The ‘scenes In tha cotrt-room are without prece- dent in the ‘history of jurisprudence. ‘Tho Amerlean people who watched the bulletin. three painful summer months doubtless presumed that the trlat of the nssasin who commited ‘the diabolical crime would be attended with great solemnity. There is a vast audience there, but it Is Ike an audicnee that visit a cirens In whiett Guiteau is a distinguished clown. ‘Cho ,President’s, assasin {s the cen- trat figure of A GRINNING ASSESIDLY, Ho takes the people, Court, and prosecution into his contidence, and makes grim jests about his alliance with the Delty. He hag protested that he intended to be the leading counsel in his own case. He ls more than that. Hoe usurps tho function of | the Judge. He corrects and rebukes witnesses, He cails lawyers to order. Ile gives directions to the court officials, He patronizes the Judge. He constantly inter- rupts the proceedings to give his own vlows as to the sufticiency of testimony which Is presented with a view to prove his own in- sanity. He Is permitted to make twenty speeches a day to the Court and jury for tha purpose of seeking to shield himself from the consequences of hisown crime. Mean- while, tho prosecution, of the eminence of whose criminal Inwyers we have heard so much, sit there and frequently remonstrate, itis true, but the remonstrances are made in anerveless sort of way, The prosecution may be learned and able, but IT LACKS ENERGY. Gultean could teach them zeal, as he at- tempts to teach the Court and the jury law, It is difleult to understand why the Judgo does not Insist that Guitean shall behave. Much is heard about tho respect dne to tho Taw, and the duty that a great Government owes to Itself to protect the worthless life of the malicious villain Gulteau when in transit from the jall to the court-roomm, yet the ordorly courso of procedure in a court of justice -Is each day disregarded, and the dignity and authority of tho court itself is each day defied by tha tur- bulent insolenco of the asgasin, Scones are permitted at the trinl of the President’s mur derer which would not be allowed in a Jus- ticu's Court AT THE TRIAL OF A CHICKEN-THIEF, Judge Cox isan able and a just Judge, but he ought not to be powerless to enforce order, and ought not to acknowledge his in- ability to compel the miserable criminal in tho dock to respect the dignity of the court. Tho quivering wretch {8 abject cuough when crluging with fear. Ilo sceks to hide himself between the, Balllffs, and entreats them to protect him from the vengeance of an enraged populace, witch hisses and surges about the prigon-van each day when he arrives and luaves; but he leaves his fears at thu courtroom door, and resumes his brutal, uative insolenco, TheJdudge admon- ishes and throatens, but no threuts are exe- cuted, It {s said that ho has doubts as to his right, under tho Constitution, to exclude Guitesu from the courtroom ponding his trial, but the Constitution does not say that the prisunor shall not bo bound and gageed if hele disorderly, ‘Tho Judgo imay not ro- movo Guiteau from tho courtroom, but he mmay, perhaps, ORDER A STRAIGHT JACKET AND IRONS, Porsona connected with tho prosecution nre suid to have expressud fear that Scoville, by his {ngenlous story and the blography, in which it is claimed he has suppressed essen- tla? facts and perverted otliers, haa won tho sympathy of the jury, Yot uo impartial witness, unless he hos a disoasod sympathy for the eriininal, who has watched tho trial, ean sny thot ho has ever scon Guiteau do an act that could not under the circum- stances be expinined by reason, or even make a nilstako In the technical details of his case, Hfo has caused his lawyers a great. deat of Annoyance, but It fs worthy of note that he hag not dono one thing or-said oye word that can weaken tho defense, Whether or not Guiteau {!s playing a part, the fact remains that the apparently simple plea of Scoville Is supplemented by the cunning questions. and coments, of the crafty suggestions ang even the violent -Iusolence, of. his cllont, Insane men wre sald to be ineapabla of continuous reasoulug, yet Gulteau, within two weeks, hasmado a writ- ton argument, nearly two coluuns long, and never foramoment during ‘the long dally trial does he forget the lino of his defense, the President, who watched with him ti “Tho scandals of tho Guiteau trial almost fm'tho public the real motives by was controlled, Ie blasphemea ee: his partnership with the Deity,” and~“~the \audience Jawgh dt him, but he fs’ very anxious that tho te Prat the Stalwart newspapers ot- ticking President Garfield on account of the bnkling-Robertson incident shall be pre- sented to the Jury. He planned his defense at tho time he was practicing with his bull- dog atthe foot of Seventeentli street, with the marsh reeds foramark, He had been careful to collect the most venomous of the Stalwart attacks upon Garfield, te ar- ranged itso that the extracts should be dis- covered a8 soon as the murderous act was done, Le took thom with him to the depot, He _ addressed thom to source through which he thought they could obtain publicity, and Jefe them in the custody of the newsdeuler at tho station, who ho knew would {mmediately surrender them to the authoritles, and he clamors for them now. Today he said: “I may state, your Houor, that I left at the depot a number of | papers at the time of ny arrost. I NAD FORTY On FIFTY SLIps from the leauing newspapers, showing tho political situntion at that time, These slips show the action that fmpelled me on to the ‘President. By rending these alips my mind was fed on.. There were about forty or fitty slips denouncing Gen, Gnrileld, and it was by living on such things that L was led on to any ingpiratton.” ‘And again, later, address- ing the Court, without rising from his chair, ns those who have not murdered a President aro required to do, he sald: “I ean tell whether they are correct by reviewing thom. It is very Important that these slips be pro- duced, because they show the polltical situa~ tion last spring—cilppings from leading nows- papers showing. how the President was de nounced.” ‘Lhere wag another {linstration today of the soundness of lis reasoning pow- er. In one of his casual utterances, yester- day, he had used the word “Julius” in con- nection with the nesrd race. Today, remem- bering, evidently, that thore Is ONE COLORED MAN UPON THE JUnY, and thatthe fact had not been overlooked that the defense generally peremptorily chal- Jenged all colored men, Gultenu said: “Yes- terday I used the word ‘Jullus? In connee- tion with the negro. Tineanut no discredit to the ruce. Itis getting now so a colored man ig 1 good deal better than a white man,” What shrewder thing could the most skillful critninal lawyer, pleading even for his own life, have done than this ? If this is madness, it is madness with a remarkable method. So it has been all through the trial. fl GUITEAU MOUTHS, mnkes slde remarks, says things which make the nidlence Jaugh, seems absent-minded, is grotesque, blasphemos, raves, pounds the table, but he nover fora moment loses tho thrend of theargument, Le makes subtle «distinctions as to words, he breaxs in and eumments upon s witness’ manner ‘of expres- afon, he suggests questions for cross-examl- navdon, and does everything thats sano man woulddo, Hedi another thing that a ra: {lonaf. man might not—“ abnormal ogo-.. | “incoherence of thought,” ‘“pré-"" ism’? tented | religious detief?? is what ono of Guitana oxperte called ‘It today—bat-te was an “abnormal egotism,” that. samo wit- ness admitted, which cnablea Guiteau “to “borrow,’? which, outside the soft language of the dor’ense, means to “steal,” some clothing, disappear suddenly from tho town, and never. think of returning it, It 1s tho “abnormal exotism” of a dead-beat, con- trolled by violent passion and Indescribable malice. : TH, TRIAL. Not 80 LARGE A cnowD. Wasrtnaroy, D. 0., Nov. 23.—The attend. ance at the Criminal Court this morning was sensibly diminished on account of the rain- storin, Whilo Gultcau waa taking his break- fast at the city-lall he expressed dissatisfac- tion at the releaseuf Jonesupon ball, When the court opened Scovilte made a formal. re~ quest for the papers taken from Gultean nt tho time of his arrest, stating that they wero material evidence for the defense, and since the prosecution had not needed them he could seo no reason why they shouldbe with- hold. ‘The District-Attornoy offered to fur- nish copies of the papors, but Scoville inslst- ed upon his rights In tho matter, and asked for tho originals. WAT IMPELLED GUITEAU ON. Pending tho -discusston, Gulteau insisted upon belug heard, and gaid: “Ican throw Ught upon this, At the time of my arrest L had forty or fifty editorial slips showing tho political situation In May and\June Inst. ‘These alips show tho action and one of tho forces that impelled me on to the President.
