JOHN TRIPP. 2d Edition. THE = GUITEAU SENSATION © TO-DAY. ABUSIVE REMARKS OF THE PRISONER, JUDGE COX EXPLAINS HIS LENIENCY. HE SENDS GUITEAU TO THE PRISONER'S bock, * A paragraph in the first edition of Tak Star stated that Guitean had been put in the prison- er’s dock. The following fs the report of the proceedings in detail after My. Davidge had sec- onded Judge Porter's motion to take that course: Mr. Dayidge, proceeding, sald: “Gen. Sickles when tried in this court occupied the dock.” “He did not appear as his own counsel,” in- terrupted the prisoner. “The rule was not relaxed in his case,” con- tinued Mr. Davidge, “though he was a member ¢ | GUITEAU THREATENS THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY. of the bar and a member of the House of Repre- sentatives.” His outrageous, scandalous con- duct offered by him to-day to his (Mr. Day- idge's) senior was, he thought, sufficient in itself to justify the! summary removal of the prisoner to the dock. JUDGE PORTER INDIGNANT. Mr. Reed rising to reply made use of a remark which was misunderstood by Judge Porter, who said indignantly: “I am no criminal.” *“I did not say you were,” said Mr. Reed. Judge Porter said he misunderstood the re- mark from a defect in his hearing. “From stupidity,” interrupted the prisoner. MR. REED’S PLEA FOR THE PRISONER. Mr. Reed in opposing the motion said that if there is a fair reas onable doubt of the prisoner's insanity it was but humane to treat him kindly. Referring to the kind treatment already accord- ed to the prisoner by the court Mr. Reed said posterity would commend rather than condemn the court. Nothing would please himself and his associate (Mr. Scoville) so much as to have some measures—not unkind or harsh—taken to keep the prisoner quiet. ALL GUITEAU WANTS I8 TO BE LET ALONE. “Tt can be done,” said the prizoner, “because Iwill do anything his honor says. All I want,” continued Guiteau after a pause, “on the part of the prosecution, is that they shall not abnse me. The way they have dug up my record is engugh to exasperate any man. Its an outrage on the American people and the jury.” Mr. Scoville concurred with Mr. Reed, and re- marked that he himself had been seriously an- “Because it is your own fault. You are a Jackass on this case,” broke in the prisoner. | “You are doing well enough on your theory, but your theory is too small.” AN EXTRAORDINARY CRIMINAL. The prisoner haying remarked that he was not an ordinary criminal, Mr. Davidze said: “We | pe him a most extraordinary crimiu “More than you can manage, I guess, "sald the prisoner. “That's what makes you so e: Mr. Corkhill, speaking to the motion, urged that the time had come w hen the court should act. The course of the court in treating the prisoner had been, he said, the best way of proving the mental condition of the prisoner. “Let him go on then, if his honor is doing right,” broke in the prisoner. | | Mr. Corkhill having referred to aa abuse heaped upon hin— “1 will give you worse than you have had yet, if you put me in the dock,” said the prisoner. The district attorney insisted that the police guard should be removed. “I want the m: shal of this court to take this man to the dock,” said Mr. Corkhill. “Sit him there and: guard | him there. I want the special guard removed.” He referred to the extraordinary privileges given the prisoner. ‘ou,can’t convict me,” said the prisoner, “and now you want to shoot me. T don’t think the Lord will allow it, Mr. Corkhill.” VIOLENCE OF THE PRISONER—HE nas 2aE or TRICT ATTORNEY AN INFE! ETCH. “The American people will have saimothine to say about this, Corkhill. God Almighty will curse you, you infernal wretch you, and any other man who attempts to do me violence.” Mr. Scoville, rising, said that when the dis- trict attorney gets up here and gives notice that the prisoner is to be placed where he will be un- protected, and virtually invited the assassin to step up and shoot him, he would not concur in the motion. Judge Porter said the imputation east upon the district attorney called tor some notice by the court. “You and the American people do not agree on that, Mr. Porter,” remarked the prisoner. Judge Porter, proceeding, said that without the interposition of the prisoner, the trial would have terminated three weeks azo. GUITEAD ACCUSES JUDGE PORTER OF AN UN- ‘TRUTH. When Judge Porter finished speaking the prisoner said: ‘A very nice speech, but there is not a bit of truth in it.” Judge Cox’s Remarks, HE EXPLAINS HIS LENIENCY TO THE PRISONER AND ORDERS HIM TO THE DOCK, BUT SAYS HE WILL BE PROTECTED. Judge Cox then said that it was hardly neces- sary to say that the conduct of the prisoner had been one of resistance and defiance. The only measures that could have been adopted at the outset was such as would infringe his constitutional right. Until Saturday aU last no other measure had been suggestei Then the question was suggested in the form of a motion that the prisoner be removed from the dock. It had been the opinion of both the court and the counsel that the prisoner should | be allowed some liberty, a3 his own actions in | court would be a criterion of his men- tal condition. It was through the | expressed desire by the district attorney that | he was allowed euch latitude in order to fur- nish opportunities for observations to expert witnesses, who wished to diagnose the case. As it now appears, the opinion of the experts have been largely formed upon the exhibitions in court, which fact was a sufficient justification of the course pursued. At this stage of the trial, the object having been accomplished, these gentlemen having had a falr opportunity to form their judgment and. being now in the 6. | 801 ness, said: ‘‘As this case will be historical, and as we can make no exception or appeal, in be- half of the American government I protest against this decision passing into the record.” The cross-examination of Dr. Callendar was then continued. Dr. Callendar said he did not regard the shape of the head as indicating anything in regard to insanity. Mr. Mills’ plaster cast of Guiteau’s head was handed to the witness, who was asked If he de- tected any irregularity in the conformation of the skull. QUITEAU AS HUMPTY DUMPTY. The witness held the head up where it could be seen by every one. “That looks like Humpty Dumpty,” remarked | the prisoner, and in the laugh that followed he sung out: “I am much obliged Corkhill for | giving me this fine seat.” The witness said the cast did not show so much lack of symmetry as he really thought ex- isted in the prisoner's head; he did not think there was anything about the cast to indicate any lack of mental ability. The witness upon a redirect examination said he thought the prisoner was consciously and purposely exaggerating his conceit and in- solence, but was not feigning insanity. “In other words when I am assaulted,’ ” said the prisoner, “I fight back. You see Mr. Por- ter expects to get $5.000 for Lag ead me. He sees the money slipping away from him be- cause the American people don’t want me hung, and he is mad about it.” The court then at 3 o'clock adjourned till to- morrow morning.
