ing q survey OF the hArbOr there and es-
timAtes, preparatory to the erection and
establishment of proper defenses. From

The Dayton Journal says
The newspapers are circulating para
graph purporting to be an extract from
Mai Gen. Geo. H. Thomas official re-
port of the Battle Of ChickAmaugA, which
represents that be "would have defeated
the enemy Sunday evening if same per-
son of higher authority than /, had not
ordered my ammunition train away"
This is misrepresentation. In the
rough draft Of this report, Gen. Thomas
said his train was ordered sway by
Hsome unlqo,vn person, The word sun
known" was subsequently erased, and
IAN a,sl0Tze9'' person was substituted.
It thus stands. Until the question Is de-
cided who was this authorized person"
criticism should be dumb. 1t must have
been done through the orders Of Assis-
tant Secretary Of War Dams, or Gen. Ro-
secrans.
