Sheridan states that the misplacement of a semi-colon in the N.Y. Tribune interview (re- printed in Saturday's Star) makes him charge Gen. Rosser with the performance of acts of which he Was innocent. Gen, Sheridan was reported as saying, ‘‘We stripped the enemy of everything he had captured; all his guns except one,” &c., and he thus corrects it: “Now, if you will move the semi-colon after the word ‘captured’ and place tt after the word ‘had,’ you will relieve Gen. Rosser of the charge of having captured guns from us at any time when he was s operating In the Valley—at least when I was around.” UNION VETERANS PASS RESOLUTIONS. John A.
