    PRIVATE HENRY'S DEATIT.
37ie Arctic Replorer Who teat Shot by Order
of Lieut. Greely.
XJtt Commanding Officer Mulcts Ofjlctal Jle-
.port Regarding the Same.
The following is Lieutenant Greely'a
official report of the execution of Private
Henry , made to the adjutant general :
"I have the honor to report that on June
0,1884 , at Cainp Clay , near Cape Sabin ,
Grinnell Land , it became necessary for mete
to order the military execution or Private
Charles B. Henry. Fifth cavalry. The
order wan given In writing on my undivided
responsibility , being deemed absolutely
essential for the safety of the surviving
members of the expedition. Ten had al
ready died of starvation , and two more Iny
at the point of death. Tie facts inducing
my action were as follows :
Provisions bad been sto'en in November ,
1883 , and Henry's complicity therein wna
more than buspectcd. On March 24 , 1884 ,
the party nearly perished from aspuyxU.
WUlo fccveral men were unconscious , and
while efforts were being made fur their
restoration , Private Henry stole about two
pounds of bacon from the mesa RIOIVH.
He was not only seen by the E-kimo
Jens and Edwards , but his stomach being
overloaded , he throw up the undigested
bacon. An open Investigation was held ,
and every member of the parly declared
him guilty of these and other thefts. A
clamor fur his life was raised , but was repressed -
pressed Ity mo. I put him under survell-
anc 5 until our waning strength rendeied
his physical services indi pens.ible. Later
he was found one day intoxicated , having
stolen liquor on hand for medicinal use. A
second time his life was demanded , but
again spired him. On June 5th a theft of
provision ? , on his pm , having' been re *
ported to mp , I had a conveisition wiih
him , in wulcu I appealed to bis practical
sen be , pointing out that it w.is i ce-sary to
our preservation. He promised entire re
formation , but distruntioc him , I issued a
written ordei thai ho should be shot if de
tected stealing. OnJuneCtb. he not only
stole part of the shrimps for our breakfus. ,
but vmiing unauthorised our winter c imp
stole eenain sel skins reserved for food. I
men ordered him 10 be shot. On bis person
was found it silver chronograph abandoned
by me at Fort Confer and stolen by him.
In his bag was found a large quan
tity of sealskins and a pair of seaiskin boots
stolen a few days before from the hunter.
Suspecting complicity on the part of several ,
T ordered his execution by three of the most
reliable men. After his death the ordtr
was read to the entire party and concurred
in by every member as being not oulv just
but essential to our safety. To avoid pub
lic scandal , I ordered thac no man speak of
tbe matter until the official report was made
of the facts. I have the honor to n quest
that a court of inquiry be ordered , or a
court martial be convened , should the hon
orable secretary of war deem it advisable.
In this case I have thought it best not to ask
written statements of the surviving mem
bers of the pa : ty for appendices to the re
port , lest I might seem to be tampering
with them. I have rot asked since our res
cue , on Jane 22d. whether their opinion : )
concurring in my action have changed or
not , leaving such questions to your action ,
if deemed requisite. I naturally regret that
circumstances imposed such terrible re
sponsibility upon me , but I an conscien
tious in the belief that I should have failtd
in my duty to the rest of my party had I noi
acted promptlv and summarily.

EIHUMING LIEUT. KISLINGIIURY'S BO0T.
Rochester ( N. Y.dispatch : The
most heart-rendering disclosures were
made in this city this morning regarding the
remains of Lieut. Kislmgbury , of the Arc
tic expedition , who died amid the Arctic
snow last June. It is established beyond
all question that cannibalism was resorted
to by the starving men of the Greely expe
dition , and shows that the lives of those
saved were preserved only by eating the
dead bodies of their companions. Lieut.
Kislingbury's relatives here were filled with
horrible doubts as soon as they learned that
disclosures lad been made in New York re
garding cinnlba'ism am > ng the members of
the expedition , and they determine , ! to'
learn the truth by exhuming the remains
and have them examined by competent
physicians. The services of an und .rt.-.ker
were secured , and tnis morning , wiih the
assistance of five men , he accompiishrd the
\vork of taking upthe casket from its icstiug
place. The casket was opened in the pres
ence of Frank KIslingbury and Jjbir P.
Kislingbury , brothers of the deceased ; Dr.
Charles Buckley , DF. . A. lt n'levine ,
Superintendent Sin son , Assistant Superin
I tend ! n § Mandevilie and two reporters of the
Post-Expre s. The work ot opening the
heavy iron recept ce : was found compira-
tively easy , all there was to do b ing 10 un
screw the fifty-two iron bolts which held
down the lid. The noiseless ea e with
which the latter was freed from its bed
showed there was * n absence of ga * in the
casket > > nd it was feared that there m'ght be
no body in the casket at all. Feeling his
way imp ILC nms of cotton waste which
filled tbe coffin to the top , the undertaker
soon exclaimed : "He is there. " Astronji
odor of alcohol , but no very strong sugges
tions of decay , emanated from the caskr.t.
Dr. Buckley , who hud put on a pair of
black feather gloves , uncovered the lower
portion of the coffin and then it appeared i s is
-f one of the leys the right one wasmifs-
ing , but when the waste was all removed it
became apparent that the limb was tied un
der tne left one. A basket was next ;
placed upon the fijor and the en
shrouded form tacen from it and
placed upon a taile. The unkcrtaker
and pbylscians now began and cut the
stitches and unwound the white fheting
which formed tbe first covering. The saett
was taken away. A tarred rope entwining
a blanket was cut and the work of taking off
this last covering began. S owly the blanket
was removed. The bKckened , flesh ess
face , showing marks of Arctic soil , bore no
semolance to tie dead man. Tne skin was
dried to tbe fkuil , and the sightless sockeis
and half-opened moufi grve the dead man
a look ot mute , appealing agony. The re
-r mains were completely identified as those or
Louis Kisltngbury. The ph > siciaus made .1
thorough examinatioa andtaerema BS were
then placed back into the ca-ket andflg-ia
lowered Into te grave. Returning to ihe
city tbe phjtkions made an affidavit in
which they t-ay : "Tiie body , in weigar ,
approxlmatf d in our opinion about fifty
pounds. On examination ot the head no
blgns of wounds or injuries wer vhsible.
Tne skm was not broken. The ears'and

At the trial of two brewers of Iowa City , on
the 13th , before a Justice of the peace , in
County township , nearby , a mob of two hun
dred thugs attacked the prosecuting lawyer ,
named W. H. Bailey , stripped him of his clo-
thingand tarred him. His life was narrowly
saved by Deputy Sheriff Stephen. The mob ,
many of them crazed by drink , tried to catch
the principal witness , named Swafford , and
would have hanged him had they found him.
A constable was seriously cut with knives.
The roughs went to Iowa City In the evening ,
and for an hour had possession of the streets ,
the sheriff's force and city police being pow
erless. After supper they found Swafforaand
knocked him ana his brother down on the
street. The mob would have killed Swafford
had tbe latter not been secreted in a store. A
meeting of citizens was held , the outrages vig
orously condemned , and special police ap
pointed for the night to maintain order. The
ringleaders of the riot are known and will bo
arrested.

Mr. and Mrs. Lee Larison , of No. 1818 Chica
go street , suffered the grievous loss on Satur
day evening last of their little six-year-old son
Georgie. The driver of one of Strang&Co.'s
four-horse teams drove into the alley on Nine
teenth street , in the rear of Mr. Strang's resi c.
dence , preparatory to stabling the animals.
Here he was accosted by the little boy for
permission to ride one of the animals. When
the team stopped at the barn-door , the boy
slid off as he had been accustomed to do , and
whether he was injured in the fall and tram
pled on , or whether the horse accidentally
kicked , is not definitely ascertained. At all
events , the poor little fellow received a dread
fully crushed skull , from which death ensued
within an hour , having been carried into Mr
Straug's house and his parents being called.
