The TriJatne says: A careful investigation
Of the matter Yesterday showed that ii the

the party. as his mind was clearer aud he
was in n better physical condition than any
one else. lie was standing before The tei.t.
when Lieutenant Colwell and the crew OF
The Bears launch came up. The Lieuten-
ant and Captain Ash, the ice pilot OF the
Bear, had their pockets stuffed with food.
The tent was cut open and the survivors
inside found lying in their sleeplng-bags.
They were like children, and had but one
idea and that was eating. " Weare saved"
said they feebly; won'tyou give us some
thing to eat:" All the food that it was pru-
dent for them to have was given to them, but
still they begged piteously for more. "YOu
pity US; you will give Us something, won't
you :" they would say. A mess of boiled
sealskin broth and moss had been prepared
when the party was stronger, and was
Standing in a kettle in the tent. One OF the
men in his frenzy grabbed handful and
put ii in his mouth, and then threw some

Arctic clothing. When the bodies OF the
dead were exhumed map was made OF the
ground. and the graves numbered. Around
the neck OF each body was put string
learng tag with number on 1t, corre-
spending TO tho number OF the grave. The
faces were all recognized from portraits
that Commander Schley had IN his posses
sion aud the name OF each carefully affixed
to the body. Greedy afterward gave Com
mander Schley map OF the ground where
the dead were buried, with the names OF
each Of the dead on the grave where he lay
buried This was carefully compared with
Commander Schley's map, and the identii-
cation was complete.

Lieutenant Greedy Explains the Henry Exc
cution, hut Knows of No NAVIGATING.

lBy telegraph TO the Dispatch.I
BOsTOS, August ia special dispatch
from Portsmouth, y. H., says: Early this
morning Colonel Kent obtained an inter-
view with.Lleuienant Greedy, who admits
that Private Henry had a military eXecu-
ton on the 9th OF June. As early as March
il was suspected that Henry was stealing
the limited food, which WAS appOrtioncd
out 10 the survivor. for their sustenance,
and this fact being finally and positively
ascertained, Lieutenant Greedy bad there
sitter hard work TO protect the mans life.
IL became necessary, IN order TO Keep up
discipline, 10 inform Henry that he would
be shot If the practice continued,
and that similar fate would be
meted ont to any other member OF the
party who should be detected IN ike
crime. II Henry had been permitted 10
continue his stealings unmolested the bal
ance OF the party would have been surely
starved 10 death. and Henry alone sur
yiyed. After, and In spite OF these warn
ings, Henry was again detected stealing
provisions, among the food taken being
two pounds OF bacon. the eating OF 80
much of which made him sick. search
was then instituted, when 1t was found
that Henry had, among other articles, stolen
and secreted pair OF sealshin DoOts
which bad belonged TO the hunter OF the
party. Lieutenant Greely was. therefore,
| forced, in order to maintain military dlsci-
pine and TO protect the lives OF his other
comrades, to issue a written order that
Henry be shot, which order was carried
! into effect on June 9Th.
As TO the alleged cannibalism. Lieuten-
ant Greely saws that II there was anything
OF the kind 1t must have been an individual
act and not general. Nothing OF the kind,
however, came under Lieutenant Greely's
personal observation.
Sergeant Brainard, who Is in the hospital
at the pavy-yard, confirms Lieutenant
| Greely'S statements.
More than a week ago Lieutenant Greely
forwarded 10 the Secretary OF War a de-
tailed report Of lIenry's execution.
Upon proper representations TO Secre
tary Lincoln a court OF inquiry will un
doubtediy be ordered.
