ELECTORS-AT-LARGE.
Missouri Greenbackers.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, August 1.-THE
Greenbackers of the Ninth Congressional
District will have grand Butler and
West rally at Chouteau avenue hall this
evening. One of the purposes of the
meeting will be the election of delegates
to the Kansas City Convention, which as
sembles on the 10th inst. Colonel +.
j. Underwood, of Springfield, Mo-, will
speak. There will another grand
rally of Greenbackers to indorse
the nominees of the State Convention,
at Lucas Market, Tuesday, August Goth.
1t is understood that the State Conven-
ton will do nothing looking to coalition
with the Republican party. While they do
not expect to elect their ticket, they
feel that any vote cast for it
will strengthen the anti-monopoly
cause. The members of labor
unions will vote for Ben Butler
as rule, but as the Con-
stitutions of many of the unions forbid
interference in politics no general action
vii be taken by the labor clement. The
probability Is that Hon. Nicholas Ford,
Of Buchanan County, will be nominated
tor Governor, at Kansas City, although
+. NJ. Rice and Henry Eshbaugh are also
mentioned. The Greenbackers are de-
termined to make a vigorous and spirited
campaign.

the holding of State Convention in this
city. One call is signed by z. Waters,
chairman of the anti-monopoly State
Committee, and Jesse Harper, of the

ventlon on the 10th inst, the other
by A. Ii. McKeighan, who is not sup
porter of Butler, and who has called a
State Convention on the 27th. 1t is
thought that the two factions will come
together and meet in convention on the
10th.

NEW YORK, August l4.-An officer of
the Thetis describes the manner in which
the bodies of the dead were packed by
Ensign Harlus, Chief Engineer Melville,
DR.. Armes and Lieutenant Cross. He
says: "Thcy cut off all the clothing and
sewed the corpses up in sheets. Then
the limbs and bodies were tightly en-
yeloped in muslin bandages, which
were also sewn up, and the
heads and faces were all
concealed in like manner. The only arti-
Gle of clothing which was not removed
was WOODEN skull cap worn by each.
We left that on because we were afraid
to remove 1t. After being thus prepared
the bodies were paced in iron tanks and
covered with alcohol. The bodies were
removed from the tanks and placed in the
iron baskets by officers also, and no 9TH
ers saw them.

Jpree ever since. lie sobered off in time
for the exhibition, but the friendly set
.o's In which he took part were decidedly
tame. The first was between the cham
pion and Dominick McCaffrey. The
men spared lightly, and two or three
times Sullivan made great rush
at McCaffrey, but failed to
get in any heavy blows,
and Dominick might have punished him
severely. The champions next set-to
was with Steve Taylor, OF Jersey City.
They spared three one-mlnute rounds.
The champion evidently tired very easily,
and in the second and third rounds the
men simply shaped each other few
times and sat down. There were no
real blows exchanged Sullivan last APP
peared in playful set-to with the bene-
dietary OF the evening.
