INTERVIEWS WITH THE BOYS of the IteKlment Prnlne Tlicli Men mill Toll of tlio Iliittle * Tlio > * l''o unlit. . SAN FRANCISCO , July 31. ( Special. ) - The officers of the First regiment talket freely In answer to < iucstlonn. All were lavIsh - Ish In their praises ot the men of the regl- mcnt , and gave glowing accounts of theli bravery In action. Colonel Harry D. Mul ford talked as follows : "I nm honest In saying that I do not be- llovo n better regiment than the First Ne braska was ever organized. Tht men hav < borne what It now seems Inconceivable te me that the human frame can endure. Whet there has been action there has never been i semblance of complaining. The boys have done guard duty all night and then foughi all day. "Tho hard work of the campaign began thi day It was landed , From that day to 4'ae day Calumplt fell the regiment was always at the extreme end of one wing or the othei of the army. H was the flrat regiment tt enter Manila 'when It fell last August , ane It was the regiment to begin the forwari movement last February. "Our'lc-sses did not begin until the > Febru ary campaign. Of our total of slxty-sl ) killed In battle or dead from wounds , onlj ono mahwas slain previous to that time The First Nebraska , aided by a part ot c battalion of the Colorado volunteers , tooV the waterworks by assault , a six-mile ad- | j j vancp through the hardest kind of ground I i dense' Jungle fejr the most part. ' ' * ' "Without" w'hatsoevcr any assistance we held th'o works , extending from the pumpltff station at ono end to the reservoir at the othciv for over n month. Wo had more mei wounded during this time than at any othei period , sometimes two nnd four men a daj to a company being more or I > MS scrlouslj hurt. "Captain Holllngworth of Company C was wounded on February 17 In ix skirmish , fiomo company or another In the regiment had a fight every day while we hold the position. The regiment , was divided so thai two companies were at the reservoir , one on ( ho road hair way to the pumping station , and the rest at the pumping station Itself , There was lighting at all hours of the da ) and night. "When the movement toward Mnl'fos be gan our plight did not better. Possibly II grew worse , as we always were at the front , Captain Lee Forby of Company G was killed on March 27 nt San Francisco del Monte , a plnco seven miles from Mnlolos , Ho fell at the flrnt volley that was tired , dying In the hospital two days later. "Colonel Stoteenberg and Lieutenant SIS' bon were killed on April 23 , and the battle In which wo lost them was the worst we had In the campaign. This forward move ment told as heavily on us na It did on the other regiments. The heat grew to bo In tense , the hcnt prostrations numerous anil the general health of the mem bad. "Things .wero . the worm with us when Ca- himplt fell. Less than 300 men remained for duty , nnd seinjn companies did not con- tnln fifteen lit men. When wo got back tt Manila wo were put on outpost duty , never theless ! , and there wo remained until we wore loaded on the Hancock. ' "Jhe regiment h.is picked up wonderfully aboard the transport , and the men will BOOT be as good as they ever were. A majority of them are ( It for service now. 'I don't mind saying , jiiht the same , thai they don't want any more sevlce. Only ono man re-enlisted when the chance waf offered. 1 don't care about criticising any one , only I think thin regiment got more thun Its fair share of hard knocks. ' It Isn'l the fault of other people that we are as well us wo are ) today. "I do not belloxu that the war will be ended in n hurry , though I think the Insurg ents are beaten. The trouble la to catcli them. There arc no roads , nnd they know the paths. They can light us from the brusli 'for ' a long time. "I know that my men do not ndmlro Genera - era If Otl . He has worked them hard and thev know It , but undoubtedly ho bollovet h'liuBalf Justified. I do think that before vic tory can result there must bo more decisive movements than wo have had. " KiiKor Kcucrlln-N llnltlr of fliiliiKini , Lieutenant Colonel Kagcr described the liattlo of Qulngua im follows : "On the morning of April 2,1 Major Hell In advancing with the , fourth t cavalrjr , landed In a Filipino ambush. One man -wiu killed nnd several were wounded , The cav alry was driven back so rapidly that they left the dead man behind. If wo had knowr then that ho was dead disastrous Qulngua likely never would have been fought. "Tim cavalry was forced directly back or us. It was In a tight place and If we "Good Beginnings Make Good Endings/ ' You me nuking a. good beginning tahen you commence to fake Hood's Szrsap&riUa for .my trouble of your blood , stomach , kidneys or lever. Persistently Uken this gre&t medicine iui7/ bring you the good end ing of perfect health , strength And vigor. had not been there only speed could have caved It I3ut for the supposed wounded man In the hands of the enemy wowould have covered their retreat rather than ad vanced. Only elx compancs , K , I , U , D , M and H , got Into the light. "At the beginning I commanded three ol them and Captaki , now Major , Kllllau three. Colonel Stotscnbcrg was not then on the field. We deployed over the rice paddles to tho.'plnco whcro the cavalryman fell. Hlfi body was gone the Filipinos had taken tt. Ahevijlrof us wo could sec two trenches. ' "As ' 'wo prepared 'to make the assault floloflel Stotsenberg came onto the field. He took'command of Companies D , M and II at the right. I was to take one trench , he the other. Whllo we were forming Lieuten ant Wadsworth was shot and a minute later his rescuer , Sergeant Storchcr , was killed. On my sldo Lieutenant Slsson was killed about the same time. We were nearly up to the trenches -when the colonel fell , shot through the head. He was a bravo man nnd a remarkable soldier. "I do not like the present situation In the Island of Luzon , from the towns we have taken It loolm as if we had advanced a lot. As a matter of fact , we have only got fifty miles up the most open valley on the leland , a valley through which runs the only rail road on the Island , 120 miles , terminating nt Dagopam , San Fernandlno. The limit o [ our advance Is about nn even flfty miles nnd It took us four months to get there. "Tho people of this country do not realize the size of the Island of Luzon. It Is larger than many ot our sjtates 200 by 400 miles. Outside of the valley I have mentioned this vast tract has not a single road I mean wagon road. The bamboo Jungle can be traveled only 'by ' the Filipinos , who know Its narrow paths. The armyl henceforth has got to make every road over which It marches and , while It Is making Ita way. It will be menaced by persistent guerrilla war fare nnd will lose heavily. "I do not believe the Insurrection will be broken for several years , though a rebel army may not again take the field. Army organization Is not the Filipinos' strong point. "I don't blame General Otis for letting us take the hard knocks he did. It was a plain business proposition. We were' going homo and could build up. The regulars -will have to stay oii' without chan6e to 'recuperate. Ho got value received from us and now It Is the turn of the regulars. " Injor Taylor * ' Iitcnu. Major Taylor said : "General Otis , from the standpoint of a commanding general , jnay have been warranted In getting the most possible out of the regiments certain to bo the first taken away from him. If volunteers had not been killed regulars would have been. He has logic on his aide. aide."Tho "Tho policy resulted In giving the Flrat Nebraska a diet of battles more regular than the Issue of rations. Some portion of the regiment was In a light every day , for four months. In one month , In addition to what may bo termed company lights , the regiment as a tody participated In five skirmishes hard enough to bo called bat tles. "It Is natural enough that the volunteers should decide that It was time some one else worked a little and they were given a rest. rest."I "I commanded the Omaha company until I became a major , on the death of the colonel at Qulngua. The hoys In that com pany are like brothers to me. The com pany has done splendid work frfom. the first. It was put Into the trenches before Manila on August 12 , a year ago , two nights after two Pennsylvania companies were driven out from the same spot. Company L stuck there nnd was the advance 'guard of the regiment Into Manila. "When we were defending the water works last February the company was sta tioned at the pumping house. During the advance from the reservoir It was on the extreme left oi the line , close to the nig gers. Private DItmer got the first one , killIng - Ing him fifteen feet away , "At San Francisco del Monte , where Cap tain Forby was killed , the members of the company buffered severely from the heat , there being several prostrations. Two were killed In the fight Itself. " Hnjor Kllltnm TnlUx. Major Kllllam talked as follows In an Interview : "The army Is bound to put the Insurrec tion down , but It will take a lot more sol diers than wo have got over there. The bigger force Is needed not for fighting , but for garrison purposes. It takes a lot. nf nol- dtcra to defend a country from the attacks of scattering bands. I think that 50,000 sol diers are sufficient , provided that they are supplied with light artillery and are rightly managed , "Hundreds of lives have been uselessly sacrificed In the last few months because the authorities persisted In accomplishing through men and rides what a rapid-lire gun would have done In half the time without any of the loss of life. It Is a shame and I an outrage that thla Is true. Hvery ono j knows the fact. Some one la responsible { and. should be held so , The lives of men j are not lightly to be throA'n away. ' . "The need .Is for , roount4iln ba'tte'rles , guns of sma.ll caliber that ' , 'can be packed upn the back of a mule. There are no roads and heavy guns cannot bo employed. The light ones answer Just as well for clearing a | Jungle. I "As a commanding officer , the naddeat ' thing of the year for me was the death of young Lieutenant Slsson on the clay Colonel Stotsenberg was killed' , another were blow for me , The lieutenant , who belonged 'to Company K , had been promoted recently from the ranks and I was deeply Interested In him. The day was hot , terribly so , and wo were charging up hill when he was ehot. I saw him fall and ran to him , but when I turned him over I saw that he wa dead. "Everything turned black to me , but we were advancing on the double quick , and there was no time to linger , I detailed a man to take the body to the rear and kept on , "Before I reached the top I learned that the colonel was dead , That waa a sorrowful day for the regiment.

Governor Cand- Icr tonight Issued an appeal to the people cf Georgia < to Join hands and put an end to mob violence la the elate. The governor be lieves ' .hat the only way to restore a con dition of peace and tranquillity und to brlnz c-n end to the lawlessness that has been manifested In different parts of the state Is for the people to uphold the courts , aid them to bring to speedy justice all crim inals and by the strong force of a virile public sentiment bring punishment to law breakers of all kinds , The governor tells of the reproaches heaped upon the state by tbo repeated out breaks and says : The purity of the fair mothers and daughters of Georgia must nnd shall be preserved and at the game times the liven and liberties of nil the lawabldlng negroes In Georgia must nnd shall be protected. The good of both races and tbo fair name of the state demand thin. The ordinary processes of the law are amply suftlclent to punish all crimes. Our Judgrn are pure nnd Incorruptable , Our juries are composed of our most Intelligent , upright men , who seldom make mistakes. The mob often makes mistakes and the In nocent are made to suffer with the guilty , U never knows where to stop , but after punishing the guilty , drunk with the blood of one victim , It tblrfjs for the blood ot another and often sacrifices on the nltar ot vengeance thoao who are guiltless of any crime. Wo munt away with the mob. We must re-enthrono the law. Wo must rein state the altar of reason nnd tear down the altar that passion has erected. Wo must do this in the Interest of tbo white men ot Georgia and In the Interest of the negroes ot Georgia and for tbo fair panic ot Georgia and to protect the virtue of the women of Georgia. f would appeal to alt officers of the state , civil and military , to remember that they are guardians of the peace and happiness of the people of this state. It Is their duty to apprehend and bring to justice all who vlulrto the law. 'MILITIA ' DISPERSE A MOB Troops Charge Into a Crowd of Olevalftnd Striken with Set Bayonets.
