An interesting part of Gen. Greely's
report is that which relates TO the tele-
graph censorship. He says:
There has been misapprehension
on the part of many that the signal
corps exercised press censorship dur

unfounded, as the chief signal officer
ignored all suggestions looking to in

meled publication of press matters,
even by the most sensational and I'M
patriotic of journals 1t may be added

most patriotic spirit, expressed freely
and frequently not only their willing
ness, but also their desire TO refrain
from the publication of any informa-
ton that would embarrass the admins
tration or be detrimental TO the success
of military operations"
