MUMFORD'S GHOST.
Does 1t Ever Haunt Ben Butler Now
(St. Louis Republican Special.l

[St. Louis Republican Special
Washington, November IS.-Since Buffers
election as governor of Massachusetts, great
deal has been said in the papers about But
ler's execution of Mumford at New Orleans
in 1862 for hauling down the American flag,
which foated over the mint in that city. The
fact that left Davis pronounced Butler an out
law for this act has also been republished and
commented upon. 1t seems that the story as
told is not entirely correct. Major General
Wilcox of the confederate army furnishes the
following statement with regard to the affair:
The circumstances connected with the ex
cution of young Mumford are given by New
Orleans people as follows: Pending nogota-
tons between Mayor Munroe and the com
mander of the fleet for the surrender OF New
| Orleans, flag of truce being displayed at the
time, small party landed from gunboat ly-
| ing at anchor a short distance from the foot
of Esplanade street. They went to the mint
on that street, two blocks from the river,
hauled down the confederate flag flying from
the flagstaff above the roof Of the building,
ran up the stars and stripes and returned to
the gunboat. A small party Of citizens, and
it is said that the youth Mumford was not one
of them, regarding the act as without author
ity and in violation of the truce, repaired to
the mart, hauled down the stars and stripes
and hoisted again the confederate flag where
it had right to be, the city not having sur.
rendered. Gen. Butler was not present and
had nothing to do with the capture OF New
Orleans. He found it quiet, in possession o
the fleet upon his arrival several days subse
5 ouent to its surrender. His first official &C
was the trial and execution Of Mumford
