The Story about the Monitors
a Hoax.

BALTIMORE, Dec. q
The regular Fortress Monroe letter to
the Associated Press of Monday and
Tuesdays date contains no reference to
the receipt of Richmond papers of the
10Th. The telegram purporting to come
from Charleston that the Ironsides had
got entangled in the Instructions and that
two monitors were damaged. There is.
therefore, no doubt that the dispatch in
question was hoax and as the agent at
Fortress Monroe always mails copy of
his dispatches here 1t is certain that the
attachment of his name to the telegram
was a forgery. s.- t.. s

Women Killed At vicksburg.

Captain Harry McDougal, who has spen.
several days At Vicksburg, since its surren.
der, writes rs that he has made careful
inquiry - to the actual number of women
killed in tho city during the bonbardmeut
BY General Grant. He learns that the
number is 20. Besides these, quite nun.
Der Of children were killed. Captain Nc.
Dougal states that during the bombardment
it Was not an uncommon sight for women
to be seen, parasol in hand, promenading
the streets; that the number killed is at
tributable to the bravsdo With which they
thus exposed themselves. In one instance
Of the death of children, eight or ten little
boys were playing together in front of one

Of them. One little fellow, . moet inter.
esting child and son of formerly prominent
merchant of the town, was literally torn
into fragments. Gen. Pemberton refused
to ALLOW the women and children to leave
the city, and therefore be is responsible for
the death of the women and little iDnocents
killed during the bombardment.
These statements were obtained from one
Of the principal business men Of Vicks.
