Col. John S. Mosby on the Euro
pean War.
Washington, D. C. t Oct. 13. "If I
was there with 10,000 Cossacks and
same of my old officers w ho served un
der me in our war, I'd break up all
communication between the German
array and Berlin, and 1 would run Wil
liam back to his capita! in a hurry.”
This was the statement made to-day
by Col. John S. Mosby, late of the Con
federate army and the leader of Mosby's
men, who caused so much trouble for
they did not seem to know how to act
when the unexpected happened.
"And, by the way, I captured a French
general once. He was the only French
man my command took during the war.
His name was Uurtie—Gen. Duffle. He
had been in Africa, chasing Arabs, and
when he joined the Union army they
sent him to chase me. I turned the ta
ble" on him. and Gen. Sheridan later
said that it was a good th.ng that he
had been captured."
"How did you come to organize your
hand?” was asked.
"It was a matter of evolution,” Col.
.Mosby replied. "I believe that every
thing is due to evolution and nothing to
creation. I began my service at the
outbreak of the war as a private. The

He pointed south toward the I’otomac
and Virginia.

his later service as United States Con
sul in China.
"The communication of an army is
its vulnerable point,” be continued. "If
1 was over there in Europe I would do
on a large scale what 1 a complished on
a smaller scale in the Shenandoah val
ley, when I cut off Gen. Sheridan's
communication; I had only 300 men
with me at that time.
"I do not understand why they do not
move with their cavalry. It vexes me,

nsw as 1 hud during our war.
“I don’t look to see the war last more
than six months. It is such a tremend
ous affair that it will break down of ila
own weight. I blame Germany for the
whole thing. She. has been manufac
turing this war machine for years, and
she just wanted to try it. Now she has
done so."
"What do you think of this war aB
compared with our Civil War?” I asked
Col. Mosby.
"Our Civil War? What do you mean,
by ‘our Civil War?' ” he replied. "It
wasn’t a Civil War. There was no such
thing as a Civil War.”
"War Between the States, then?"
“No, it wasn't u War Between the
Stales. It was a geographical and sec
tional war between peoples of the same
country. I call it simply ‘our war. ’ That
covers the situation.' ’
"Then, what drt you think of the Eu
ropean war as compared with ‘our
war?’ " I asked.
"They are making no progress in Eu
rope We made progress every day on
one side or the other. As near as I can
determine they are simply killing. The
tide doesn't ebb or (low a single hit.
We advanced or retreated arid were not
in the struggle simply to kill. And with
bow much humanity on both sides our
war was conducted! It presents the
greatest contrust.
"The war must bring out some great
general*, but it has riot done so yet. It
is evident they haven't a Itobt. I.. Lee
or Stonewall Jackson. They would huve
done something long before this. As it
is, the forces are just killing. The ob
ject of v.ar is not to kill. It is to disa
ble the military power. I have written
much on our war., but I have never
dwelt on the bio,sly sc,ns*- I have
written more on the scientific aapect.
"Sitting Bull would never have
thought of throwing bombs from Zeppe

and is horrible. In our war we never
attacked tile n oi conibntants. and 1 can
not understand what the Germans ure

of the secrets of the success ot me

were the heat that were in the army.
"The impression seems to have gone
abroad in the North that my men were
not uniformed and that we went skulk
ing through the country in disguise.
This is not so. We were the best uni

I wanted them to, and we were usually
successful. When we went into a light,
we went in for all we were worth, and
if we were scattered, as I indicated be
fore, it did not take U3 long to get to

Long-Session Congress Ends.
Washington, D. C.. Oct.. 24 —After
being in continuous session since the in
auguration of Woodrow Wilson—a pe
riod of nearly nineteen months—the
Sixty-third Congress to-day adjourned
its second session. Prolonged efforts to
procure cotton relief legislation finally
collapsed. Leaders in this movement
agreed to adjourn, however, on condi
tion that pending cotton relief meas
ures would have the right of way when
Congress reconvenes Dec. 7.
No more than fifty members of the
House and less than a quorum of the
Senate were present when the gavels
fell on adjournment. The end was ac
complished through the passing of a
concurrent resolution ending the session
at 1 p. m , but clocks were turned ahead

The Senate's adjournment probably
was the most undemonstrative in its
hi .tory.
In announcing abandonment of their
filibuster for cotton legislation, Sena-
t ir Hoke Smith, of Georgia, and Repre
sentative Henry, of Texas, told the
Senate and House it was apparent no
more than ‘l' Jonlm uould be procured for consider
ation of the cotton measures, and fur
ther obstructive tactics might injure
chances of uitimat” success. Represen
tative Henry predicted thut Congress
i would he convened in extraordinary
s-Msion by the middle of November,
when the fight could be resumed. Sen-,
ator Smith introduced a bill for a $250,-
000,000 Government bond issue to buy
I cotton, and declared:
"We huve (lone all we could fur the
suffering people of the South. We
have had out day in court for this ses-
1 si in, nn.i I would have no excuse for
further filibustering at this time. I
shall feci that I hevadone my duly by
simply voting against the adjournment
resolution.' ’
Tne Hou-e adopted a resolution
authorizing, the appointment of a com
mittee to investigate cotton conditions
in the Sou h and report possible fes-
tufes for Federal aid by December 15.
On the committee were Representatives I
