The Emporia news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1859-1881, 1864-05-28

On the 18th inst, the New York World
and Journal of Commerce published what
purported to be proclamation by the Pres
ident, giving very Responding review of
this springs campaign, and ordering out
100000 more troops. That proclamation
was base forgery. Next day the War
Department suspended the above name pa
pers, placing military guard over both Of
fees, seized the Offices of the Independent
Telegraph Company in New York, Phila-
delphia and other places. and sent the ops-
rators who had telegraphed the bogus procla-
nation over the country, to Fort Lafayette.
Since then the operators have had an ex-.
animation, when they made affidavit that
they knew nothing of the forged proclama--
ton, and they were Immediately set at lib
erty. The publishers of the two newspa-
pers having also made proper amends, were,
after suspension of two days, allowed to.
continue their business. The soldiers still
remain at the Office of the Independent Tel.
egraph Line, and it will be held till further
orders. The origin of the disgraceful ca
nard has not yet been discovered, though
the theory given is, it was invented to aid
in the gold speculation.

Virginia correspondent says Gen. Crooks

Gen jenkins, who was wounded and cap
tured, has since died.
The following is dispatch from the War
Department, May 90, 10 p. M. to Major
General Dix On Friday evening General

pose of compelling Lee to abandon his po-
silion at Spottsylvania, the details of which,
for obvious reasons, should not be made
public. Il has thus far progressed success
fully. Longstreet's corps started south at
