THE ARCTIC TRAGEDY.

A FEARFUL CHARGE AGAINST

GREELY'S MEN.

HORRIBLE STORY OF CANNIBALISM.

.New York, August 12.—The "Times" prints the following in double-leaded type;— Written documents now in possession of the Xavy Department lit Washington add to he story of the miserable human sufferings already published in connection with the Grcely Arctic relief expedition. Tho facts have been in the possession of Secre tary Chandler for nearly three week*, but so closely have they been guarded, and ho strictly have the naval officers and sailors maintained the silence Imposed upon them, that not eVen an inkling of the true and horriblo Condition of affair* has yet reached the public ear. For tho fake of humanity and the American people the army authorities are endeavour ing to keep tho matter hushed, but in an efficient investigation, which is almost sure to como, tho facts will all undoubtedly come out, It will be remembered that in Commander Schley's lirst despatch to Secretary Chandler announcing tho find ing of the Greely party he, said y— " I would urgently suggest that the bodies now on board be placed in motallic cases hero for safer and better transportation in a sea way. This appears to me to bo imperative." SocrotaryChandloitelogiaphed :— " Prepare them according to your judgment and bring them homo." It took some days to prepare tho iron caskots, which, all bolted and riveted, wore remarked at this timo by ox poriencod officers would hardly have been necessary for their, preservation, as they could safely have been brought on without delay in wooden coffins. GUARDING Till-: DKEADKUL HEOKKT. The design was obviously to prevent the friends of tho dead sailors being given an opportunity to look at their remains for tho purpoßO of identification or otherwise. Even tho sailors on tho relief ship, with tho exception of tho few men who assisted in moving the bodies, were net allowed to sec them, and tho lips of tho officers were scaled. The suffering* and privations of the men in their canvas hut during tho long and bitter winter of 1884 have not half been told. It has been published that after tho game ran out early in February, they lived principally on sealskins, lichens, and shrimps. As a mattor of fact, they were kept alive on human flosh. When tho rescuing party discovered the half-starved survivors their lirst duty was to look to the two men who wero insensible from cold and privation, oven to tho point of death. Ono of them, a German, was wild, and in his delirium, "Oh !" ho shrieked, as the sailors took hold of him to lift him tenderly, "Don't let them shoot me as they did poor Henry ! Must I bo killed and oaten ac poor Henry was ? Don't let them do it—don't, don't I" AN INVKHTIOATIOX. Tho sailors wero horrified, but at once reported the man's words to Commander Schley. After a brief investigation ho felt satisfied thut tho poor fellow was speaking the truth, and that somo of the men who had perished had been stripped of their flesh to keep their surviving comrades alive. Sehley proposed to make a thorough inves tigation of it, and when the horrible reality wiih brought out before tho investigating committee, it .struck him ho did not intend to have it rest upon oral testimony. Be instructed two or three gentlemen, among whom wero Dr. Ames and the surgeon of the Bear, to make a careful observation and put their conclusions in writing. This was done, and the reports are now in the hands of the Navy Department. Lieutenant Greely was decidedly adverse to having the bodies of the buried dead disturbed. lie thought it wise, as they had been buried so long, to let them remain in their Arctic graves. Com mander Schloy did not agree with him, and tho bodies wore dug up from a little hill just back of the pcrmament camp made in 1883. Most of tho blankets contained only little white heaps of bones, and most of them were picked clean. The remains could only bo identified by tho marks on the blankets. By inquiry, Commander Schley discovered that many of the seventeen men said to have perished from starvation had been eaten by their famishing comrades. It was the ono last resort. Supplies had not ar rived, and death Ftared the hungry and crazed men in the face, but there was hope if life would hold out even for a few weeks. It is roported that the only men who escaped the knifo wore three or four who died of scurvy. The amputated limbs of men who afterwards perished were eagerly devoured as food. A TRAGIC DEATH. Charles B, Henry's death was particularly tragic. He was a young GermaD without any relatives in tho country, and joined Company E, Fifth Cavalry, in Cincinnati. His friends tried to dissuade him from going with the expedition, but his spirit of adventure was aroused by tales of Arctic exploits, and he determined to go. Driven to despair by his frightful hunger, Henry caw an opportunity to steal more than his share of rations, and made the at tempt. He was found out, and shot for his crime. In tho published official report the death of this man is set down as having occurred on June 6th. When the body was' found the hands and faco, though shrunken, were intact and recognisable, but nearly everywhere else tho skin had been stripped from him and flesh picked from the bones. Even his heart and lungs were eaten by his comrades. One rib was found shattered by a rifle ball, and other small fragments of lead were attached. A bullet-hole was found in tho skin. STORY OF A GERMAN SAILOR. A Gorman was pointed out as a sailor who accompanied the "Thetis." His name was Ruggessen. Ho told the story of tho finding of the bodies in a simplo, straightforward way that carried conviction with it. The sailor said : "It was Socond-Lieutonant Colville who stood over me as I dug up the bodies." "I had my shovel with me, but the first tiling I caw was a naked corpse lying right out on tho ground. On the calf of the leg and on the thigh there wero deep cuts, as though a sailor's sheath-knife had carved away the flesh. The skin was tightly drawn over the rest of the body, and even in the places whore the cuts wore, not much flesh had been, taken away. Tho man was too much wasted to yield more than half an inch of flosh on any part of his body. The cuts looked as though some person had made a hasty slash with a knife in what was once the fleshy part of the leg. The slashes wore about eight inches long and three inches wide. They were on both legs and thighs—four cuts in all. Altogether there rould not have been more than two or three pounds of meat taken from the corpse. The places where tho flesh was torn away had turned a yellowish black, but did not differ very mucji from the colour of the skin. The man's face was drawn and haggard. Tho cheek-bones stood out like an Indian's, and tho abdomon had fallen in. It was the awfulest corpse I over saw, or want to soc, I can tell you. We threo stood there, looking I at it for some timo. Of courso it wasn't my j placo to say anything, and I kept my inoutK shut. Lioutenant Colvillo was tho iirst to say a word. Ho sent me back for Komo blankets, so I dropped my shovol and hur ried away. When I got back with the blan kets there were two other naked bodies ly ing side by side with the mutilated body. I began to think that my shovol would not be needed." UNBURIIiD CORPSES. " Had the three corpses novor been buried 1" " Buried 1 No. They had boon stripped of their clothes as soon as they died, and left naked on the ground. Some of tho flesh had beon torn away from the arms and shoulders. The cuts were rough and jagged, as if mado at night, and at a time when the cannibal had to trust to his sense of feeling. Long shreds were stripped from the legs in irregular strips, suggesting tho thought that tho knife had been plunged in, and then the fingers had torn away" what remained of the tlesh. It was awful. We wrapped what remained of the corpses in a blanket, and went on a few steps, whoro we found the graves. With the shovel I scraped otf a thin layer of sund, aiid brought to light the remains of t.hn other nine men. These had been buried in their clothes, just as they died. A bag covered each one, and by the names written on these we learned who they were. They were taken to the ships, wrapped in other blankets, and finally preserved in alcohol." These bodies had been mutilated, and our had drifted out to sea. CONFIRMATION OF THE STORY, Thestory having been officially denied, some % the friends of the unfortunate men had their bodies exhumed, tho result being the fullest confirmation of tho dread fid narrative. It is supposed by some, from the appearance of the bodies, that up I to the time of the surgeon's death he re- ' moved tho llesh, the appearance of the corpses supporting the opinion that they had been cut by "one skilled in dissection. ; After the surgeon died, the men seemed to j have satisfied their hunger as they pleased.

ftMttttift. August H.-^h* «»«*.jj«!J* fortdlng disclosures wero made in this city doubt that cannibalism was 0)te" ™. "^ the starvingjmen of the Greely exp^"^j and shows that the lives of those say. were preserved only by eating the dead bodies of their companions. Lieutenant Kislingbury's relatives here were filled with horrible doubts as soon a? they learned of the disclosures mado in New York regarding cannibalism among the members of "the expedition, and they determinedto learn the truth by exhuming the remains and having them examined by competent physicians. Tho services of L. A. Jen^' an undertaker, were secured, and tins morning, with the assistance of iive men, he accomplished tho work of taking up the casket of iron from its resting-placo. me casket was opened in the presence of i rank Kislingbury and John V. KUlingbury, brothers of the deceased ; Drs Charles a. AckloyandF. A. Mandoville, Superinten dent Sttllson, Assistant Superintendent Mandevillc, and two reporters of the " Post and Express." OI'ENING TIFK CAS!'*.T'/ Tho work of opening tho heavy irwi re ceptacle was found comparatively easy. All there was to do1 was to unscrew fifty two iron bolts which held down the lid, The noiseless eriso with which the latter was priod from its bed showE-l. that there was an absence of gas in the casket/ nnd it was feared that there might be nobody in the casket at all Feeling his way into a mass of cotton waste which filled the coffin to the top, the undertaker soon exclaimed : "He is there." A strong odor of aloahol,, but no very pronounced suggestions of de< nay, was emitted from the casket. Dr. Buckley, who had put on a pair of black leather gloves, uncovered the lower part of the body, and then it appeared as if one of the logs—tho right one—was missing ; but when the wttsto wire all removed it became apparent that tl:3 limb was bidden under the left one. The casket was next placed upon the floor, and the body taken from it and placed upon a table. The undertaker and physicians now began to cut tho stitchos and unwind the white sheeting which formed tho first covering. Tho shf'ct was taken away, tho tarred rope entwining the blanket cut, and tho >york of t-ikii g off tho last covering began. Slowly the blanket was removed. The blackoned flcshless faco, showing marks of Arctic soil, bore no semblance to the dead man. The skin was dried to the skull, the sightless sockets and half-opened mouth gave tho dead man a look of mute agony. Tho re mains were completely identified as those of Lieutenant Kislingbury. The physician made a thorough examination, and the re mains wcro then placed back in the casket and again lowered to tho graVoi

KEI'OKT OF HIE PHYSICIANS,

On roturning to tho city, the physicians made an affidavit, in which they say :

The body in weight approximated, in cur opinion, about 50 pounds. On examina tion of the head, no signs of wounda or in juries were visible. Tho skin was not broken. Tho oars and nose were intact. The skin and muscles of the interior portion of tho face and neck were intact. From the upper portion of tho sternum and clavi cle to the lower portion of the fifth rib on the loft side tho skin and muscles had all been removed down to the ribs. On the right side tho skin and muscles down to the lower border of the last rib were gone, and their were two openings between the fourth and fifth in^reostal spaces into the thoracic cavity. Tho skin and muscles on the anterior portion of the abdomen were intact to the crest of the iltium, or the pelvic bones. The muscles and skin of the left leg were removed to within threo inches of the, ankle joint. On tho right leg the skin and muscles were removed to within fivo inches of the ankle joint. Both foot were intact, and the toes were all present. There was no vestige of integument or muscles on either arm, including tho muscles of the shoulder-blades, to tho wrist joints, except on the right forearm. The tlesh and muscles of both hands wore intact.

The examination of the posterior portion of the body showed that the skin and muscles of the back from tho seventh cer vical vertebra had been dissected or cut completely away down to the bones, with tho exception of pieces of skin from two to three inches square on eacli side of the upper portion of the sacrum. Tho pelvic bones wore completely denuded. All the extremities were attached to the body by ligaments only. No fracture of tho bones was discovered. We found all the organs of the thorax and abdomen. There was evidence of recent inflammation of the stomach and bowels. In our opinion the llesh removed was cut away with some sharp instrument. That romaining on the feet and hands and fuce showed no signs of decomposition.

STATEMENT OF KKLINGBURY'S BROTHER.

In an interview with the " Times " repre sentative this evening, W. H. Kislingbury, elder brother of the deceased, outlined tbe conditon of things which would lead to the belief that the Greely expedition was divided into parties or factions, and that one perished becausd'the others had gained possession, by force, of the food supply. In tliis ostracised party were Lieutenant Kis lingbury and Dr. I'avy. The condition of Lieutenant Kislingbury'sbodyshows that he died of starvation ata time when others had some food supply. \V. H Kislingbury op posed the exhuming of the remains of his brotherupto Wednesday night, believing his brother could not have been preyed upon by tho survivors, because it was reported he had helped t~< kill a polar bear three days before he died. The party was res cued three weeks after he died, and Kis lingbury held that the bear would have lasted the remaining survivors that length of time, fairly distributed and husbanded, but Kislingbury shows no evidence of having partaken of the bear, and the fact that the fleshy parts of its body were cut, off in a careful and scientific manner shows that the bear story might have been invented by some one to conceal the fact of cannibalism. Instead of eating bear, the survivors sub sisted on the bodies of their dead com panions. In tho opinion of Kislingbury, Dr. Pavy died in advance of the outcome oi tho desperate struggle for subsistence, and ended his life or fell a victim to the despera tion of the immediate r.dherents of Greoly. In other words, it was a. case in which those not in favour with,the commander wore compelled to die that tho others might live. Kislingbury takes the gloomy view that there was ft struggle among the starv ing and desperate men, and that the strong est, by virtue of authority and possession of the little food on hand, survived. Lieut. Kislingbury, it seems, was under Greoly's displeasure from the beginning.

WHAT LIEUTENANT GKEELY SAYS,

Boston, August 13.—A special from Portsmouth, N. H., says : Early this morn ing Colonel Kent obtained an interview with Lieutenant Greoly, .who admitted that he had Henry shot. The military execution was on the 6th of Juno. As early as march he suspected Henry of stealing the limited food which was apportioned out to the sur vivors, and this fact being finally and positively ascertained, Lieutenant Greely had thereafter hard work to protect the man's life. It became necessary, in order to keep up discipline, to inform Henry that ho would bo shot if the practice continued, and that a similar fate would be meted out to any other member of the party detected in a like crime. If Henry had been permit ted to continue his stealings unmolested, the balance of the party would surely have starved to death, and Henry alone sur vived. After and in spite of these warn ings, Henry was again detected stealing provisions, among the food taken being two pounds of bacon, he eating off so much of it that it made him sick, A search was then instituted, when it was found (hat Henry had, among other articles, stolon and secreted a pair of sealskin boots which had belonged to a hunter of the party. Lieutenant Greely was therefore forced, in order to maintain military discipline and protect the lives of his other comrades, to issue a written order that Henry be shot, which order was carriod into effect on June 6th.

As to the alleged cannibalism, Greoly say a :—"lt is newg and horrible news to me. All these later disclosures and terrible charges come upon mo with awful sudden noss. I can truthfully say 1 havo suffered more mental anguish the last few days than I did in all my sojourn at tho north, whon tho chances were a hundred to one against me. I cannot but repeat if there wero any cannibalism, and thero now seems no doubt of it, the man-eating was done in secret and entirely without my knowledge and contrary to my discipline. I can make no stronger de:-.ial. All my papers and Kislingbury's diary, Lock wood s diary, and, in fact, every scrap of information relating to the expedition, are in charge of tho War Department. Tho crew of tho Thetis can testify that the body of the lost dead, Schneider, was not mutilated in any way, and the fact that we kept Ellison alivo in the hopeless state he was in ought to convince anybody that we were not cannibals. Since my return from Newburyport every one of my men has called upon me. They came in a body, and assured me that they knew nothing about the condition of the bodies of their fallen comrades,

antl 9ftoh solemnly swots ho ftaft InnectmV Perhaps those who died last fed upon th& bodies of those who died before, but all this in supposition. I can but answer for my. self and for my orders to the party. For: days and weeks I lay on my back unable to, move. If, in my enfeebled condition, one; or more of my men fed upon human flesh, it was beyond my control and certainly beyond; £>v knowledge. I know I have been criti cised' for not tolegraphing the fact of the shooting of Henry as soon as I arrived at St. John's, bu* y.°? must remember I was in a wretched cone.;* 10" of body and mind. I was in a quandary whether I should be tried for murder, as Henry wV 13 shot on my own responsibility, and not by oTclel' « a regular court-martial."

A TENNESSEE TRAGEDY.

Foot Mormon Missionaries and thole-

■Bcrfenderß Murdered.

Nashvilu:, Town-., August 14th.—A des patch from Cciitcvvilic corroborates the report of the murder of Mormons in Lewis county by masked men last f-miday morn ing. The raiding party nnfftbrred about forty. Thirteen of these attached She house of Martin Condor, ivhere a Mormox meet ing was in progress. Forcing open the-, doort, they were encountered by young- Martin ' Condor, who was armed with a, gun. In the effort to disarm him, one of the raider" was struck with the gun", unmasking him. when he drew a pistol and shot Condor in the bowels. After staggtr- Ing a few steps, Condor was shot again by one of the party with buckshot and killed; instantly. At the same instant another of the attacking pnfty fired upon a Mormon ■older named Gibba, who was partly hidden by th<* wife of the old man Condor, killing Gibbs, and severely wourttling Mrs Condor in the thigh. He then fired the remaining load in the gun .'it p Morman elder named. Berry, hiding behind a bed, and killed him instantly. Another Mormon elder in the house who ran out fit the back door was pursued by two of the ati tacking party stationed outside. They fired on him as lie ran away, and it i>? not known whether he wiis killed or not. After killing Berry, the t«fo masked men, started to lenvs, and juss as they got out of the house, J. Li. Hudson fired and killed Dave Hinson, one of the masked men. One of Hinson'a party stood over his body and fired two loads of buck shot, and Hudson wasliterally riddled. The Mormons, in fear of another attack, did not make soarch until Mouday.-when they found the Mormon that ran away from Condor's dead, and it is rumoured that the othor missing elder has been found dead. The Mormons claim to have been sent here direct from Utah to make converts and establish churches.

Fuller particulars of the anti-Mormoa riot confirm the reports heretofore tele graphed. Another Mormon elder was to day found dead in tha woods, and still another is missing, making seven persons who are now known to have lost their liyfs in the affair.

MINING NEWS.

COKOMANDEL.

(From tho "Coromandel Mail."

Tokatea.J The manager reports getting a number of flint seams lying horizontal in the face of main level. Tho lay of tho country hasalso changed, and is now running same course as the big reef showing that they nmrt bo getting well up to the ruef. Theso flint Reams, although very inconvenient for driving, making progress very slow, are a good indication for gold, and we have bettor hopes of getting gold wince we heard of them than before. It is net possible to say exactly how near the face in to the reef, because a very slight alteration in the dip would mean many feet at this level, but tho/ manager is pretty confident he will cat it between 40 and 100 feet from the presenji fate. It has always been expected there would be a soft channel of country on the foot wall of the reef of from 25 to 50 feet thick, but there is no sign of anything o£ the kind at present. Royal Oak.—There is no change tore port from this mine. The drive Is still going ahead, but they cannot get anything payable so far, although from the appear ance of the reef it would lead one to expect gold at any time. Success.—Small patches of gold continue to be got in the stopes, but; nothing of any importance. We have not heard of any movemeut yet towards testing the Queen reef at their low level. We think the sooner a job of this sort is set about the better, a8 it takes time, and shareholders get impatient at delay.

Qfkkjt.—The drive going in to cut the reef is making very1 slow progress, tha ground being exceedingly hard, but tho ' reef ought to be in hand in a few weeks at furthest.

Dear Sir,—Beinsr a firm non-believer in patent ' or proprietary Medicines, my testimony may be ! of some value to you. Last week I suffered, . aoutely from severe contraction of the nerves ot the neck and shoulder. A friend laughingly suggested St. Jacobs Oil, and I invested in a bottle, rubbing it well in at night before retiring, ■ The feeling of warmth and counter-irritation 1 experienced almost immediately waa. very strong; and lam pleased to state that I awoke next morning with hardly any trace of pain. A ■' second and less prolonged application Cured me completely. A bad chilblain on my ear waa re moved with one rubhing. You may mention my name as an authority on St. Jacobs Oil.—l remain, dear Sir, faithfully yours, D. Benjamin. ' GOLD MEDAL, CHRISTCHURCH, 1882* GOLD MEDAL, CHRISTCHURCH/1882.
