INSANITY DEFE ALREADY DE- Sceciat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasiinatos, 2. C., ec, 1L—Asthe time for tho examination of the experts in the Gultenu Case nupronches It becomes more evident that the insanity defense ts already destroyed. Dr. Nichots, of the Bloomingdale Asylum, New York, furmerly Superintendent of the Govorn- tment Asylum bere, who hus been relied upon ns one of the leading witnesses for the defense, hus,said that, if bob d been asked by Mr. Sco- ville whether he considered Gulteau account- ablo or not, he would have been compelled to say that he believed the prisoner fully responsi> bie for hiserime. Me ndded that Dr. Godding, of the Government Insano Asylum here, who was iso eniicd to the stand by the defense, had sald that he, too, belleved Guitcan accountable, and would have so unswered- bad tho question beenusked him. Dr. Nichols says thnt the cx- perts ure practically unanimous tn tholr opinion as to Guiteau's necountabllity, They have been forced to this conclusion by their observa- Yon of him, His pulse, the molsture of his skin, his appetite, and other Points upon which experts baso their opinion 18 to Insanity, outside of observation, also couyinco the inedical gentlemen present of Guitcau's sanity. It is the commonty received opinidn bore that Mr. Scoviile felt that a.direct question as to Gulteau's sanity asked of bis own witnesses would have RESULTED DISASTROUSLY TO 118 CLIENT. therefore, that be contented Lilmseif with the werk ‘supposititious ense which be put to thom, “It is betfieved that In norecent murder trint bas there ever been such unanimity among the ex- ports as with the gentlemen assembled here. ‘The suppusititious cuse, Yor that inntter, re- duced to simp's English, meant only this: * Js a inan sane when he fs insnney* To this moment there hus not been a particle of evidence to prove that Guiteau was Inboring under un ine sure delusion ut the time be killed tho Prest- dent. Tho only person who bas unequivocatly testitied ton belief that the assnsin was Insane was Gulteau himself, and upon that point he certainly {8 not an authority.

It ts sald’ to be 3 ovilic’s plan, in ease that Gulten shull be convicted, to move an arrest of judgment—that the court hus no jurisdiction. Jt is suid that upon that nw quesdon Mr, Scoville, who bas been unuble to secure any legal help, willhave eminent lawyers to nsslst him, Monmwhile the trial ts threatened with disaster owing to tho Ittness of some of the jury. Neurly all of them: hve some disorder of the stotnach.owlny to high living.to which nono of thom are accustomed, the almost entire want of exerchic, and the vitiated atmosphere of the court-roum.
