New YORK, March 27-The Trihunes
Washington special says the city has

the War Department has no such infor-
nation.
The Herald dispatch, speaking of these
rumors, says they are premature. The
President telegraphed from the front
at IL A. NJ yesterday, that our lines had
been advanced on the left so as to include
those previously occupied by the enemys
skirmishers, and that in this movement
between 400 and 500 rebels were captured
