The MauSer Pistol.

Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. 11.-Dr. J. D.
Griffith Of this city has just copleted
for the government a test of the Mauser
pistol in use by German cavalry and
under consideration for adoption by the
United States. The test was made not
only with targets, but with animals, and
Griffith of this city has just completed
$50 to SEQ yards the Mauser pistol is the
most deadly weapon of its kind ever in
vented, and that up to the maximum
range tried it is practically as good in
the hands of marksmen as a kragJor-
gensen, a Lee or Mauser rifle. The pistol
fires 10 shots without reloading and can
be emptied with accuracy of aim in less
than three seconds. The cartridges are
80 caliber and are propelled by smokeless
nitro powder. The bullets weigh s.
grams each and have a lead core sur
rounded by nickel-plated copper jacket.
1t is said to be probable that as result
of DR.. Griffith's tests the government will
adopt the Mauser pistol.

A Vigorous Campaign.

Chicago. Sept. 11.-Captain ]. j. Case,
formerly of the Second Oregon volun-
teers and member of the staffs of Gen.
erals Merritt, Otis and Lawton, who is
visiting here, says that he thinks a vigor-
Gus fall campaign will put an end to the
war in the Philippines.
.'It takes a good deal to demoralize a
Filipino army and it would be a rash
statement to declare that the insurgents
are now demoralzed, but it IS certain
that they run earlier in battle than was
formerly the case. 1t is the general opin-
ion of the officers that if General Otis
were to confine himself to one depart
ment the war would progress more salts
factorily. General Otis makes a first
class civil governor. In the field there
are several instances where he recalled
the troops after accomplishing their
work. l think all the casualties are
faithfully reported by General Otis"
