The WASHINGTON Chronicle saws:

Horace Greeley in New Orleans!' is
the almost startling announcement by tele-
graph and yet he is as safe there as IN the
streets of New York; but it cost thousands
of lives and millions of treasure to make it
''safe" for him to visit that city. Ten years
ago had he ventured there the announce
ment would have been: Horace Greeley
hanged to a lamppost!"
