How Did the Rebels Get the News? – 5

The NYT sure has nerve. They loudly proclaim the Union strategies and publish information useful to the enemy like strength and casualty lists. Captain Rhodes was recently mentioning the trade of coffee, tobacco, and newspapers with the Rebel pickets. The authorities in Richmond are getting the papers only a few days after publication.
