The right of his troops to rob the Southern enemy of his chattels, which included slaves. This answer here is a little unjustified.
The more appropriate answer to this is; that Lincoln freed the slaves that were in rebellion against the Union. He justified that he still supported Slavery, but with the rebellion in hand to protect the Union and confederacy. He did not intend for the troops to rob the places of the Southern.

The Emancipation Proclamation. It did not actually free the slaves at that time, because Lincoln could not enforce any laws in the South.
