurs
