Ocw of Surrendered Vessel
Put* Out Flamcs After
an Excitiug Struggle
B0ST0N, April 17.?Julius Fischer,
?n agent of the Hamburg-American
Stcamship Line. set fire to a stateroom
of the transport Patricia on Tuesday
night. while the vessel was steaming to
this port with nearly 3,000 American
joidiers. The fire was extinguished by
members of the crew and Fischer was
placed in irons.
The Patricia hails from Hamburg
and is one of the tirst of the German
merchant fleet to be turncd over for
use by the United States according to
an agreement with Germany. Fischer
is otie of several Germans who were
allowed to remain on board the lincrs
to represent the vessel's owners.
The German was taken to the Naval
Hospital to-night for observation.
Other German agents and a number of
American offieers on the Patricia said
Fischer began to act strangely when
Ihe steamer was four days out of
Brest, and that he was conlined in a
stateroom, under guard. Earnest
Weimmer, chief of the German agents,
insisted that Fischer was mentally
unbalanced when he set the tire.
Exciting Time Aboard
Major Frank W. Cavanaugh, former
Dartniouth football coach, said the
doughboys had an exciting few min?
utes when it was learned that a Ger?
man had set lire to the ship, and that
member.-? of the crew were fighting
the blaze.
"We had no idea at the time," he
-aid, "how serious the tire was. The
German kept out of sight for the rest
of the voyage."
Fischer, according to Major Cava?
naugh, set the lire by manipulating
electrical wires when the man who was j
guarding his stateroom went to an- ]
other part of the ship. 'When the j
guard returned he found that Fischer |
had locked himself in the room and
that smoke was coming from the open
ings along the door.
The guard called to Fischer and re?
ceived no response. He called mem?
bers of the crew, who smashed down
the stateroom door and fiooded the
room with water and chemicals. The
bed clothing and the woodwork in a
corner of the cabin were burned.
Fischer was standing in tire stateroom,
apparently unconcerned. Offieers were
unable to obtain an explanation from
him.
Threw Gigarctte Case Into Sea
Captain Charles S. Windsor, of the
Tatricia, said the first time it was no?
ticed that Fischer was not, acting nor
mnlly was when he threw overboard a
silver cigarette case lent to him by an
American captain. The officer had of?
fered the German a cigarette. Fischer
ran to his stateroom after thi - act and
returned with a dollar bill which be at
tempted to give to the American.
Capta'n Windsor said Fischer vio
lently abuscd anything American. The
Germans were given free run of the
vessel and, except for Fischer, caused
r.o trouble.
The Patricia reached Commomvealth
pier shortly after - o'clock, coming up
the harbor under escort of the welcom
:t:g boata and amid a din of whistles.

VIENNA, April 17 (By Associated

PARIS, April 17.?The defence in thc

opened this morning by a statement
from the captain'3 attorney, "Donald
Harper, that the defence would show
that Captain Chamberlain did make un
official flights with a British squadron
on July 27 and 28, 1918, and would
produce corroboratinc circumstances
to prove thc accusation uttcrly without.
foundation that Captain Chamberlain
forged, preparcd or bad prepared fo:
him documents recording the flights.
Mr. Harper said it would be shown
that the defendant hnd no knowledge
of such documents until they were
shown to him by his superior officer
on August IL'. The aecused officer, the
attorney declared, claims nothing by,
through or under such reports except
that the accounts of tho flights and
combats attributed to him are sub
stantly correct, and would point out
that upon his return from the unofficial
flights he did not claim any publicity
for his feats, the publicity arising only
throujrh the action of somo one else.
Captain Chamberlain, his attorney
stated, denies all the charges.

Premier to Parliament
LONDON, April 17.?While opinions
are divided reirarding tho substance of
the address of Premier Lloyd .George
before thc House of Commons yester?
day, there is a general agrccment by
the London press that it was a great
parliamentary triumpli, as, indeed, was
shown by tho rousing cheers of his
audience and the cxpressions of in
dividual members in tho lobbies. With
the exception of the Laborite and
Northcliffe newspapers, nono of the
morning journals condemns the Pre

warrnly applaud it. These admit that
Mr. Lloyd George revcaled nothing of
the peace terms, nui they do not com
plain.
"The Telegraph," for instancc, says
that. his general account of the terms
will "give deep satisfaction," and adds
that he "dcmolished the whole struc
ture his critics built on his supposcd
departure from his pre-election
pledges."
"The Exprcss" deciares its full bclief
in the Premier's statement that his
pledges will br- found embodicd in tho
peace terms, and says that he retains
the complete confidence of. thc nation.
"The Graphic" i. equally favorable, and
says, incidcntally, that. Mr. Lloyd
George's statement "justifics the as
sumption that President Wilson has
abandoncd hia opposition, or alleged
opposition. to the aterner viewa >,f
those powcra which auffered most in
the war."
Those who attack individual mem?
bers of the peace conference when
th?- chief concern of every body is the
public interest are condemned by "The
Chronicle," which says: "If the peace

WASHINGTON, April 17,?Interpal
lations in the Finnish Diet have
brought a denial from the Prime Min?
ister that Finland intended to intcr

dispatches received here to-day from

from Helsingfors says the Finnish
voluntary corps has crossed the Rus?

purpose of safeguarriing Finland's in

fleeing to Finland to escape brutal

Relief Plan Not
Red Recognition
Programme Will Not Re?
sult in Diplomatic Rela
tions.Washington Beliej
New York Tribune
Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, April 17. While tho
State Department has refrained from
discussing the situation openly. it i
understood that officials of tho de?
partment hold the opinion that tho os
ecution of a food relief programme in
Russia will not involve any recog?
nition of the Bolshevist government;
nor will it compel the inauguration of
any form of diplomatic relations with
the Bolsheviki.
The probablc scheme to be followed,
it is understood, will bo tho granting
of liberal permissions to thc neutral
countries to supply Russia with food
under assurancos that their food stocks
will be replaced by tho Interallied Food
Commission, of which Herbert Hoover
is Director General.
Food will not bo sont into Russia
on a charitable basis, it is understood.
On the contrary tho neutrals will be
nuthorizod only to sell. jSinco Russia
i? without gold and her paper cur
roncy is practically worthless, this will
mean that there must, bo an exchange
of oommrtdities. This wojild tend, it.
is pointed out. to rohabiffcate Russia
eronomically by oliminat iitg thc con?
dition of industrial paralysii on which
Bolshevism has thrived.
It is believed here that while thc
Paris conference may undertake to se?
cure somo arrangement with thc Bol?
sheviki to cease hostilities in return
for food supplies. this will not be an
una'tcrable condition antoccdent to
fecding Russia. It is pointed out that
the Russian forces combating Bolshev?
ism have rofuscd to coa=r fighting.
To insist that the BolshevisFs lay
down arms under such conditions
would be impracticable, it is pointed
out. In consequence, it is believed
here that thc food relief programme
will prococd, even though tho Bolshev
lsts doclino to acco.de to thc request
that hostilities cease.

STOCKHOLM, April 17.?The Bol?
