Treasurer Gilfillan, as custodian of the In- dian trust fund, wrote to Governor Hagood, of South Carolina, that under the act of Congress of June 10, 1876, he held $125,000 of the bonds of the state of South Carciina, The bonds were dated January 1, 1856, and are of the denomination of $1,000, with interest coupons attached. The in- terest was 6 per cent, payable semf-annually. In his letter, Treasurer Gilfillan say The princi- pal of these bonis being due and payable, together with interest amounting to $123,760, in all $248,750, I have respectfully to ask what provision your state has made for their payment?” The Treas- ‘urer to-day received a reply that the bonds of the held by him, together with other state is- 'S, are embraced under an act of the state legis- Jature which provides that they were interchange- able at 50 per centum of the face value of the bonds and coupons into 6 per cent consols. No other provision has been made by law, either for the payment or funding of the rincipal und tnter- est of the bonds referred to by Treasurer Gilfillan. ‘The principal and interest of these bonds, amount- ing to $248,750, are therefore only provided for by the state in the issuance of consols to one half that amount—$124,3%5—bearing interest from June 1, 1880. ‘THe Case or Carr.

SCOVILLE’S OPENING ADDRESS. ——— ete HE ARGUES GUITEAU’S INSANITY. a HEREDITARY IN THE PRISONER'S FAMILY ——.+__ — ‘There was apparently no diminution of the crowd at the City Hall this morning. Stragglers began to arrive at the doors long before 9 o'clock. Police- men were stationed on the steps of the east wing, and none but bfficials and reporters were admitted to the corridor until the time for opening the court. Toom. The prisoner was brought upin the van, attended by bis guard of mounted police, at 9 o'clock, He was escorted at once to his room up stairs, where he was served with breakfast. Guiteau was in the best of humor, and the agitation, which was noticeable yesterday had apparently disappeared. The Scenes in the court room before the opening were Tepetitions of those of yesterday. The chamber Was densely packed with people before 9 o'clock. ‘The interest In the proceedings of the trial seems to be increasing. It was well understood what the government would establish by evidence. The defense 1s breaking upon novel and interesting ground. Mr. Scoville arrived at half past nine, Carrying in his hand merely two or three copies of different law journals, and his memorandum book. This seemed to be all the ammunition he had for the long Speech he was expected to make. Mr. Scoville “said before the trial com menced that he would probably speak all day, and that there would be no witnesses examined to-day. Anotabie thing about the gathering of spect:itors Js its appearance of superior rank and intelligence. The space within the bar resembles a section of the orchestra at the opera; the dull browns, grays and blacks of male attire being relieved’ by the glorious autumnal hues of female raiment. The counsel, Mr. John W. Guiteau and Mrs. Scoville arrived early. There were three overnment experts in their places to- iv, Drs. MacDonald and Kempster. ther experts in the room. AMONG THE SPECTATORS were Hon. J. Bradford Prinee, chief justice of New Mexico, and bride, Mrs. Blaine and several lady friends, Mr. A. S. Solomons and family, Dr. Sun- derland, besides many of the most distinguished members of the Washington bar. THE COURT WAS CALLED TO ORDER at 10:05 o'clock, and a few minutes later the pris- oner was brought in and the jury roll was called. Gulteau settled at once to his newspapers. Mr. Scoville’s Addrens. Mr. Scoville then took big stand on the Uttle Place before the jury and resumed the speech which he began yesterday. There was, he said, considerable prejudice against the defence of in- Sanity; for that reason he had asked the jurymen as to their opinions on thathead. There had been cases, he said, where the public were satisfied that criminals had escaped punishment by that de- fence. It was quite as probable, however, that this defence hi prevailed in cases where it was justly —_raised, quite as often, as it had been made the means of getting guilty men off. He expected the jurymen would, however, give due consideration ‘o this evidence. The defendant was himself be- fore them, and of course they-could not help being influenced by their personal judgment of the men? that Was notexactly the proper thing for them to do; they must keep their minds open to evidence and noi take their own opinion. THIS MATTER OF INSANITY, he sald, was not a new defenee by any means, but there had been a change in pubile opinion—a } change all the while progressing to better things. ‘Two hundred and tifty years*ago, in England, it the defence’ of insanity should 8S it was shown the defendant was no better than a wild beast. Public opinion and all authority then upheld thatias a rule; but there had been progress In England since’ that day in favor of a more enlightened and careful consideration of this thing. “About 1800, in Eng- land, there was a new rule estabiished—that, in order to show that a prisoner was responsible, it must be shown that he knew the erline was wrong: that he was doing a wrong aet. As this matter has been developed there has been an advance even upon that position, nq Uiat was this: That, although a person kn¢w the act was wrong, he might be imneiled forward by_an overnowering impulse. At this point many of the courts rested. ME. SCOVILLE DEFINES THE POSITION UE TAKES ON THE INSANITY QUESTION, ‘There 1s still a further stp, he sald, 1n this pro- gram,and that 1s the position he-wculd attempt to have the courttakein this case. That was that the whole question of the criminality of the ac- cused depended on whether the act was cone by a man Insanc—that 1s whether the man’s mind was deranged at the time—the New Hampshire do:- trine. Ita man did an act which he’ knew to be’ wrong, and still was impelled by an impulse which he could not Tesist, was held by the courts of the country as acquitting a man of responsibility. However, no two minds were alike: no two insane men were alike; so it was impossible to adopt a uniform rule. by which to determine the question | of insanity. If tt was shown that the prisoner Was of unsound inind; that he has been a mono- maniac and commits’ a crime, the jury must consller whether the man would . have committed the crime if he had been of sound inind, Judgment, and reason. Tits matter of progress Was not confined to questions of insanity, it was not very long ago in this country that peo- ple were punished for witchcraft. What a spec- tacle it would be if a Jury should sit t»-day to pass judgment upon a person charged with witcheraft. it was perfectly evident that soclety was prozress- ing, that there was a continuu onward moye- t. ‘This progress must goon. The jurymen ents In tits matter, and their verdict would be cited us Mustrating whether the American peo- ple would express the progress of the times. IT WAS A WELL-KNOWN FACT that In many cases the defence of insanity had been put in; that the man had been acquitted, and a post mortem examination showed the man Was insane—irresponsible for his act. In this very court, not long ago, a colored woman was convicted for murder; the case was taken to the upper court on exceptions. Meauwhile, the de- fendant died, aud a medical examinition showed beyond a doubt that the woman was losine, This Was the case of a woman named Nichols. That was one of numberless similar cases. In many instances, these persons, who are condemned to death and hung, have been shewn to be insane. Dr. MacDonald himself knew of such a case, and had testified as to it, This defense of insanity was NOT ALWAYS A SHAM OR DODGE. It was a real defence, and the jury could not afford to ignore it. People who were not experts could not always judge of these cases; neither could experts always pass upon them. These cases do not go by precedents, Oniy a few days ago an insane woman in an asylum in Kentucky was released and sent home as cured. After bel out two weeks, suddenly, without premont tion, she pounded the head of her little Cape Es a jelly, and cut it off with a cnife. That woman Was discharged as cured, showing that experts were not infallibl They alwaysmade the mistake on one stdé, stating that a person who was really insane was sane. They were never known to have pro- nounced @ Sane man insane. The insanity was not always Manifest. A case of absolute irration alism—where the reason is entirely gone—was somewhat rare.

He ts not positively cra: x but there is that lacking in the mind that totall: unfits him for business. He is unable to under stand that he can’t succeed. ‘There may be only a slight defect in the mind. A man starts out with a false proposition; he begins to reason from it, and from that time on reasons as correctly as any one could, yet, having started out with false premi- ises, his conclustons are false. THE CAUSE OF INSANITY. ‘There was one thing the experts could tell them With tojerable certainty; and that was, the cause of insanity. Unless it was a case that was per- fectly plain at first sight, these experts began to inquire of the previous life of the subject and his family history. The pecullarities of the parents often—he was about to say invarlably—appear in the child. “Insanity was hereditary. One of the principal things to be inquired about was as to he parents. ‘There were, however, a great. many immediate causes which always acted more readily if there was a taint in the biood. This deranze- inent of the mind, as he understood, came from some defect of or influence upon the brain. That Was according to the theory tht the seat of rea- son was In the brain. Sometimes it was found that there was malformation of the brain; some- timesa blow upon the head produced insanity. He understood that Sergeant Mason claimed to be insane on account of a blow received on the head. MANIFESTATIONS OF INSANITY. Insanity did not always manifest itself in the same way, though there was some uniformity in this respect. It was frequently the case that an insane person will plan or lay out work to do. He was told yesterday of the case of a man from Tilinois, at the time Hayes was elected. He came here just before Haves was Inaugurated. He had @ diagram of the Capitol, showing where the Pres- ident would stand, und’ he came on here for the purpose of getting a position where he could shoot the President. He was arrested and sent to an insane asylum—yet his plans had been I great precision. He was told that one ¢ usually present in cases of insanity was iri tability; another element tie experts would tell them was incoherence of thought and expres- Sion, but these evidences were not always present. 18 GUITEAU SHAMMING? It would appear, said Mr. Scoville, in evidence that the defendant knew nothing about insanity— had never studied the subject—and yet it was sald that he was simulating Insanity. If the news- Papers reported correctly, the district attorney: himself had said the man was Insane. Credible newspapers had also given currency to sueh state~ meni GUITEAU SAYS HE NEVER FEIGNS. Here Guiteau interrupted Mr. Scoville and sald: “ T never feign; Lact myself out, sane or insane.” Mr. Scoville said it would be shown that it was a trait of the prisoner’s family never to feign any- thing. He (Mr. Scoville) had said that the de- fendant was insane when he was a boy; when the President was shot he said at once that the man Was ¢1 . He understood President Gar- field and S iry Blaine had both expressed their belief that the man was insane. . THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY STATES THAT PRESIDENT GARFIELD AND SECRETARY BLAINE NEVER SAID GUITBAU WAS INSANE. District Attorney Corkhill here interrupted the Speaker, and said that President Garfield never said such a thing, and Secretary Blaine never Stated such a thing; he had stated under oath that he believed the prisoner was sane. Mr. Scoville said what he stated he had learned from newspapers. Persons simulating sanity usually feigned forgetfulness, but this did not appear in Gulteau’s case; another thing was that persons thus simulated generally seemed to sane by a sudden attack and then kept Imsane. That was not the case with really insane people. Some days they appeared perfectly ra- tional. A sane man aeenpune palm himself off as insane did not usually understand that. Another common thing with these pretenders was that when spoken to they hesitated a little, they did not speak right up as an insane person does. HE WANTED THE JURY TO JUDGE whether what Guiteau did were genuine acts, in- dicating the condition of his mind. He called the jury’s attention to certain things of which they would have to take account in settling this ques- tion. If aman was proved to have been insane once In his life it was presumptive proof that he might have been insane. at the time he committed the act. Nor was what the prisoner had done or said since July 24 any evide of the condition of his mind on that day. They claimed that in- Sane persons were different at diferent times. They Wanted to look first at his ily histo nd then his own history to show the condition of his mind on the 24 of Jul; He spoke of Guiteau’s Huguenct ancestry, and said the same relicious fervor and spirit that led the Huguenots ha rt to the Guipeau family of the present day. Mr. Scoville here gave 4A HISTORY OF THE GUITEAU FAMILY, from Dr. Francis Guiteau, the prisoner's grand- father, who settled In Utica, 90 years ago. He had found only one witness—an old man ip Dakota, &2 Years of age,who knew the grandfather and grand- mother. So the deposition of this witness would be the only authentic evidence as to the grandfather. The doctor had ten children. He understood that the evidence would show that one of the daughters, Sulla, had become insane before her deati, pos- ssed w.th the delusion that she and her fa maily were going to the poor house, She had a daugh- ter, named Abby,who lost her reason, became tal ative and silly; she talked always ou relizion, and other daurhter of (Mrs. Maynard,) was partially detormed; side of her head and body was not developed. Mrs. Parker, Julia’s sis. Mery, married a music _teacher, afterwards became insane, dying at Os? at condition. She had a son, Augustus, who inherited the musical talent of his father anc the Ins ine taint of hi other. He moved to Chi- cago and taught music: he sought the agency of the Decker pi:no in Chicago; it was held In abey- ance; he was kept hoping for it until it was given to some one else, and the revuiston of feeling made him insane. The other three sisters he knew little about. One of the sons of Dr. Francis Abraham died in Freeport, IL, having become in the latter irs of life weak-minded and sens control over hiraself. Thi: was now in an insane asylum; Julia one fully ter, e was ad- , Was a fair inference of the taint of insanity in the blood. Another son, Francis W. Guit-au, when quite young was disappointed in love: chal. lenged his rival to fight a duel; pistols were loaded with blank cartridges. Afterwards he learned the deception, and that discovery, together with his disappolutment, dethroned his reason, and he was finzlly sent to the Bloomingdale asy2 Jum, where he died. Another brother was Luther W. Gulteau. THE FATHER OF THE PRISONER, and the proot would show that he was erratic, peculiar, especially tn his religious views, though of undoubted integrity, and in his religious views he became so extreme that he thought it would be called insanity. One of his views was that he had come into a vital union with Christ, so that he was a part and parcel of the Saviour. During his last iness, In 1890, be was deranged most of the thas, He thought it would appear from the testimony of the witnesses that the disease would not have caused this insanity if he had not been tainted With hereditary Insanity. With him insanity took the form of certain delusions during his last iN- ness. At one time he believed his daughter was ‘oing to commit suicide, and grieved over It as ac- ually as though it had been a fact. Another time, when arrangements were being made for a Ma- sonic celebration in Chicago, he believed it was in fact an arrangement for his death and funeral. He wanted to avoid Chicago so as to escape the demonstration which he thought would be made over him. These were the facts as to the family history, jury. This defendant was born during that sick- fox: She continued ailing and sickly. Two more children were born—one deformed and the other ‘There a bout the defendant ‘was nothing pecullar a it asa boy. Once he was struck on the head with a stone which left ascar, which could now be seen on hishead. His mother died when “he was seven years old. The father was an intense religionist: did not give the boy the attention tn- | the high school so.as to prepare himself for the university. He took with him his Bible, which he 2 While studying in school he was studying his Bible and the papers of the Oneida Community. There was crowded upon his mind three times as much as upon ordinary students. GUITEAT JOINS THE ONEIDA COMMUNITY. In threemonths he begay to think that he had better go to the Oneida Community. In the fol- lowing June he left Ann Arbor, and Joined the Oneida Coramunity, putting his money tn tt—about #900—and fully believing that that was the only (rue course to happiness and to heaven. That was in June, 1860, He believed firmly that the | Community was destined to grow until all | the nations of the earth should be supplanted by it; he had not been there long before he conceived the tdea that he was to be the ruler of this great community. That was sald to be egotisin, but such. ee has frequently appeared | in insane people. He became thoroughly tnbdued | with the idea that he was to be the ruler of the | movement; he staid there Uil April, 1865. Of course the’ other members of the community did | not recoznize his pretensions; they “sat down on | him,” in popular phrase. He’ found he could not do there what he thought he Was capable of doing, and sald he wanted to go to New York. They gave him $100, a suit of clothes and some and started hima out. GUITEAT'S GREAT NEWSPAPER SCHEME. He went there to start a religious newspaper, Which was to subvert all the religions of the | World. Itwasto bea daily paper and take the | place of all the other newspapers in the city. He took an attic at Hoboken, lived on crackers and water and seemed entirely sanguine of doing Wi he had set out to do. At this time he did not question the integrity of the views of the Commu- nity. BACK TO ONRIDA, Before returning to the community he engaged fora while in a silk agency, then returned to Oneida and staid there for one year, fretting be- cause he could not do what the Lord wanted him todo. He has had nocther motive since he was elghteen years old than that he must do what the Lord wanted him to do. Mr. Scoville ave a rather interesting sketch of the internal = workings of the — community. With Guiteau’s pecullar disposition—his inspira- pecullar pressure of the community was brought to bear upon him until he felt that he must getaway. He wrote to him (Mr. Scoville) and he sent him money. He went away in the night, and as he went firmly belleved he was go- ing away from the road to heaven; he stopped | several times to turn back. Before that he (Mr. Scoville) bad gone there and endeavored to induce him to leave. 9 He held out every argument and inducement that he could bring to bear, but could influence him in no way, 8o sincere Was his bellef. Aiter leaving the com munity finally and going to New York, he wasstiil fora long time wedded to thelr bellefs. “Afterwards, upon thinking of their practices, his mind lost. 1ts conviction, so that he became able to understand that there was some other road to_heaven except through the Oneida Community, He remained in New York, studied theological works, and com- menced to go to the ¥. M.C. A. rooms, which he made his headquarters. GUITEAU'S FAILURE 48 A LAWYER. He had no definite idea of life, but after awhile returned to his original idea and studied law; he in a year or two went to Chicago, and was there admitted to the bar. Mr. Charles H. Reed, who passed upon his qualifications, would be here as a witness, He believed Mr. Reed had asked bim three questions and Guiteau had missed one, when Mr. Heed let hin Defend- ant Delieved him competent for any legal business; but he had no capacity for business. Finally he settled down to an ordinary collection business, ersistency qualifying bua especially for this business. If a man had aca- pacity for collecting, but not for instituting a sult ‘on a $10 note, he soon lost his clients. THE PRISONER COULDN'T STAND THIS. Mr. Scoville said that whenever Guiteau was op- posed by other lawyers he failed. Here Guiteau interrupted Mr. Scoville, his vanity having been touched, and saffl: “I brought a good Many sults. I may have had the reputation of being a fool when I was a lawyer, but I gave the otner side all they wanted.” Mr. Davidge asked Mr. Scoville if he had said that Mr. Heed had moved Guiteau’s adinittance to e Mr. Scoville proceeded to explain, and Guiteau interrupted him, saying: “No, sir; Gen. Reynolds habe ‘Mr. Scoville proceeded to talk again, when Gui- teau spoke up again to Mr. Davidge: “Gen. Rey- nolds made the motion. There he is judge, sitting behind you.” (Gen. Reynolds was sitting behind Mr. Davidge.) GUITEAU SATISFIED WITH HIS BIOGRAPHY AS GIVEN BY MB. SCOVILLE. Mr. Scoville hesitated upon going on, when the | prisoner spoxe up again: “Go on, Mr. Scoville, thatis an interesting story, and it is correct in detail” Mr. Scoville continued with hts narrative of Gut- teau’s life, speaking of his departure from Cl for New York. His address and geuliemaniy de- Porunent was such that he had no difficulty in getting collection business to do. “I had first-class references, ” interrupted the prisoner; “so I the ‘business ® At that time, said Mr. Scoville, the prisoner was In every sense 'a gentleman. “I had no bad Habits of any kind,” broke in the prisoner. GUITEAU CONTRADICTS HIS COUNSEL. Mr. Scoville proceeded to give an account of a case which Guiteau had tried with Mr. Charles H. Reed, in Which his manner and rambling disserta- ton led the former to think there was something wrong about him, Gulteau listened to this recital with great inter- est, then broxe out, saying: “That's not true. That ts absolutely false. The rest Of the statement is true. I never had a case with Charlie Reed in my life. I don’t want to interrupt your theory, however. I never had te reputation of being a fool as a lawyer. What you say about my muliarities is true. A great many people probably have thought I was insane, for at matter.” Mr. Scoville started to resume his address, when Mr. Da suggested that a recess should be taken. TSO ate p.mn., Ke court took a recess for half an hour. AFTER RECESS, Mr. Scoville? spoke at considerable of Gul- areer in the west, particularly his lecture nces, and Was repeatedly interrupted by the JONES, THE AVENGER. He is Released on $5,000 Bail.
