Id.—'The Times, following up the charges of cannibalism, which it made against the Oreely survivors, print* the following this morning: The remains of Private Charles B. Henry, who was shot at the Greely camp on Smith's sound on June 6 at the time the survivors were reduced to the direst extremity for food, were found by the rescuing party from an eighth to a quartet' of a mile beyond the tent of the starving men. There was scarce ly anything left but a pile of glistening bones, stripped of nearly every trace of flush except some of the lower part of the trunk. The head was missing, and could not be found, so that it was at first supposed that the remains were those of Dr. Pavy. The bones were placed in a bag for removal to the Bear, with the miming of six others of the ill-fated expedi- Portbmocth, N. H., Aug. 14.—Early yesterday morning CoL Kent obtained an interview with Lieut Greely, who admits that Henry had a military execution on the 6th day of June. As early as March it was suspected that Henry was stealing the limited food which was apportioned out to the sailors for their subsistence. Lieut Greely had hard work thereafter to protect the man's life. It became necessary in order keep up discipline to inform Henry that he would be shot if the practice continued, and that a similar fate would be meted out to any. other member of the party who should be detected in a like crime. If Henry had been permitted to continue his stealings unmolested the balance of the party would have surely starved to death and Henry alone survived. Kew York, Aug. 14. —Berliner A Strauss, manufacturers of neck wear at Nu. 491 Broad' way, went around among their creditor! yesterday to endeav4tt to get a settlement, and proposed to pay 25 cents on the dollar in'three and six mouths. From some of the creditors it was learned that they claimed that one bf the causes of their failure was an defalcation by a former bookkeeper, . whichiwas only discovered a short timo ago.

One lawyer had commenced action, but abandoned tho'ense for lack of fees. Mr. John Remsen, who formerly kept the Jarpaica poorhouse, says the couple ought to be in the poorhou%instoad of an asylum. "They were not thought to be crazy!" he sai3, "until Francis brought an action against his father for $10,000." Daniel Manning, chairman of the state committee, left town yesterday for a short vacation. The executive committee held a short consultation in the morning and transacted some routine business. Assistant Secretary Brown said that answers were beginning to come in to the committee's letters, which were sent to every election district in the state, asking for the names of Democrats who would not support Cleveland. Those answers, he said, shpwed that the defection in tho party was nothing like as great as had been represented.

A search was then instituted, when it was found that Henry had, among other articles, stolen and secreted a pair of sealskin boots which had belonged to the hunter of the party. Lieut Greely was, therefore, forced, in order to maintain military discipline and to protect the lives of his other comrades, to issue a written order that Henry be shot, which order was carried into effect «n June 6.

A day or two after the squadron began the homeward trip the box was removed from the deck, and the officers determined to remove all suspicion of the terriblo scenes of cannibalism enacted at tho camp on Cape Sabine, prepared the bones for burial. Sticks of wood were procured, and to these, fitted to proper length, the bones were tiod, until all were as nearly in place as it was possible to get them.

It was this bundle of wood that was brought to New Yoik, claimed by friends of Private Henry and buried at Cypress Hills cemetery. So well had the work been done that it is do ibtful if those handling the mummy-like remains at St Johns had any suspicion that there was one of the bundles which was largely made up of wood. Rundstein left, tlio firm about eight months ago and went west, but. is said that the alleged irregularities were only discovered about the; 1st of the present month, and the firm, immediately after learning the condition of affairs, made an assignment. Mr. Berliner said yesterday that ho did not care .to say anything at. present about the matter. He had submitted their offer to compromise at 2Dcents pn the dollar (o Ibe creditors, and explained the causes of their troubles. Two creditors had already accepted the offer, and others had promised to do so. When asked regarding the alleged defalcation he said that the books had been manipulated by Mr. Rundstein, and they were in such confusion that the firm had not been able yet to learn the extent of their losses. He could not tell whether the amount was $1, $1,000 or $100,- 000; he did not think, however; that it A ROYAL CAPTIVE. A RIOT IN CHICAQO.

About fifty shots were exchanged, windows in the neighborhood were smashed, and everybody ran to shelter. Henry Heck, a union moulder, but recently arrived from PJtteburg, was killed, and Fred. H.

That the bones were so cleanly stripped of flesh leads to but one conclusion. There v an no game abotit the camp on Smith's Sound exoeptlng a few foxes, hares and ptarmigans. There were no carnivorous animals, as the record of the relief expedition shows, to disturb the remains of the lead, neither did they decay. The flesh that remained on the frames of those even dead had not rotted or fallen away. Sergt Cross, the first of the party who lied, passed away on Jan. 1& He was a large man, and when taken from the shallow grave his body was found heavier than any of the others. The flesh was quite firm, and showed no signs of decay excepting a portion of one hand, which was slightly discolored.
