ly. Some contingency might arise by which it would be a diplomatic advan- tage to fire the first gun before Major Anderson fired; though the probabil- ities were overwhelmingly on the other side. The Confederate government at the time preferred that the European powers should place the blame on the United States for beginning a war.
 q kept the key of that gunroOm in my own pocket, and no human being could get into it except myself. There was no hole by which even a cat or dog could get in. The only opening was a window sash down a few inches from the top, which I lowered to ad- init air.
 "Well, sir, despite all these precau~ tions, one day while I was reading newspaper in my living quarters, all of a sudden I heard a report. The general had just come in, and he and I met in the hall. He was as white as a sheet, and I reckon I was pretty pale myself.
 "We both ran outside and saw a cloud of smoke over Moultrie The gun had been fired.
 T wondered how it could have hap pened, but the general didn't seem to care how it was, since it had hap pened. He went out as fast as he could go to the telegraph office to in form the government at Richmond that the gun had been fired without his order, it was supposed acciden- tally.
 "Well, you know the result. The firing of that gun fired the North as well. The people of the free states went wild, and from that moment the fate of the Confederacy was settled Our ports were blockaded so that one could get in little or nothing from abroad, while the Northern people could make or grow what they needed, and what they couldn't produce them selves they could buy wherever it was to be had cheapest. But, Lord how we did fight!

Youthful Union Defender.

William B. Miller of Bath, N. Y., thinks he was the youngest soldier in the Union army during the Civil war. In 1861, when he was eleven years old, he ran away from home and became a drummer boy with the first North Carolina volunteers, a regiment con- posed of Union men. He served five months with this regiment, and then became drummer with the tenth New York volunteer infantry with which he served through the war. He was four teen years old when he was discharged, at the grand review in Washington in 1865.

pened to be fired on?"
 "NO, l don't"
 He looked at his empty glass. I know he could tell any number of inn probable yarns and I was curious to know how long a bow he would draw in that instance. The yarn would cost another drink, but I ordered it. When the old man saw it safe in his tumbler he told the story.
 At the time Major Anderson was pent up in Sumter l. who had been an ordnance sergeant in the United States army and deserted to join the Confederates, was in Charleston. l went to General Beauregard and told him what experience l had had in ordnance. He told me I was just the man he wanted There was a big bluff going on to compel President Lincoln to order the evacuation of the fort. It has been supposed since, that Sum- ter was fired on to precipitate the war. That's all bosh. They wanted to get as many states as possible out of the Union, thinking that when nearly all were out the rest would be allowed to go peaceably.
 "SO fearful was General Beauregard that a shot would be fired from Fort MouItrie that he would only permit one gun to be shotted, and arranged that that one couldn't be fired except by electricity, from house in which he ate and slept. If bombardment was to take place, he wanted to fire the first shot himself. So he told me that he held me responsible for the electric instrument connected with the gun. The house was one of those big old mansions for which Charleston is famous, and there was plenty of room. I had three rooms for my family, be- sides the gunroom, as it was called. An order was issued that no one should go into that room except my self
 'aThe general explained to me that if the gun was fired without an or der from the president of the Confed- eracy, he would like to be fired out of it himself It would likely bring on war, and since the North had all the fOod-grOwing country and manufac- lures the result would in the end be disastrous to the South. At the same time, he didn't know himself all thae was going on, and if he received an order by telegram to fire, he wished to be in a position to obey it instant

 The old man stopped short in his story.
 "But you haven't told" I said, what fired the gun."

Major GeneAl NJ. w. ireland, Surgeon
General of the Army, replying to the pro-
test made by John Thomas Taylor, coun-
sci for the legislative committee of the
American Legion. against the discharge
of tubercular soldier patients from mill
tary hospitals, said no man is being dis
charged who can benefit by further treat
ment.
mo maD is being discharged" said Gen
eral Ireland, until the medical depart
ment has done absolutely everything for
him which it can do. Then, no man is
discharged If he is not fit to care for
himself. until arrangements have been
made to turn him over to the War Risk
Insurance Bureau.
''It is evident that many cases OF tuber-
culosis are not going to make further
Improvement after they have been in hos
pitals for more than a year. In such
cases, arrangements are made with the
War Risk Insurance Bureau to take them
over, If they so desire, and then they are
discharged. However, they are never dis
charged until it is demonstrated that
further treatment by the medical depart
ment will not be of any benefit to them
He further stated that no complaints
have come from enlisted men, but that
some commissioned officers have objected

the requirements We're. While this report
was not made public, it appears from a
statemen. made outside the council by the
Austrian delegation that of $1,000 tons of
food at Trieste which might be used to
feed the needy Austrians only 10000 tons
had so far been made available, and that
at the present rate of consumption Austria
would be able to feed her people only until
the end of the month. on half rations.
If nothing was done meantime, 1t was
declared, the nation would face starya-
ton. The delegation said that statistics
received by them showed that in Vienna
alone the deaths from starvation in 1919
had increased the number of deaths over
those OF 1918 by 10000.
The understanding here is that the
failure so far to receive a favorable reply
from the United States to the request TO
finance this temporary provisioning. is
due to the fact that the government is
unable to open credits for the $780, 900
required, without the approval of Con-
gress, and that in the absence of this
legislation the government is Obliged TO
ask payment in dollars for the supplies.
The position of the Allies is that they
have no dollars available. and that the
present rate of exchange would make
them pay something like double prices for
food which is needed for urgent relief pur-
poses.

ERzBERGER LAYS WAR GUILT
( UPON CONSERVATIVE PARTY

STUTTGART. Germany, Monday.--Ma-
thias Erzberger, Vice Premier and Minis
ter of Finance, addressing several thou
sands of nersons at the invitation OF the
Contre party declared the present govern
ment was not responsible for the chaotic
situation and laid responsibility for the
war upon the Conservative Party. He
added that the armistice was asked for
by Field Marshal Won Hindenburg and
General Ludendorf.
With regard to the delivery OF those
guilty of war crimes, Herr ErZberger said
that the court at Leipzig would prosecute
those guilty of inexcusable acts, If Ger
many's enemies would furnish lists OF
those persons to the German government.
