THE IRREPRESSIBLE GUITEAU | Scapa HE REFUSES TO KEEP cogtet ps INSTRUCTS MR. PORTER AS TO THE LAW. eee“ <eekeos In the Guitean trial this afternoon, after the report in onr first edition closed, the cross- | examination of Dr. Talcott was contin ued. The witness thought that the statement of the | prisoner that he was impelled to his act by a power he could not resist, if taken as trae, | would not tudicate insanity, The witness in- | sisted on using the term disease of the brain in connection with insanit “It depends entirely said the prisoner, “upon whether aman has been good or bad, as to this man’s opinion whether bis mind is dis- eased or not.” Mr. Scoville having propounded to the wit ness his own hypothetical question, the witness | said he would, betore he could answer, require | an interpretation of the word inspiration, and other terms in the question. GUITEAT'S QUESTION. The prisoner, interrupting the examination later on, asked: “Can a man be Insane in the commission of an act and sane before and after | the commission of the act?” “No, sir; I think not,” réplied the witness. “That's enough on you,” said the prisoner. “You can get your money and go.” “You don't believe in spiritology, do you doc- | tor?” asked the prisoner a few minutes later. The doctor did not reply, and Mr. Scoville was going on with another question, when the pris- oe said: “Wait a minute, let us get him on that.” The court remarked that the poet woult | have to ask his questions through Mr. Scoville. | A few minutes later the prisoner said: “Now will you answer my question about spiritology.” Mr. Porter toid the witness that he need not | answer. “havea right to be heard,” sald the pris-| j oner. | “He is not a member of the bar,” remarked | Mr. Porter to the court. Mr. Scoville said he would come to the ques- tion soon that the prisoner wanted to ask. “You are doing first rate, Mr. Scoville,” said the prisoner. “Mr. Reed is detained this after— noon by his case at the Treasury.” GUITEAU INSTRUCTS MR.
