New York. — Custom officer* have selz.-d nearly 000 modern machine guns, alleged to have been found concealed aboard the steamship Hast Side tied up In Hoboken, loading for an Irish port. This became known when the 1L>boken police flushed with tlie customs men over possession of the arms. The gun* flimlly were taken to Hoboken police headquarters. According to Chief of Police Hayes of Hoboken, the arms were seized by the federal ngenis. He said a man giving the name of Frank Wllllnui# appeared In recorder'* court and swore out a search warrant, claiming the

weapons.

Tlie Hoboken police said that when they went to the pier where the East Side Is tied up, they were told there were no iimchine guns there.

According to the Hob« len police, the guns were seized hy federal agents on the charge that their shipment was illepil because no permit hud been obtained from the state department to send them out of the country. Ublef Hayes asserted the customs men had obtained their first information concerning the presence of the weapons aboard the East Side from a member .of the crew. According to reports reaching government agencies two change* of crews, brought about hy the nationwide marine strike, resulted In discovery of the arms. It is reported that a member of one of the crews “tipped off" the government Investigator*. Presence of the arms on hoard the East Side was not known to the owner of the ship, the United States Shipping Board, or Its nmneging operators, until they- were informed of their discovery by federal investigators. The East side cleared for Norfolk, where, according to Chief of Police Hayes of Hoboken, she was to take a cargo of coal for a port In Ireland. The arms were found concealed In various parts of the vessel. Government representatives would make no officl"! statements on the matter pending conclusion of the Investigation, hut it Is understood they were informed that after the second crew hud assumed charge of the ship, some unknown person In a launch hulled the \vut< liman ami asked permission to remove from the vessel some “supplies'' which had been delivered aboard the East Side by mistake.
