He was taken from the jail to court in the, Bluck Maria without any dis- turbAnce. After the indictment had i ‘been read, Guiteau sked to be allowed to make a statoment, but Judge Cox said it'would be' out of place. Gni- teau’s counsel then entered 'a plea of not guilty,’ District Attorney Cork- hill asked that the trial be set down fornext Monday. Mr. Scoville, counsel for defense, said a fair trial could not be had if it occurred next week. He should need at least thirty days to get necessary witnesses for the defense. He elaimed the right to get the same number of witnesses for the defense that the govornment had, (44), and that the state should pay for them. He wantod a number of Wwitnesses in the first place to prove Guitcau's ineanity. He expected to 7 prove by experts and long life - ¥ acquaintances that the defendant was of an insane lineage and was irresponsible at the time of the act al- leged. He also expected to prove by Drs. Hammond, Sims and others that liand-cufis,and the prisoner taken from the comt room. There had boen no attempt to do vinlence, and the foars of the puor wretch were grounds léas, Mr. Scoville intimated that | stiil hoped to have the assistancs Gen. B. F, Butler, from whom he had not heard from yet. Failing in that, the only help promised was from R. T. Merrick, who will argue the ques- tion of jurisdiction, Marshal Henry says Guiteau was conveyed safely back to jail. He grew much calmer as ho saw that no personal violence was intended by any one. On the way to the jail he said ho thought he deserved & fair teial, and that 1t would not be possible for him to get ready before January at the sovnest. Tuis looked upon as a- great credit to the law-loving people of the Dis: trict of Columbia that iteau was brought from jail, arraigned and re turned to confinement without an as- sanlt being made on bim. | Tn fi account of the hour selected beis samo as that set for tho parado in honor of the French visitois very few people knew of the arrangsment and the court room was not more crowded than usual. The only ap- proach to a sensation was made by a middles aged white wman. During the proceedings he approached several men and asked for a pistol. Among those asked was a detective who marched him off to police headquar- ters, Ile was evidently drunk SENATE PROCEEDINGS. WasmiNaToN, October 14, —The chair laud bofore the senate a com- munication from the department of justice in answer to the resolution of ay Oth, last, inclosing the list of of- ficers borue on the rolls of the depart- ment not secured to be confirmed by the senate. 5 Messrs, Logan and Pendleton. ap- pointed & committee to notify the president of the election of Davis as midcnt pro tem, reported that they performed that duty. Mr. La- mur called up his resolution inquiring what had been done to protect the rights of American citizeus in vegard to the Panama canal. Adopted. investigate the Rebello . extradition caso, Mr. Sherman offered and asked prusent consideration of a resolntion dirccting the secretary of the treasury to transmit to the senate a copy of the report of the investigation into the affuir of the ireasury department and had read a telegram from a Washing- ton correspondent who intimated that sundry sums had been found to have been used to further Secretary Sher- maw's candidacy for the presidency. and that the report had been suppress- ed at the request of Mr. Sherman. The senator said the writer was very much mistaken in supposing that ho had requested or desired the suppres- sion. He wanted to have published the wound alleged to have been in- flicted was not necessarily fatal, but was made 8o by malpractice. He also desired time to get counsel tv us siat him. Colonel Corkhill argued that the court had no right to promise to pay the expenses of any experts or other witnesses than to prove the alleged insanity. He said the gov- ernment was willing to afford all. just rights for the defense, but had no right to order summoned wit- nesses beyond a radius of one hun- dred miles. The district attorney said he desived the court to definitely de- termine the day of the trial and make it as soon a8 possible. He also asked that the question of jurisdiction be argued hefore the day of tri Then followed a long discussion of what was called by the defenso u logal right of a penniless defense to have witnesses summoned. Justice Cox said he fully appreciated the cir- cumstances of tho defense, and he thought that the time most convenient for all parties would be on Monday, the 7th of November, and that day was fixed, It was decided that the question ot jurisdiction should be argued October 30th. George Scoville, attorney for Gui- teau, his brother- w, then asked for time to obtain proof of ineanity, He presented affidavits, in which he gave the line of the defense which he #aid would./be. mainly two, insanity and medigal malpractice, The, latter was unexpected and made somewhat of a sensation. He desired thirty days delay and an opportunity to call the same number of witnesses as the government ~ On the question of in- eanity he proposed to call among others the following witnesses: Freach Bromley and Fraucis® Scoville should testify that Father Guiteau, tho father of the prisoner, was a zaonomaniac on_the subject of religion some yoars; Eyerett ¥ox, D ver, Mass., who saw the shooting and heard Guiteau use words which show- ed unmistable insani On the sub- jeet of malpractico he proposed to summon Drs, Hammond and Sims, of New York, and Drs. Andrew and Gunn, of Chicago, Mr. Scoville, on behalf of Guiteau, pleaded with the urt for more time and for money r expenses under the federal statute to obtain testimony, His line of de- feuse, however, is to be somewhat dif- ferent from what has been expected aud from what in fact he has himself stated hevetofore.. He had said be- fore, for instance, that he should only plead inssnity, but now he indi- cates that he shall also attempt to defeat on the ground of mulpgactice. Ho also j e test the question of juriadiction, Mr. Beoville'stopped this plea to hold a couference with Guiteau. The latter talked with hum in 4 most rational mapner, District Attorney, Corkhill opposed the delay asked for by Gui- teau's counsel aud said the Jaw was very liboral with persons charged with crime, 50 liberal as too' often to de- feat the ends of justice, Hedomand- ed that & day for immediate trial be fix Judge Cox said that a, prompt i, und fixe !Ke duy r November 7.
