order. The southern part OF Illinois is in

that citizens in the district were giving
moral aid to treason, he orders Post Com
manders and Provost Marshals to arrest
'all persons who shall in any manner ex-
press their sympathy for those who are in
arms against the United States Govern
ment. When arrested they shall be emit.
tied to an immediate preliminary examin-
alton; but if proof be given of disloyal ex-

that they have in any way aided deserters
and prevented their arrest, they shall be

District Military prison at Columbus. Ky.
"Officers aud soldiers arrcsting deserters

and there can be no distinction recognized
between rebel in battle and a traitor re-
sisting the laws at home"
