TWO CENTS. GUITEAU'S TRIAL TO-DAY. sr HE OPENS THE PROCEEDINGS. GENERAL SHERMAN A WITNESS. TESTIMONY AGAINST THE INSANITY THEORY. ‘The attendance at the Guiteau trial to-day was sufficient to reassure the doubting mind of the prisoner, who had misgivings lest public interest in him and his doings were failing. ‘The opening proceedings of the court were attended by little in- cident. Among the new faces visible in the court room was that of Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage, of the Brooklyn Tabernacle. He came in with Judge Porter, and sat with him at the prosecution table. Representatives Richardson, of Florida; Mason, of New York, and Gen. Sherman sat near the prose- cution table. McKenzie, of Kentucky, and Wise, of Virginia, also occupied seats within the bar. Judge MacArthur sat, during the morning, with Judge Cox. Guiteau Opens the Proceedings with a Speec! The court was called to order at 10:05, and the Prisoner was promptly placed in his seat. As soon as he was unmanacled he addressed the court. *@ the court please,” he said, “the American people do not desire that this case be tried again, and Ido not desire it, but I say, with the utmost Tespect to this court and jury, that I am not satis- fied with the way the political situation has been resented. That is the very gist of the whale ae- ence. I say that the President of the United would never have been shotif tt hadn’t been political situation, and I say Ihave a right asx your honor that you summon Gen. Grant and Senators Conkling and Platt, and those kind who were so down on President Garfield would not speak to him on the street, or him. T have a right to show my personal Telations—I may say cordial relations—with those men when Twas in New York. 1 was well dressed, well fed there,and lived at the Fifth Avenue Hotel.” GUITEAU EXCEPTS TO THE COURT'S RULING. “I will have to except to your honor’s ruling,” added the prisoner, “and the courtin bane will sustain it, and I will have a new trial.” Tue court remarked that the exception had already been noted. THE PRISONER TO MAKE THE CLOSING SPEECH. “T also desire to announce,” said the prisoner, “that I intend to make the closing speech in this case, a(ter Mr. Scovilie gets through. Mr. Scoville takes altogether too narrow-minded a view of this case.” s to the President's Testimony. Mr. Scoville safd that he had drawn up six inter- Togatories to submit to the President, and had sent them. He expected that the President would return his replies this morning, but he (Scoville) had not yet received them. ‘The prosecution objected that they had not been permitted to see the interrogatories. During the discussion Guftean frequently raised his Volee in protest. “I don’t think ft is at all ne- cessary,” he shouted, “for Gen. Arthur to be bored in this Way. If you want to put the President on the stand, I would like to talk to him.” Again he declared: “Gen. Arthur is President of the United States, and Tthink ft would be improper to drag him into this court.” After some di agreed to weive ir privilege of reviewing the interrozat the court said that whenever the President's: lies came in they would be admit- ted as evidence. Dr. E. C. Spitzka, of New York, end Nettie G. Rude, of Chi Were called but did not re- spond. Mr. § then asked for attzehments for both witnesses, which request the court GUITEAU DISCLAIMS ANY VANITY OR EGOTISM. ‘The prisoner, who had been reading a news- paper, brokein again: “Considering the pressure on me for autographs,” he said, “I want to say 1 don’t care a snap about greatness.’ I haven't any Vanity or egotism in this case. It is absolutely false what 1s said in the newspapers on that point. Mr. Scoville satd_he had relfed upon Dr. Spitzka as the chief expert witness for the defence. He understood that the prosecution had been after ‘Upon cross-examination, the witness said he had seep LW. Guiteau once fn hts last iliness; thought he Was then under the influence of morphine: knew that Mra. L. W. Guiteau was sick and feeble during the last few. of her life. Gardner W. Tandy, a boot and shoe dealer of Freeport, TIL, testified to his intimate acquaint- ance with Luther W. Guiteau; he lived for years Opposite Mr. Gulteau’s house;’ had never een anything that Indicated to him that L. W. Gut- (eau was insane; witness thought him of un- usual intelligence; witness had known the pris- oner when he was'a clerk in the office of the court clerk; Mr. Tandy’s opinions regarding the various members of the family were similar to those of the preceding witnesses. On cross-examination Mr. Scoville asked the witness for his idea of what constituted unsoundness of mind, and he replted that he was not an expert; L. 'W. Guiteau had never expressed to him a conviction that he would never die; witness thought the old gentleman was delirious during his last tliness; he never knew of any impairment of mental faculties of Abram Guiteau; his acquaintance with Abram’s fam- ily was only a “store acquaintance;” they used to buy goods of witness. Dr. Benjamin P. Buckley, another Freeporter, the family physician of L. W. Guiteau during the last years of hls life, was sworn, and testified that, the old gentleman was considered an honest atid upright man; he was of fine Intellect, and was a public spirited man; as a patient he was mild, Pleasant and confiding; the witness had never seen any indication of insanity in L. W. Guiteau. ‘Nor did any one else,” added Mr. Corichlll “Are you testifying,” asked Mr. Scoville, sharply. “No; ‘butt would ike to,” retorted Mir CORBI “Then you get on the stand,” said Mr. Scoville. ‘The witness never heard of any peculiar beliets of the elder Guiteau. “He only taught those things in the fam- fly,” interrupted the prisoner. “He did not round the streets talking like an idiot or a jack- ass.” ‘Witness knew very little of Abram Guiteau; at- tended him tn his last illness; remembered noth- ing about his case that was unusual. ie Was. asked if he did not know of L. W. Gut- teau’s distributing his property around on the com- ity system. ‘That's the way father used to do it,” Inter- rupted the prisofier, “He took that man North and took him to the house and supported him and his faintly on the money he ought to have sent me to college with.” hat's my opinion of North: I agree with you on that,” said the district attorney. JOHN W. GUITEAU SPEAKS IN DEFENCE OF HIS SISTER FLORA. Mr. Scoville having asked the witness if he knew anything about Flora Guiteau being said to be insane and as to measures taken to send her to | an asylum, Mr. John W. Guiteau rose to his fect and sald: “If the court please I wish to make a request of the prosecution to ask witness the exact nature of my sister’s fllness. I consider it a burning shame that this stigma should rest on this girl.” It leaves the {dea that she was sent to ‘St. Louis because she was insane.” The district attorney sald he also thought it unpardonable that a young girl should be smirched in this w: “If there is any remark that 1s unpardonable,” said Mr. Scoville, with some show of temper, “It 4s such a remark as that from the district at- torney.” . ‘The witness, at the request, of the district at- torney, then answered Mr, Guitéau’s question. He sald Flora Guiteau was suffering with ophthalmic goitre; she was a girlof remarkable ability.and Superior mind. “I am very sorry,” said the prisoner, “that my half-sister has been named in this case.” So far as I know she fs a very high-toned lady. I send her my greetings, I haven't seen her for several years.” NEVER HEARD OF INSANITY IN THE GUITEAU FAMILY UNTIL THE TRIAL BEGAN. Smith D. Atkins, editor of the Freeport Repudli- can, was called, and gave the same testimony in preceding witnesses Freeport as a Methodist ininister; he W from the Methodist church there, the witness said, for lascivious conduct or teachings. Witness knew of Mr. Amerling. He was not a -man_ whom, wit- ness thor Mr. L. W. Guiteau would assoctate with. ‘The witness never heard of any insanity in the Gulteau family till this trial begen. “Mr. North,” said the prisoner, “was expelled from the church because he believed in the Oneida Community doctrines.” ‘The witness, on cross-examination, sald he had no reason for ‘knowing anything about Mr. North except common report; he had never heard any- thing against him ex@pt his tneli: the Oneida Community doctrines. @UITEAU AGAIN, ‘When the witness was excused the prisoner ex- plained again: “I don’t believe the Onetda Com- him as a witness for the prosecution, and he had decl'ned to come,as his mind was already made up as to the insanity of the prisoner. Gen. Sherman as a Witness. Mr. Scoville then announced that he rested his case, and the government began the rebuttal testi- mony by calling Gen. Sherman to the stand. “Wm. T. Sherman, general of the army of the United States,” replied the witness when asked his name and occupation. The witness testified that he was in Washington on the 24 of July when the President was shot. District Attorney Corkhill then handed to Gen. Sherman a letter, which the General satd was handed to him at 11:45a.m. on the day of the assassination, at his office in the War department by Major Brock and Major Twin- ing. The military fore of the United States here Was ordered out instantly at the first intimation that the President was shot; the shooting of the President gave reason to ap prehend that {t was a part and parcel Of a conspinicy pervading the country, and, of course, the military of the country was bound’ to take precautions ‘against any emergency that might arise; the witness had made such personal examination as he could; when he had learned that there was no conspiracy, the army assisted the civil authorities, at the’ request of Major rock. Gen. Sherman was then cross-examined by Mr. Scoville only so far as to reiterate that he had at first supposed there might have been a conspi- racy. ‘Wen the General was stepping from the stand, Guiteau called to him: “ Resutting, General, from the political situation, wasn’t it? Gen. Sherman did not on to reply, but Mr. ave any foundation Scoville asked him: “Did you for supposing there was aconspiracy other than your own opinion?” “None,” sald the witness, and he added: “I came to the conclusion that the act was that of one man—one man alone.” GUITEAU THANKS GEN. SHERMAN. As the General was leaving Guiteau called out to him in a familiar way. “Much obliged to you, General, for sending troops for my protection at that time.” ‘Testimony in Rebuttal as to Heredi- tary Insanity. Edwin P. Barton, a lawyer, testified that he had resided in Freeport, DL, since the spring of 1856. Regarding Mr. L. W. Guiteau, father of the pris- ener, the witness said he had the clfaracter of a very reliable, honest, straight-forward, clear- headed business man. He was Intelligent to an unusual degree. The witness was with L. W. Guiteau at the Ume of his death, and had drawn bis will for him some months before. The wit- ness never had any doubt but he was perfectly sane; the idea never occurred to him that he was insane. In reference to Abram Guiteau, he testi- fled that he had no doubt of his sanity. He went over the names of all the members of the family munity bellevers of Freport were ever charged with lascivious conduct.” At 12:30, at the suggestion of Mr. Corkhill, a Tecess for one hour was taken. GUITEAU FRIGHTENED BY SCHOOL BOYS THIS MORN- Ina. When Guiteau leaves the court house in the van each day there 1s more or lessehooting and yelling by the crowd, and frequently, on the trip down crowds of colored people and school boys jeer at the prisoner. In some instances, in the residences along the streets through which the van passes, old women are seen shaking their fists at the vehicle. Guiteau does not, of course, see the de- monstrations against him. Since he was shot at by Jones he does not stand in the van nordoes he go towards the front partor tt, through which the ball Ee his favorite position being the seat near door. ‘The cries do not have much effect in the afternoon, but when the school boys and others hoot at him on the upward trip he is somewhat alarmed. This morning quite a crowd met the van in the neighborhood of 8th street east with cries of “Shoot him,” “Hang him,” &c. The prisoner made a jump from the rear endof the Yehicle to the front, and had hardly recovered from his fright when the van arrived at the court house. ‘TRIAL NOTES. . ‘The fact that but few of the twenty od experts summoned for the defendant gave their testimony excites some remark, and tt is said that nearly all of them came to the conclusion that they could do the prisoner no good by their testimony. A few experts had interviews with the prisoner Monday afternoon, but none of them appeared yesterday on the witness stand. The prisoner stated yester- day that the experts requested that he should take some medk-ine before making the examina- tion, but he declined. They talked with him for about one and a half hours and examined his eyes, felt his pulse and left. Mr. Scoville during the past few days has _mod- ifed his views regarding the probable length of the trial. He stated to-day to a Star reporter that he had expected that it would take a week to ex- amine the expert witnesses on his side. Instead of that, one aiternoon sufliced. District Attorney Corknill said to-lay that he expected the trial ‘would not last more than a week longer. “He is very ungrateful,” said Mr. Join W. Gul- teau, referring to his wretched brother. “He has no feeling at all for his relatives. When he was giving his testimony telling about wandering over the country with that book, It brought the tears to my eyes. When I went up to his room, to give him his sister’s love, he saw the tears in’my eyes. I took bis hand und said: ‘Frank sends you her eres All he said was: ‘What are you crying that way fort?” Xr. John W. Guiteau said last evening that so far as he was concerned, the question of jurisdic tion of this court would not be raised, unless the jury returned a palpably unfair verdict. Guiteau had many visitors at the jail yesterday. He was very cheerful, and expressed his opinion that the trial would be over in a few days. The record in the Guiteau case, being made by Messrs. H. H. Alexander and Edward D. Easton. the ofictal ‘stenogray phere, now comprises 800 he knew, and gave his opinion that they were ail sane. He sat the same of the prisoner, 80 long as he khew hii, though he had not seen him since Upon erdxe-examination the witness said that L. W. Guiteau suffered under some delusion in his illness; he said he had many discussions on re- ligious toptes with L. W. Guiteau; the witness did ‘not remember that he had reported to Mr. Burcb- ard, when L. W. Guiteau was a candidate for an office in a bank, that the latter said he believed he Would never die; he understood Mr. Guiteau had a fysteam & HUTCHINSON, 317 NINTH STREET, SAVE AN ENTENSIVE STOCK OF GOODS IN ALL ‘THEIR LINES.

In the Senate to-day Mesgra., Sherman, Pendie- ton, Dawes, Lapham, Bayard and Morgan were ap- pointed by the chair on the jotpt committee for the Preparation of a memorial upgn the death of the late President Garfield. Among other communicatigns laid before the Senate was one from Acting Attorney General Phillips, inclosing the annual report of the Attor- ney General. ; A portion of the morning hour was consumed in an uninteresting discussion upon the propricty of dispensing with the reading at length of commu- nications from heads of departments addressed to the President of the Senate, thé question arising upon a communication from the Secretary of War in relation to accommodations for the increased clerical force in the Surgeon General’s office. ‘The President pro tem. ruled that, in accordance With the practice of his predecessor, the paper would be read at length, unless otherwise ordered, and after remarks by Senators upon different in terpretations of what had heen the practice here- tolore, a vote was taken, when a single response was given both in the negative and affirmative. ‘The Chair caused some lite merriment by ob- serving that as the vote was a tie he was obliged exercise bis constitutional prerogative, und would vote aye. ‘The reading then proceeded. A large number of bills “of a private nature, mainly for individual reitef, were introduced and referred. ‘The Chair submitted certain proceedings of the Reformed Episcopal church convention, held in the city of New York, in May List, on the subject amy.

Upon the concluston of morning business (at 1:45 p.m.) the chair snnounced that Mr. Morrill’ tarifl cagnmnission resoiution was the next business in order, and awarded the floor te that Senator. Mr. Morriil, after commenting on the deluge of bills with willen the Senite had beon flooded this morning as a possible indicution that, if they were all to pass, the government would be unable to spare any’ of its revenue and: his own position would to that extent be modified, said he preferred not to weary the Senate with along speech at this time, and moved an »dsournment, Agreed to, and at 1:45 the Senate adjourned. ‘The Talk About the Cabinet. THE SLATE SAID TO BE COMPLETED. ‘The belief is that the President has made up the Cabinet slate, and the names of those selected will be sent to the Senate at an early date. It is said that a day or two ago a party of Senators called upon the President to urge the claim of a well-known public man for a Cabinet portfolio, when the President brought the discussion to an abrupt termination with the statement: “Gen- tlemen, the matter is already closed.” While it is generally thought that Mr. B. Harris Brewster will be made attorney general, those Who ought to know claim that the appothtment will only be temporary, and that in the course of afew months Emory Storrs, of Illinois, will suc- ceed to the office, and Secretary Lincolu be given an important foreign mission. ‘The rumor 1s abroad, Wo, that the President has decided tn his own mind the person whom he contemplates appointing on the Supreme Bench to fill the Clifford vacancy. Secretary Hunt will not leave the Cabinet inside of a mont! yet. ‘The ladies who strive for women suffrage were well represented at the Capitol to-day. They want a standing committee in each house'on women’s rights. The House Committees. Speaker Kelfer is at work making up the com- mittees of the House, which will probably be ready by the middle of next week. All pubitshed statements as to who are to receive the important chairmanships are purely speculation. One of the Speaker's friends said this morning, thet some ot e new members will be given prominent places. House Officers Appointed. Doorkeeper Brownlow, of the House of Repre- sentatives, has made the following appointments: Richard W. Austin, of North Carolina, to be as- sistant doorkeeper; Col. J. R. Popham, of Virginia, to be assistant doorkeeper in charge of the docu- ment room. Col. Popham is a readjuster. M1 George McNeir, a son-in-law of Representative Burrows, of Michiman, has been appointed assist- ant postinaster of the House of Representatives. ‘The point ts ratsed t! Col. John R.
