RELIEF BOAT CHAMBERS.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 29.-The National relief boat
Chambers arrived at quarantine this morning.
After brief stay they came into the city, and
the boat now lies at call. She has been thor
oughly disinfected, fnmigated and scrubbed
from stem to stern. Officers and crew all we'll.
Lieut.. Hall, commander of the boat since the
death OF Lieut. Banner, says the suffering of
the people IN the little towns on the river bank,
and few miles back, is very great and de-
mands immediate attention. In some places
ne says the people are almost starving, food
being scarce and crops very scanty. The peo-
pie can be easily reached now that the
quarantine is being raised. Lieut..
Hall says the circumstances attending
the death of Lieut.. Benner were greatly exag-
gerated by DIR. Reilly, who, he states, was with
the expedition ostensibly as a physician, rep
resenting the Chicago relief association. Eut in
reality as a reporter for Chicago paper. He
charges Reilly with sending highly sensational
dispatches, not only about Benner's sickness
and death. but about his own very brief illness,
wi Itch greatly alarmed his family. Reilly left
the relief boat at vicksburg, and was not seen
since by any member of the expedition.
