Of Forester is sad blow to the press Of

of Forester has been served up, and warmi
ed over, and rehashed 10 many of the New

rest at Washington. His history was given
when bis arrest was announced by tele-
graph; repeated when he arrived 10 New
York, sgsin repested when his examination
took place, and then again on bis departure.
The same old story. And that story was
taken up by the Chicago papers when II

the prison authorities Of Illinois, repeated
when be arrived at Chicago, and again
when he departed for Joliet.
