A chief master-at-arms commanded the armed guard across the Atlantic in a small tanker, and he reported as follows: "An insufficient supply of provisions was carried which, on the outward trip, resulted in no fresh meat after the eighth day. While Jj-ing at a French port we nad no Breakfast or dinner. "Coming' home the fresh provisions were S;one after three days at sea and we had to eat the emergency rations in the lifeboats. On the day we reached port there was nothing left in the Chip except tea. "On both outward and return voy- g-es the lights from ports and doors were continually exposed while pass ing" through the danger xone. I pro tested to the captain, but no steps were taken to stop it. While nearing the English coast the Morse lights and whistle were used, in spite of my pro tests, and the captain also refused to risTzag-. I told him to follow his ln- etructlons, but he replied that - the chip was slow and much time would fee lost by aigzagging. "During an encounter with an enemy ubBiartae either the captain Utm first officer gave the signal to aban don ship about 10 seconds after the enemy was sighted. The firemen came on deck, the engines were stopped, and there was a rush to the boats. The captain ordered the engineers below and requested that I send one of my men to see the order obeyed. A petty officer, armed with a pistol, saw the order obeyed. "The chief engineer was ordered by the captain to go below and get the ship under way. He did not obey this order, and I therefore covered him with my pistol and threatened to shoot him If he did not Immediately get the ship under way. He obeyed my order. The conduct of the chief engineer was in disobedience of orders in the pres ence of the enemy, and it was only after my threatening to kill him that he obeyed the captain. "The second and third of fleers were apparently afraid to order exposed lights extinguished. They showed an absolute lack of comprehension of their duty in this respect and never made the slightest effort to co-operate with the armed guard. The first officer, how ever, was of great assistance, and was the only who helped at all." A A sequel to this unhappy tale there is on file a note sent ashore from an anchorage in an Atlantic harbor Just after this staemer reached port: "To the Commanding Officer, Vavy yard: We regret to state that this ship is out or provisions and there was scarcely enough ' food for last night's supper. Up to the present we have had no breakfast or dinner. . Time is now 12:20 noon. (Signed) "THE ARMED GUARD." This ship was owned by a wealthy corporation, whose management was informed by the Navy Department, after Investigation, that no more armed guards would be furnished unless the captain, the second and third officers and the chief engineer were removed. This was done, and the ship sailed again with a new crew and enough to eat. As for the sheer cowardice dis played in the face of danger, the case was exceptional. The reports indicate, as will be displayed in the course of this story, that American merchant of ficers are acquitting- tkemselves brave ly, as might be expected amid the gravest hazards Imaginable. The statement of this chief master-at-arms is. extremely laconic He has no gift of narrative, but he knew how to get results. The fire-room gang in a panic the instant a submarine was sighted, swarming on deck to tumble into th.e the boats, the disgraceful rout led by the chief engineer, and two Navy men driving them below to their duty "I threatened to shoot him ... he obeyed my order" is a compact sum mary of the business. The ship lum bered on again, the gunners at their stations and busily shooting at a sub marine, which presently forsook them to seek a victim less pugnacious. I was recently aboard this same steamer while she lay In port. A dirty little hooker! Tou could fancy her banged about by the Winter gales, standing on her nose or almost rolling her funnel under, decks awash and bit ter weather for the bluejackets on lookout or standing watch, at their guns. The same chief petty officer was going out In her, with his eager crew of youngsters who lived in the hope of potting a submarine. Bronzed and taut, with the Navy stamp upon him. this commander of the armed guard said, with a smile: "Sure, I'm goiug again. And 500 men in our barracks would give a month's pay to swap stages with me. Yes; I know they're warm and dry ashore, and they get fed like fighting cocks. But there's something doing with us crews that are ordered out. Get the differ ence? By good luck I haven't been blown up yet, bat there's lads in the draft that have been torpedoed a cou ple of times. Do you see them hang ing back? Not on your life. All that ails those guys is that they have to wait too long to get another ship." XI be coaUau4A Special Train Planned by Students. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, Se attle, Dec. 8. (Special.)
