THE ASSASSIN. Something About Guiteau and and the Bulldog Pistol. District Attorney Corkhill's Estimate of His Mental Calibre, An Hgotist Without any In- clination for Morals or Affairs. His Mind Affected by the Abuse Heaped Upon Garfleld. Cincinati Enquirer, New York, September 27.—T re- turned to New York this morning, having had the benefit of three re- flective days at the national capital following ‘the removal of President Garfield’s remains. The last of the fussy politicians had gone to Cleve- land, and there was a thoughtful tem- per in the air of Washington. One of the first things [ did was to tele- phone to the district attorney, Cork- hill, an old acquaintance, and appoint a talk with him. He is the only per- son in the country, except possibly the jailer, who has had any prolonged conversation with the assassin Gui- teau, and reports of conversation with that malefactor are either invented or snatched and built up on a glimpse of his person. I went to the district attorney's office, and spent about two hours there alone with him, inspecting the implements of the crime and obtain- ing Mr. Corkhill’s theory concernjng it. Corkhill is, I think, a native of the Isle-of-Man, between the Irish, Scotch and English coasts. The peo- ple are called nxmen. I think he came to this country when a child, though it is possible he may have been born after his Manx parents came here. He wasa lawyer in Towa, and married the eldest daughter of Judge Miller, of the supreme court in JTowa. He has since married the step-daughter of the late Hiram Wal- bridge, of New York, who was a very close friend of Horace Greeley. Mr. Corkhill came to Washington City about twelve years ago and published the Daily Chronicle. He was ap- pointed United States district attor- ney by President Hayes, at the re- quest of Judge Miller. He is about 45 years old, with a round head and very broad face, andsufficient address, ncisive, and with pertinacity enough to make a good prosecutor. It is barely possible, however, that he lacks the real dislike and hate of the assassin necessary to express to a jury the reality of his crime. After Mr. Corkhill took his office, and long before the assassination of Mr. Garfield, he had engaged to write a legal analysis of the crime of Booth, the killer of Mr. Lincoln. He had prepared scrap-books of newspapers and printed matter and original testi- mony for this purpose, when he sud- denly found himself face to face with a presidential assassin himself, Mr. Corkhill began hy opening a large safe and producing a pistol with a white bone handle, a very thick, squarish assemblage of metal at the revolving part and a short barrel, with a sight at the end of it. The whole thing was about five and a half inches long by nearly four inches from the end of the handle to the top of the trigger, but wasrather a clumsy pistol, made of common materials by some English or American manufac- turer with some knowledge of its chief. market. To a boor or a town rowd; this pistol would seem a very hand- some thing, - An expert in revelvers would notice the coarse fimsh upon it and the largeness of the parts. Push- ed in beneath the pistol was a sort of hoop of metal inclosing the trigger. On top of the barrel was a siring of letters, beneath which issued the ter- rible ball, saying, ‘‘English bull-dog.” Nowhere around the pistol could any mark be found indicating where it was made. This omission I took to mean that it was one of those cheap and not very sure or safe revolvers intended to be sold by the gun stores, so that they could make a food, big profit by retailing it for 810. I doubt if the pistol alone cost the gun-shop man over $5, if so much, “Look out!” said the district attor- ney; ‘“‘all the cartridges are in there loaded, except the two Guiteau fired at the president.’’ From a piece of paper Mr, Corkhill unrolled one of the leaden slugs, the second one Guiteau fired, and put it in my hand—a broken piece of lead about as long as a fingernail, consid- erably thicker than a lead-pencil. - “‘There you have the weapon,” said he. ‘‘As agreat many steries. have been told about shis assassination which have no basis in fact, and are either mistakes or inventions, 1 will show you how Garfield was murdered with this weapon.” He then sent for a series of maps of the depot building, one of which was on the largest scale and had traced npon it all the moye- ments of the respective ies, 80 confirmed by Guiteau himself, *‘This ietol,” said Mr, Corkhill, “‘was {;ought for the purpose of this murder at d o’clock on the morning that he was to kill Garfield. He went to the foot of Seventeenth street, near the old house where it was said Booth's conspirators were to abduct Mr. Lin- coln, and he fired at a mark, Havin, satisfied himself that the pistol turnes vroperly in its shell and would fire traight, he waited until it was time or the president to go to the depot, hired a carriage. went to the depot, and took a seat here in the.ladies’ room (pointing to the spot) 'When the president came in Guiteau got behind him so close that when he reached out his arm, as I do with this pistol, it was not more than three or four feet from- the president’s body. It was that first shot which entered the president’s body, staggered, and fora moment bent him up before he fell. No other shot entered his body afterward, though Guiteau did fire again, The president not immediately falling, and the assassin being completely intent on finishing the deed fired, and the shot passed, as the president was sinking down, This shot did not en- ter his body at ali, There was a tray- eling glazier in the large room of the depot between the ladies' room and the train, He heard the first shot and it frightened him, While he was wondering there was another shot, and he telt the glass in his pack which he takes out to mend windows here or there cracked, asif struck by a ball. He become so scared that he instantly left the depot. When he took off his pack in the evening to see how much glass was broken he found this lead from the second cartridve, which had probably gone over Gar- field's ahuuk‘or as he was failing and struck that pack of glass. There is no doubt whatever,” said Mr, Cork- hill, “that this piece of lead you are holding was the second shot about which such foolish stories have been told.” “‘Here,” said the district-attorney, “‘are some photographs of him fust as good as they can be taken. 1f you were to go down to the jail and see him you could have no better idea of him than you can get from these pictures. He may look a little dirtier and more significant, for these are not full length pictures.” 1 took a series of these pictures in my hand, and observed at once that the type of the assassin was French. He looked to one like a low French- e those around the barriers of Paris—one who would steal or eat diseased meat, or espy the police in both directions whenever he came out of his house. The eye had in it the confession of a spirit with serious in- tentions, yet no province of work or application; the eye of such a French- man as_might in times of socialism have a following, or create for himself asmall and radical notoriety some- where between the faubourgs and newspapers. His hair was cropped and his beard, which extended areund the chops and jaw, and also assumed the likeness of a mustache, was very thin, as if the natural soil of the man’s skin was poor, and yet his mouth had that arch indicative of obstinacy of urpose. His nose was short and {:rund. His perceptive bumps above his eyebrows were pretty goud, but the line between them, coming down the middle of the forehead, was deep- ly cut, as if mental worry and the loss of memory had wrinklad him there. The eyes were large, unsatis- fied, introspective, as if they turned within himself and found nething there that did not throw them out again with the world, yet thinking of the wreck he was. The forehead was rather low; but broad, and the ears stood out stubby and belligerent. He is such a looking man as you might expect to find some night fumbling in your bureau for valuables, who would first stop to explamn that it was a mis- take about his being there, and would next try to thrust a knife into you if he found you had him in a corner. The face was blasted with all 1ts hopes deferred until the world seemed to hove closed around him and left noth- ing there but the resources of a thief. Not one of these pictures indicates a Frenchman of the same generalstype that put assassination with the regu- lar agencies of politics. ‘‘Is this man crazy, Col. Corkhill?” “‘No; he is neither crazy nor desti- tute of intelligence and requirements. He is no more crazy than any of the people we have seen who have told us that on a certain day or night God had pardoned all their sins; that they felt them slide off. I remember an old kinsman of mine, who wus a clergy- man of the Methodist church, who related to me how, at asingle moment of time, all his sins had escaped from his back and made him a new creature, I couldn’t say he was a crazy man, nor could I say that he lied. That is all the assumption Guiteau makes ot craziness — that he received by inspi- ration the idea that he must kill Gar- field in order to unite the broken col- umns of the republican party. He says it took hold of him as nothing over did before, and he felt that he was going to do a great deed which no one else 1n the country would dare undertake.” g “Well, colonel, there mustbe some- thing peculiar about the man to drive him to assume such a commission, even if it had been a good one.” ‘““There comes 1n,” said the district attorney, ‘‘the man's vanity, He is undoubtedly a man who thinks a great deal of himself. He does not consider his life a failure by any means. He thinks if it has not been appreciated that it ie the fault of the world which had not brightness enough to appreci- ate him, He thinks his speeches, his looks, his arguments at the bar, his general views as to politics and party management are the views of a great man.” Here Col. Corkhill took up one of Guiteau’s books in a red cover, enti- tled, “Truth,” a title which seems to strike every scoundrel in the country as the proper designation for his con- coctions, The district attorney had marked this book, and Guiteau him- self had rewntten parts of it in ink, italicized places and made corrections, and written on the fly-leaf that this was a correct copy. Corrections must appear in future editions or something to that effect. The district attorney said: “‘Now this book has nothing in it indicative of an eccentric mind; noth- ing the least suggestive of an insane man. He proceeded to read passages whicn struck me as almost a repro- duction of ordinary prayer-meeting and class-meeting talk, ~ Guiteau went on to say there was nothing worth consideration in this world but Chris- tian faith. He rcproved Henry Ward Beecher for having mixed himself up in scandal, thereby reducing the cause of Christ. He referred to Dr. Tal- mage a8 not having dignity enough when he argued for his Divine Master. He adduced one other clergyman, the Rev. Mr. Murray, of Boston, for hav- ing run away without paying his bills after having been considerable of a showman, and said that it wasa sad récord in the Christian diary.” ‘Peo- ple of the world,’ says Guiteau, ‘place a good deal of stress on all things, and Christianity is run down by means of them,” ‘‘He speaks of corrupt books, and says that Tom Paine's ‘Age of Rea- son’ ought never to have seen the light of circulation; that it was a crime, because 1tdemoralized the con- science of young people, There is not a single idea in the book above the ordinary stupid, yet well-meaning, exhorter or class-leader, and, as far as I could sce, nota single point of originahty., His having published any books will, in some quarters, create an interest in him, “‘Now," said Col. Corkhill, “Gui- teau is a man of slight ability, as it seems from this publication, yet he appears to value everything he does at tho highest, T should call him an egotist, with an_inclination for morals and afiairs. Perhaps, when he seized the idea of killing the president, it stood up in his mind as an inspiration, and his intense temperament immedi- ately fastened upon it and carried it into effect,” “What do think, colonel, about his being revengeful !’ S ‘5“ says he never was insulted in his life by either Mr. Blaine or Mr. Garfield; that he never indulged in an instant’s feeling of spite against them. He wanted to be consul to Paris, and thought his claims were considerable —enough to get him the position; but while waiting for this place the other idea seems to have crossed his mind, that he could harmonize the repub- lican party by putting Garfield out of the way and letting Arthur succeed him, From this moment he threw away his claims to office, and was wholly absorbed by the other idea. “It is not true, either,” continued Mr, Corkhill, “that he dogged the president around the White House steps, He did keep a watch over the White House from the opposite square, and particularly watched the newspapers to find out the movements ot the president. After this idea took possession of him it would hardly have been possible to save Garfield. 1t seems to me the man had put the whole remnant of his will into the de- sign, and the only chance Garfield had was in Guiteau being arrested and dis- armed before he could carry out his purpose. He kept the whole thing to himself, however, not trusting any- body in the world with his intention, and therefore when the act was done it looked to many like a conspiracy, and took everybody by surprise.” ‘‘Well, Col. Corkhill, can you un- derstand that a scheme of assassination like this was yet relevant to the facts of the day?” ‘“‘As to tnat,” replied the Colonel. “‘Guiteau had made a collection of newspaper publications, severe crit1- cisms on Garfield, nearly all taken from the republican press. You must remember that before Garfield was shot there was agood deal of hard comment upon him. Perhaps the majority of republican newspapers were invidious and censorious. A few of them were full of gall. Corres- pondents were sent to Washington for the purpose of writing Garfield down. He was accused of insincerity, cun- ning, malice, and many other things. “‘The senate was arrested for a long eriod. Not acting on the business efore it, this man Guiteau, impecun- ious, uneasy, and rushing up toward fame, thought he perceived justifica- tion enough to go and buy that pistol with his last cent and shoot Garfield. That is what I make out of the con- tents of his mind,” said Corkhill. ““That is the line of justification he takes—that his motives were good; that God inspired them, and that the result shows that God was on his side, and thut he was not mistaken; that he had no malice—indeed, it was only a sacrifice to a mission--a great duty.” ‘““How do you accouut for his being such a beat withall that fine philoso- phy?” *‘Well,” said the Colonel, ‘‘he is sensitive about that. When I went to see him right after the crime I said to him: ‘Mr. Guiteau, admitted what "you say as to your sense of duty, you will also concede that T have my duty to perform. I will give you a chance THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: M( hanging him. It was generally thought that Emery Storrs yearned to defend Guiteau. The Right Sort of General.

You have no right to inquire whether I paid this bill or that bill, because that don’t belong to this act. I shot the president. If he dies I can be tried for murder. If he does not die I can be sent to prison for a few years. That is all you can do.” “I found that he had inquired into the laws of the district affecting this crime. He also expressed surprise that I would do such a brutal thing as to annoy his relatiyes, friends and ac- quaintances. Ihave seen no other signs of insanity about him,” said Mr, Corkhill, “‘than this exalted idea of his own value, and of the utility and propriety of all his acts. He would go to the gallows with his head proud- ly in the air if the execution was pub- lic enough.” Mr. E. B. Wight, of Chicago, cor- respondent at Washington of The Tribune, said to me to-day: ‘I know Guiteau very well. He infested the Tribune office until he was called a dead-beat 1n its columns, When he sued the paper for libel they proposed to plead and prove the truth of the ges, and he never pressed the suit, I think malice was a large part of his animus against Gartield. He had heen repulsed both at the white house and state department. His great egotism tended to make him devilishly sensitive. He invari- ably brought suit against news- papers which exposed him as & boarding house dead beat, and then his sublime assurance would some- times prompt him to propose the com- promise of the suit for an interest in the paper. against the administration, and look- ing about for some means of revenge thought he would plead a religious duty, He hasa wiE! look out of his dyes, and some people - would think him crazy., His talk, however, is plausible, and as a borrower and boarding house beat he is remarkable, He will ask-for any amount as a loan, never standing on a small amount when he can get a large sum, It is by no means certain that he will be tried, Suicide he would probably lack the courage to try, but I have anticipated that some of the guards might kill him, I think that first encounter with the guard looked like aruse to dispatch him, The second man who shot at him, Mason, is un- doubtedly insane. Guiteau’s pros- pects to be hanged are of the very best.” I was told by another observer in Washington that the only point in Guiteau's favor would be the difficulty of impaneling a jury which had not formed an opinion in his case. Ne- groes, southerners, naturalized citi- zns, and republicans all went for 1 think he felt envenomed | Car No Changing Cars OMAHA & GHICAGD, Where direct connections are made with Through SLEEPING CAR LINES for NEW YGRE, BOSTON, PHILADELPHIA, BALTIKORY, WASHINGTON' AND ALL EASTERN ITIES., The Short Line via.
