Horace Greeley Insano.
A morning paper publishes to-day a
story, current In newspaper circles for
the past week, that Horace 6reeley Is
insane, and says he Is now an inmate
Of the asylum at White Plains. The
same paper publishes an Interview
with Whitelaw Reid, In which that
gentleman Is made. to say, In answer to
questions. that Greeley has been under
medical treatment some time; he al
WAYS was eccentric In manner, and
very likely might be said by some to
be stark mad, but he simply was nerv-
ously PROSTATE. For months prior to
the death of his wife he did not sleep
an hour a night, and since her death
he has been In the same condition.
In answer to the qu~estion-"is it true
that Greeley drew a knife on n Of
of his friends ?"-Reed answered /: ~
tell you, he Greeley has done nothing
which, to those who know him, seems
strange. He always was an eccentric
man at best, and acts as If lie were
queer ; but now, when nervously pros
rrated, strangers might think him
crazy. l have seen him positively fu-
rious when a first proof was brought to
him, instead of a revised one, but l
know | understand him." Reid said
that Greeley, Notwithstanding the
loss of sleep and appetite, was In gen.
eral in good health, and made a re-
quest OF a reporter to say that he was
only nervously PROSTATE. There was
no good in saying more. Greeley has
had enough to worry him, and what
he needs is quiet aud rest.
