salient points OF interest. The subject which
will probably attract the widest interest Is the
discussion of the Treatment Of Prisoners at
Camp Morton" indianapolis. during the war,
a discussion begun by DR.. John A. Wyeth's
article in the April Century. The present
number contains reply to that article by Col.
W. R. Holloway. who during the war was pri-
vate secretary to Governor Morton. and the re-
ply has the Endorsement of committee of the
Grand Army Of the Republic appointed to in
vestigate the subject. The article consists
largely of personal statements Of officers Of

ly grouped by the writer to meet DR.. Wyeth's
charges.
