Cooperation Of
Roads and.Fleet

The cooperation of fleet and mill
tary railroad was excellent. After
the capture Of Savannah General
Sherman's command was promptly
met there by great fleet conveying
clothing, tentage, subsistence for
soldiers and animals, wagons, har
ness, ammunition and all else neces-
sary. Railroads were constructed
to Kinston and Goldsboro from Will
mington and Morehead City, each C.
distance of ninety-five miles.
These were but a portion of the
activities. For at the same time
great transportation operations were
being carried on in the West. Other
large armies were being moved and
supplied. The singular fact is that
few complaints have been recorded
as to the lack of supplies, and the
record bears no evidence Of ineffi-
cheney in the producing end of the
war at Washington.
While the Civil War was not
waged across the sea, as is our part
in the World War, transportation
by sea was an important factor, as
was the maintenance of the block
ade of the southern ports. The
shipping industries were greatly &C
tolerated. Vast supplies must be car
ried from the New England ports to
the Georgia and the Louisiana sea-
boards.
The transfer by water of the Six
teenth Army Corps from Eastport,
Tenn.s to New Orleans was another
: feat of transportation. Three days
= were required to embark the expe-
V dition on forty steamers, the fleet
j, making the distance of 1880 miles
5 in thirteen days. The transfer by
I sea from City Point, Va, to Texas
i of the Twenty fifth Army Corps
also in 1865, called for the transpor-
e tation of $4,000 men, with artillery
: ammunition, ambulances, wagons
2 and subsistence for the men, to-
n gether with 1000 horses and mules
t The embarkation took place early
d in June, 1868, and the debarkatlor
two weeks later at Brazos. This
e movement required fleet of fifty
/ seven ocean steamers of a total ton
t mage of 56,9S7 tons.
:, 1t is a mistake, therefore, to re
d gard the present overseas expedition

the military roads. He was vice
president of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, and brought to this national
service fine energies. Andrew Car
negie was one of his lieutenants, and
one of the first feats of the two was
to bridge the Potomac in seven days
so as to get the Baltimore & Ohio
across to Virginia.
First Great Troop
Movement by Rail
During the Civil War there were
employed 419 engines and $3.50 cars,
operating over 2,105 miles of mill
tary railroad. Of this mileage AZ
miles were laid or relaid and IS
miles of bridges were built. These
figures suffer by comparison with
modern figures, but it must be re-
membered that the railroad was an
innovation, an experiment in war.
A hint of the great troop move
ment by rail may be gained from
these figures: From November !,
1868, to October 81, 1864, one year.
626,126 men were forwarded to the
field and 2Ge,1l4 were furloughed or
discharged and transported to their
homes. The aggregate movement
amounted to 3S7 ,24O men, embrace
ing, independently Of recruits, 495
, regiments and 10 batteries. In the
following year 1,064,0S4 men were
distributed from ,l26 regiments and
PAL batteries.
General Sherman's army, en-
bracing 100000 men and $4,000 AMI
mails, was furnished with supple:
: from a base $50 miles distant owe
: single-track railroad located
mainly in the country of an active
t enemy. This thin steel line was
maintained for months until At
: lanta was secured and supplies fol
0 new campaign had been placed
S there. Sherman's army then moves
}. through Georgia to the sea, accom-
: panied by thousands of beef cattle
: together with trains embracing
h 5000 wagons filled with war sup
e plies, all delivered by rail to At
lanta from the North.

critical hours at distant points, now
in Louisiana and now in Virginia,
extensive quantities of provisions
and medical and hospital stores, in
addition to arms and ammunition
supplies by the ordnance division.
The department supplied the
army with 100000 horses and $780,
600 mules, a tremendous cavalcade
of animals for the tournament. In
1868 the armies required one-half
as many animals as they did
soldiers
The World War introduces the
power truck and develops the rail
road. The latter, however, was put
to excellent use in the Civil War,
though the cavalry, the artillery and
the quartermaster's trains called for
great numbers of draft animals. The
army horse, for that matter, is still
in evidence in Europe.
The railroads were new in 1861.
They had just proved themselves as
economic factors, and new projects
were fast forming for penetrating
the Far West with steel rails. Tc
warfare they were, indeed, a nov
city. An army that moved by raj
found here it's first important expo
sition.
Not to be handicapped by the i'm
portunities of private owners, Presi
dent Lincoln had Congress vest If
him the power to take military pos
session of the railroads by the act Of
January 81, 1862 But it was foun6
to be sufficient to hold this power
and unnecessary for the most par
to exercise it.
A railroad military organization
was set up, much like the origina
railroad war board of 1917, il
part voluntary and in part a stat
administration. Colonel Thomas A

STOCKH HOLM. December H.
A scheme for gigantic German
Russian alliance to dominate Europe
is being put forward in all parts OF
Germany by tho advocates OF the old
"Mittel-Europ' plan. The best sum-
mary OF the new scheme which has
yet appeared is published in a Swed
ish newspaper. the Gothenburg Tidnin-
gen. from the pen OF German propa-
gandist. lilo outlines the project as
follows:
The future Central Europe Russian
block among other aims. will have
before 1t the mighty task Of bringing
tho great riches OF Russia into the
world markets. For this purpose there
arc two natural windows on the west;
one is Hamburg, the other Copen-
hagen. These two towns will become
tho great markets OF the world. The
produce OF Southwestern Russia will

waterways to Hamburg; the riches
of Central and Northeastern Russia
will go by the Dvina and FolGa to
the Baltic and Copenhagen. In this
manner an interchange OF produce
and manufactures will be realized
between Scandinavia, the Central
European block. Russia, and tho whole
Mohernm edan world.

friendly welcome by the Baltic peoples.
who hall them as liberators. Germany's
occupation OF this territory will have
results that no peace conference can
prevent. German has opened up pros
poets of Northern Mediterranean. the
waters OF which are now under her
control. Moreover. Germanys plan for
activity etill further north arc being
materially assisted by the friendliness
OF the Finnish people. While Finnish
Socialists are fraternizing with Rus
sian soldiers. Germany is winning the
friendship OF the middle classes and
the peasants of Finland.
Germany. however, Is meditating
neither the incorporation OF Finland
in the German empire nor any kind
OF political alliance. but rather an eco

Even tho western powers cannot help
Russia here. Yet Russia. must, do her

not dispense with the powerful Cen

be to Russia's advantage to even try
to fight her own way even with tho

map shows this. Russia, once peace
has been restored. will gradually in
cline herself to the Central European
block. This will DO in keeping with
her natural economic development.

above all procure an outlet and mar
