This is not the Monitor ship...I think this is a club from Weehawken, NJ. There was a baseball club there and a place called the Monitor Base Ball Club Grounds. I know a google search will turn up some old NY Times articles on the place and team. A few years ago I found a reference to a few Phillies from 1890 playing an exhibition against them. That would be my guess as to the origin of the picture.
