HORACE GREELEY, EDITOR NEW YORK TRIB-
UNE, WHO WAS IMPATIENT FIFTY YEARS
AGO BECAUSE RICHMOND WAS NOT TAKEN.
renee for tidings Of q battle to be de-
layed two or three days, and sometimes
it was a week or more before accurate
details wrre known. Not only were
the facilities for gathering and trans
mitting news more meager than with
US, but the war disturbed cOmmunlca-
tions and made the work Of the cor
respondent hazardous and difficult. 1t
is not to be wondered at that both the
north and the south were filed with
grotesque and absurd reports. News
Of some kind the people must have,
and if they could not get the facts
there were plenty ready to fabricate.
In turn these unfounded rumors tend
ed to in1ame the passion and prejudice
on both sides.
Greeley's Nerves Relieved.
Mr.. Greeley was to have surcease
from the compromise nightmare, how

respondent had information that Pres
ident Lincoln did not favor compro-
mise, but had determined on vlgor-
Gus policy. During the next day or
two the report was confirmed, and the
Tribune was elated accordingly, 1t is
probable that this had been Lincsln's
attitude all along, but he was not max
ing everybody his confdant. The time
was one Of frightful suspense, and it
is not surprising that the nerves Of
even so great an editor as @orace
Greeley should become unruly and do
lhings.
An amusing illustration Of the kind
Of rumors that were on the wing APP
peared in the Tribune OF June 81.
There were duly set forth purported
extracts from letter written by John
Minor Bolts of Virginia Mr.. Bolts,

few votes for congress and proposed
to take his seat in the national house.

from excess Of zeal. All recognized his
honesty, his ability and his whole
hearted devotion to the Union. His
name will be remembered as long as
newspapers are published or as men
love liberty.
Martial Law In Baltimore.
Perhaps the most important event Of
the week ending July was the virtual
declaration Of martial law in Balti-
more by General N. r. Banks, who had

MED by the arrest Of Marshal George
=. Kane and later by tho police com
mlssloners OF the city, While Mary
land seemingly had been pacifed some
weeks earlier, there were still mu.ter-
ings. After the arrest Of Marshal
Kane and the police commissioners n
quantity OF arms and war supplies was
found concealed under the floors and
elsewhere In the city hall. Colonel
John Il. Kenly was placed IN com
mand. There was naturally intense
excitement, and fears were expressed
that the police force would not serve
under martial law. These fears proved
groundess for the most part. but Colo.
mel Kenly deemed It wise 10 swear In
several hundred Union sympathizers.
This practically ended the attempt
Of southern sympathizers to take Mary
land out Of the Union. Many Of them
left the state and enlisted in the Con-
federate armies. II was during this
period Of turmoil and suspense that
James Ryder Randall, a native OF the
state, but at this time n professor Of
literature in Louisiana, wrote the noble
song Maryland"

There were no very important ac-
tlons during the week. On June q
the Freeborn landed n company of men
at Matthias point, on the shore Of the
Potomac. These were engaged most
Of the day in throwing up breastworks.
Just as they were ready to return to
the boats they were attacked by sew
eral hundred Confederates. The Free
born began a bombardment under
which the men safely got on board
some Of them swimming, but Captain
james II Ward OF the Potomac tlo-
tilla, who was with the Freeborn. was
killed. From this and previous en-
gagements the Federals learned one
important lesson-that it was waste
of time, ammunition and life to bonl-
bard these points along the Potomac
unless there was n sufficient land force
to hold them.
Lew Wallace Fools Enemy.
After Colonel Lew wallace's victory
at Romney, in western Virginia, he re-
turned to Cumberland and there for
a month was threatened by a superior
Confederate force who cut his commu-
nications and isolated him. With only
a few rounds of ammunition and scaut
supplies, Wallace's position became
desperate. He sent his sick to Bed
ford, Pa, and started as if to follow
them When outside the town, how
ever, he faced about ready to give bat
tie. This movement disconnected "A

This was printed in italics and small

and was caustic IN its criticisms. Cen
eral Robert Patterson II accused OF
"moping" because he did not follow
up and attacl, General Joseph T. John
ston after the evacuation Of Uarper'
Ferry. Editor Horace Greeley showed
almost equal impatience with Genera
Scott. Even the administration Wa
not immune from his pen.
One of the things that aroused the
Tribune editors ire was the talk OF
compromise At this late day the
peace discussion had nearly all died
out, but there was still an occasional
rumor Of southern delegations in
Washington to offer terms Of settle
ment These reports were as so many
red rags to Mr.. Greeley. One Of his
standing slogans was NO compromise

were by no means confined TO the
north In Virginia they were calling
General Scott q traitor" and an 'arch-
traitor" (Scott was a native Of Vir-
ginia) and Lincoln an illinois ape"

quarrels restricted to the north. Gree
ley may have scolded because there
was not more energy displayed at
Washington, but this very week came
q report that General Robert L. Lee
had threatened to resign because Of
differences with Jefferson Davis and
General Beauregard.

In the Tribune this was Offset to some

there was some idea Of news values

was a better newspaper man, accord

term, than his correspondents or head

THE RED MILL"

Martin and Emry Co.'s production
of The Red Mill" this season is pre-.
scented on a scale of lavishness that
dwarfs the organization of last sea
son. The scenery has been built upon
the largest scale, the costumes all
replaced by new and costly designs,
while the company of principals have
beer most carefully selected and en-
braces many names familiar to the
atergoers. The chorus of forty is said
to be one of the best ever organized.
1t is safe to assume that the produc-
ton at the Grand opera house De-
cember 4 will prove one of the most
brilliant theatrical events of the sea-
son.
