THE GREEDY EXPEDITION,
sergeant Fredericks Denies Connell's
Statements as Entirely False.

INDIANAPOLIS, July 25.-The recent state
ments made by Mr. Connell, member of
the Greedy expedition, were to day shown
Julius II. Fredericks, also member, who
is now engaged in trade here to the effect
that it was doubtful if the American flag
was really placed further north than the
Th degree; that Greedy himself was sus-
pected of stealing food: that Henry and
DR.. Pavey were falsely accused of doing
so, and that Greeley caused Henry to be
shot for an offence which he condoned in
others. Toa reporter Sergeant Fredercks
said with some warmth that the state
ments were almost entirely false. 81 my
self said he, saw Henry stealing food
on three different occasions, and the
party demanded his life on three diff
ferent occasions, before Greedy would
allow it to be taken. Henry was prison
er during the greater part of the winter,
because of his thefts, and the guard was
taken away from him only when 50 many
had died that il was impossible to guard
him longer. | am satisfied that DR.. pavey
stole some of the goods and Whistler ac-
knOwledged that he had done so. Some
of the men suspected that Greedy also
stole food, but nobody had any direct
evidence that such was the case.
The statement that there is doubt of
parties reaching the farthest point north
is false. | was one of the seven who
reached Cape May There we found
records of the English that it was the far
thest point reached | know that Lock

DISGRACEFUL SOLDIERY.
Scandalous Conduct of New York Regi
ment in Camp.

PEEKsKILL, July 22.-Some idea of the
way the G5th regiment is conducting it
self in camp may be CLEANED from the fact
that the guard house is full and one of the
prisoners has so bad an attack of deliriun
tremens that he has been strapped in his
cot. Last night the men got so badly
thinned out that a guard was sent out tc
hunt up and bring into camp the run
Always. A number were found in Peeks
kill drunk, disturbing the peace, and they
were taken to camp, but by far the great
er number were at Iona Island attending
a picnic, beyond the reach of the guard.
In justice to the separate companies, it is
necessary to say that they behave like gen
uemen. The company, battalion and regi-
mental drills of the 18th are good, much
Improvement being observable, but the
personal behavior of the regiment is bad.

Omce-seeker Bent on Business
Unceremoniously Locked up.

ALBANY, NY, July 22-This evening
fireworks were set off at Washington

juncture he was arrested and taken away.
When the attention of the president was
drawn to the man, he remembered he
had been lowering about him all the at

arrested, but was led off to the I'd precinct
station house There he was searched
but no weapons were found on him. In
his pockets was found small sum of
money. His name was Nathan Schiller,
IS years old, from kingston n. Y. When
asked why he had followed the president
about, he said that when Cleve-
land was candidate for president
he introduced his name in various places
throughout the State, and spoke to the
people for him. He thought he deserved
a political position and being poor he
thought if the president knew what he
had done for HIM, he would give him a
position. He was only watching an oppor-
tunity to speak to him. The police locked
the man up until the president was out of

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, July 25.--The Re
publican will present to morrow morning
its annual survey of the crops grown in
western New England. Reports from the
the farming districts CT Hampden, Hamp-
shire Franklin, Berkshire and Worcester
counties and southern Vermont and New
Hampshire and northern Connecticut
show that the hay crop already harvested
is in unusually good shape and very
heavy except in few chill towns" To-
bacco once staple product of the rich
Connecticut and Housatonic valleys, is
fast disappearing, by the cheaper produc-
tiveness OF the western States Corn
has had hard luck all through the
section represented, starting poorly in
most cases, being replanted in many
instances, and suffering from the July
drouth. The crop will be far from
equalling the extra yield Of last year.
Early potatoes are not very successful.
but there is fair prospect for late vari-
cites. The potato bug has disappeared to
a large extent, but other pests have come.
Potatoes ought to be as plenty as last year.
The rye crop is one OF the most promising,
and is now being harvested in many loca-
lities. As usual the apple trees are tickle.
