Greely’s Official Report. Lieut. Greely has submitted the following report to the adjutant general of the army, through the chief signal officer, under date of Portsmouth, N. HL, August 1:tp: ‘Sim: I have the honor to report that on June 6th, 1884, at Camp Clay, near Cape Sabine, Grinnell Land, tt became necessary for me to order the military execution of Private Charles B. Henry, 5th cavalry, for continued thieving. The order was given in writing on my undivided responsibility, Deing deemed absolutely essential for the safety of the surviving members of the expedition. Ten had already died of starvation and two more lay atthe polnt of death. The facts inducing my action were as follows: Provisions had been stolen in November, 1688, and Henry's complicity therein Was more than suspected. “March 24h, 1884, the party nearly perished from asphyxia. While several men were unconscious and efforis were being made for their restoration Private Henry stole about two Pounds of bacon trom the mess stores. Me Was ot Snly seen by Esquimaux Jeus Edwards, but his ‘stomach being overloaded he threw up the undi- ted Ano Investigation was eld, and every member of tho party de- clared him guilty of this and other thefts. A clamor for his life was raised, but was repressed. by me. I put him under survelllance until our Waning strength rendered his physical services 1n- dispensable. Later he was found one day intoxi- cated, having stolen the liquor on hand for general issue. A second Ume bis iife was demanded, but I again spared Lim. On June Sth t veits of provisions: on his part having been reported tome, I had a conversation with ‘hm, in which I appeaied to his pr ciical sense, pointing out that unlon was neces- Sary to our preservation. He promised reformation, Dut distrusting 1 issued a written order that he Should be shot it detected stealing. On June 6th he not only stole part of the shrimps ior our breakfast, Dut visiting, unauthorized, our winter camp, stole certain seal’skin reserved for food. I then ordered him shot. On his person was founda silver chro. hograph abandoned by me at Fort Conger and stolen by im. In iis bag was found a large quan- Uty of seal skin and a pair of seal skin boots, stolen a few days before from the hunter. Suspecting ‘complicity on the part of several I ordered his exe- cution by three of the most reliable men. After hisdeath the order was read to the entire party and was concurred in by every member as being not only just, but as essential to our safety. TO avold public scandal I ordered that no Man should speak of this matver untl an official report was made of the facts Ihave the honor to request that a court of inquiry be ordered, or a court-martial convened, should the honorable 'Secretary of War deem either advisable in unig case. I have thought it best not to ask the | written statements of the surviving members of the party for appendices to this report, lest { might seem to be tampering with them. Ihave not asked since our resoue Sune set wnether their opinions concu! ‘my action have cl ‘or not, Jeaving such questions to your action, if deemed | requisite.

If any cannibalism took place, Lieut Greely emphati- Cally says 1t was in secret, ‘and not indulged in by the party, Dut to the Dest of his knowledge there was none. Lieut.

LOCK WOOD'S REMAINS NOT MUTILATED. Dispatches from Annapolis state that Gen. Lock- Wood, father of Lieut. Lockwood, has received assurances from officers of the Thetis and others who saw the body and prepared it for burial, that the body was wholly intact and presented no evi- dence of mutilation. Henry's Coffin Filled by What Scarcely More than a Dummy. The New York Times of to-day says: “The re- mains of Private Charles B. Hexry, who was shot at the Greely camp on Smith’s Sound on June 6 at extremity for food, were found by the rescuing Party from an elghth to a quarter of a mile beyond the tent of the starving men. There was scarcely ‘anything left buta pile of glistening bones, stripped of nearly every trace of flesh except some of the lower part of the trunk. The head was missing, And could not be found, so that t was at frst sup- posed that the remutns were those of Dr. Pavs. The nes were placed in a hag for removal to the Bear with the remains of six others of the ill-fated expe- dition. On board they were deposited in a little box about two feet long, which was placed aft and cov- ered with the stars and stripes. A day or two after Temoved from the deck, and the oflicers, determined. cannibailsm enacted at the camp on Cape Sabine, Prepared the bones for burlal. Sticks or wood ‘Were procured, and to these, fitted to the proper length, the bones were tied, untll all were as nearly i place as IU was possibie to get them. ‘The bead Was missing, and a block of wood was made to do duty in its place. Then this frame-work In the shape of a man was ted to a plank, aud wound Was then surteptitiously placed tn one of the alco- hol-filled tanks with some of the others. It was, this skillfully made package, resembling a human ody, that was lifted into a coMin at St. Johna, and marked “Private Charles B. Henry.” It way’ this bundle of wood that was brought to New York, claimed by triends of Private Henry, and buried ai Cypregs Hills cemetery. 80 well had the work been done that it is doubtful if those handling the mummy-lUke remains at St. Johns had any suspl- clon that there was one of the bundles which was largely made up of wood. ‘When the details of Lieut. Greely’s report regard- ing the shooting of Private Henry became known, | the course pursued by him met the hearty approval of both navy and army officers, | WHAT ADMIRAL NICHOLS SAID. { Admiral Nichols, acting Secretary of the Navy, | sald in regard to the matter: “The mistake Greely | made was in not ordering him shot when he was | frst detected stealing. He was too lenient with him. When he was found guilty he should have been shot, but instead Lieut. Greely gave him two | chances for his life.” COMMODORE WALKER eAID: ‘That under the circumstances there was no other course to pursua In umes of great danger ex- treme measures are necessary. During the war, he said, he had held loaded revolvers at the heads of Wo pilots to keep them to thelr duty, and would not have hesitated an instant in shooting them if they had flinched. OTHER OPINIONS. Gen. McKeever, acting adjutant general, satd: “Of course he was justifed in shooting Henry. ‘There isno doubt about that. While there 1s no | military law which provides for Just such occastons, | still a commanding oMfcer is in cuty bound to tal extreme measures to preserve discipline. ‘The mis- take that was made,” continued the general, “was in not reporting the dotalls as soon as possible. The whole affair should have | been made public. ‘Tiere was some | Mystery about the whole matter which the re- porters were bent upon solving, thus giving rise to exaggerated reports. ‘The idea of giving a mutt. nous thief, who was executed, a military funeral s preposterous.

The Secretars of War, the lieu- tenant general and other prominent officers at- tended the military funerai of the executed crim- {nal, 1n honor of whose heroism three volleys were fred. Lieut.

Capt. Mackenzie, the father of Gen. Mackenzie, when commanding a'naval vessel, back in the tortes, discovered a mutiny on board lis vessel, in which he found some ot is own officers tobe implicated.

Greely's wishes, ‘There was some little comment to-day upon the fact that Lieut Greely in his report made no refer- ence to the annibalisin among the party. ‘This increased the doubts in the minds of some upon that braneh of the story. ‘The Body of Sergeant Cross, “We do not take any stock in the report of can- nibalism,” said Mr, Collins, a brother-in-law of Ser- geant Wm. H. Cross, one of the dead of the Greely Party, toa Stan reporter to-day. “Will the family do anything about opening Cross’ casket?” asked the reporter, “That is. matter that has not been considered yet by the family at all,” sald Mr. Collins. Mr. Collins stated that the death of Mr. Cros cousin, whieh occurred yesterday, had brought another aMiiction upon the family and they had all they could attend vo at present without discussing this question. Lieut. Greet ‘porter—He Cannibalism. ‘Lieut. Greely made a statement at Portsmouth, N. H., yesterday, a8 stated in the telegrams pub- Ushed in Tae Sax last evening, in relation to the shooting of Private Henry, and also as to the stories of cannibalism among his party. After Henry had been detected several times in stealing from the stores, Lieut. Greely sald he was placed under guard for several weeks, until the increasing feebleness of the other members of the party ren- dered it necessary for them to avail themselves of Henry's personal services. Shortly afterward he Stole liquor from the stores and became intoxicated. In Ils comrades clamored for his life, and again . Greely restrained them. On June he again Stoleand carried away some of the provisions Lieut, Greely spoke finally to Henry and told him it ‘Would be policy for him to stop. Said the leuten- aut: “For God’s sake, Henry, as you seem to have no moral sense, remember ‘that our lives depend upon our holdiig together.” With great earnest- ness Henry promised not to be gullty of theft again. Lieut. Greely felt that he could not trust Henry. After revolving in his mind thelr circumstances, the Aeuten:nt on Ais own responsibility issued a writ- ten order, now in the possession of one of the sur- vivors, commanding that Henry be shot at once ‘upon the commission of any more thefts of food. ‘BENRY’S LAST THEFT FROM THE STARVING MEX. At this time the party had left as a last resort only pleces of sealskin and such shrimps as they could procure. About June 6th Henry went to the old winter quarters at Camp Clay, near Cape Sabine, and stole some of the last sedisiin, which ‘Was the only food left. He also took the last. pair of boots in the stores. “On being closely questioned ou Statement to a He- nows Nothing of Any by Lieut. Grecly he admitted ‘his guilt, He was again ready wit to do better. His fute ‘was upon him. He was in the afternoon of that day a lutte ice at the rear of the summer uarters alone by himself. The written order for execution was committed to three of the ‘were ordered to shoot encoun! as Ileus danger themselves as as Henry was ‘the strongest of the party. | thrown Into the sea to prevent Ident! ‘That the bones Were so cleanly stripped of flesh leads to but one conclusion. ‘There was no game about the camp on Smith's Sound excepting a lew foxes, hares, and ptarmigans. There were ho Car nivernts animals, as the record of the relief expe- dition shows, to Gisturb the remains of the dead, neither did they decay. ‘The fivsh that remained on the frames of those even longest dead had not rotted or fallen away. Sergeant Cross, the frst of the party who died, passed away on’ January 18. He was @ large mah, and when taken from the hallow grave his body was found heavier than any f the others. ‘The flesh was quite frm, and showed no signs of decay excepting a portion of ue land, which was sligutly discolored. Yet of Private Henry, who died only 16 day before the relief party alived, there was nothing left but a few floshless bones." The head had probably been “ation when te truth should be known—as'it was sure to be some time, whether rescue came or nol. In this work of the officers of dhe Bear it was not possibie to remove all traces of the bullet by which Henry met his death, for more was left of the trunk than of any other’poruion. Flesh was cut from the bodies of the other dead as the pangs of hunger rew 100 strong for the survivors. ‘But with Henry, reshly killed tor attemptlng to steal an extra share of ratlons, it was differeut. ‘The men cooked anid ate the hiiman flesh, and by this means life Ww: ugtaihed until rescue caine. Very little Was $2iJ tn the published reports of the Minding of the bones of Henry. Twelve bodies were reportel as brought away from the Greely camp, and It was supposed by nearly all on board, especially those on the Thetls and Alert, that atnong them was the body of Dr. Pavy. — Not once, atter the versel arrived at St. Johns, Was the name of Henry given by any correspondent. Iv appears in Commsader Sehiey’s report to tae department, but all correspondents as well as the Associated Press gave the name of Pavy in the list of the bodies In the tanks of the Bear and the Thetis. How it was determined that the bones were those of Henry isnot known, But it was not until after | the vessels were well on their homeward way, and even ten the crews were lett In the belief ‘that | one body was that of Dr. Pavy, whose body was at St Jouns reported vy Commatider Schley a having been washed away. ‘All officers on board the three vessels comprising the squadron revused yesterday,as they have before, lo have anything to say avout tue terrible dis: closures which have been made concerming Une cannibalism practiced at the Greely camp.

The Times states that Coroner James Robinson, of Long Island City, who has jurisdiction over Cypress Hilis cemetery, where tie body of Henry | 4s buried, says that If the friends of tue dead man | in Nebraska will make the proper aMdavits, stating that they believe that Henry died a violent death, AU Will be mandatory upon hit to exhume the body | and hold an inquest. The coroner sald that it | Henry’s friends took no steps he himself should | Jook up the law and ascertain what should be doae.

At the Treasury department to-day 1t was stated that the District Commissioners had fallen into an error as to the final disposition of the fund. ‘Treas- urer Wyman stated to a Stax reporter that i the Commissioners had made Inquiry or waited until to-day they would not have written the letter they did, is it would have been unnecessary. ‘The mat- ter has been acted upon by the Secretary of the ‘Treasury, and the papers have been returned tothe ‘reasuret with the following by the retary: “The net proceeds of the sale of the bonds re- ferred to, amounting to $39,077 54, has been covered into the treasury on inisceliameous receipts, $80,180.78 of which amount, being ten per cent re- talned under the contract specified herein, will be advanced to the Commissioners upon their’ requisi- ton under the head of guarantee fund, D.
