Porter x ud to one pub lie statemont of the prisoner, which Guiteau and Scoville claimed contain- ed his tiest declaration of divine in- spiration, and said the document con tained nothing of the kind.

Porter next paid attention to the people charzed by Guiteau and his counsel as responsible for the death of Garfield, reciting the list, which in- 89 . the prisoner's sanity, and reviewed the testimony of Mrs, Scoville, con tonding parts in her statement wero silly ovidences of Guitoau's insanity. “Admitting, for the sake of argu- ment, the insanity of the prisoner,” said Porter, “let lunaties loarn they can commit murder with impunity, and General Sherman ean't collect troops enough to protect us, But he was not insane. 1 don't deny his claim to be the most cold blooded murderer of 6,000 years, ‘whoso shed doth man's blood, by man so shall his blood be shed.” ““That was two thousand years ago, said Guiteau “You hear the gospol of Guitean' went on Porter, “and he expects the | jury to endorse it."

National Associated Pre Beruiy, January 24, A tumultu ous discussion ensued in Reichstag, the occasion being the third reading of the budget on royal reseript Prinoe Bismarck, in oxplaining tho provisions of tho reseript, said it was not intended to creato o now consti- tutional law but simply to prevent ob- seuritios romarding the old, insisting on sovereien rights which, he said, o apart from ministerial proroga- tives and could in no way be inter forod with by law. Dotails of the scene in Reichatag are a8 follows: Horr Haenel, pro- grossist, in his spoech declared that tho resoript prosonted pure absolu- tism and is intended to cover the re- sponsibilities of ministers by the king's will. Prince Bismarck, facing tho loft in roplying to tho aboye, said : “If you boliove that the ministers in- tond to cover thomsolves ngainst par linmentary spoeches by the king's person you err. You overrate your- solves if you reproach mo with cow- ardice after my lun%aurvicou to my cluded a presigent, an ex-president and Mrs. Garfield, Mr. Blaine and 8enator Conkling, John H.

Porter also ridiculed the at. tempt to drag in the Jhizago conven- tion as the assassin, and ssid: *‘Tho raan whose blistered tongue made the charge murdered Garfield as he would a calf.” Porter eulogized the records of Grant and Conkling and Arthur as stainless. Porter continued: ‘‘Arthur was not made president by Guiteau's act, but by the votes of the people, and he would have been president if Garfield had trod on an orange peel and fell and killed himself; but instead, he trod on a rattlesnake and the snake marked his destruction.” Por- ter next made the stato- mont that Garfield had eaid after being shot his murderer was irresn msible because insane, and pro- ceoded to show he did say to Mrs. Edson ho could never pardon a man for such a crime. He told the jury that they had been told they were enperors and kings, ete., and could ride a rale of the court, but it wits not time At 12 re hour.

Porter went on: “He was a good man, & theologian, but he did not want to go to Paradise. He spent six weeks planning the murder of the president and lying plans for his own sufoty. He neglected no precaution for his own safely, unless it was the defense of insanity, and that did not tarry loug. Scoville saw him two days after the shooting, and since then the press has been filled with this idea of insanity, and that without its being shown when insanity first be gan. mental condition was she him." “But I didn’t love her,” said Guit can who loved woman mtinued Porter, “Ihat was sham,” said Guitean, “The woman who slept with him,’ went on Porter, “Sometimes she did and sometimes she did rot,” said Guiteau “The woman who gave money which he squandered on street prostitutes,” [ who married him,’ “That's a lie,” concluded Guiteau, “Such peoplo.” said Porter, “know best about his brain, She said he wad nover insane, and so said his own brother, while his counsel did not dare to ask his sister what she thought,” He then argued the testi- mony of the experts was in favor of She who could best tell of his | ¢ country and it should bring a blush of shame to your face to make such as- sertion.” Great uproar followed the prince's speech. Herr Haenol was protesting that that was mere fancy of the) ol r. Prince Bismarck retorted, *‘ K Here Haenel denied even hinting at such expression as that made by the prince, and Kreauumd that the prince had invented it. This increased the disturbance, the right crying, ‘“Infa- mous.” The princein great ggitation sprang to the foot of the tribune and accused Haenel of having insulted him, and said he could not redress the injury by simply denying, and thoreupon loft the house, The debato mediatoly languished, and was ad- journed.

Great pleasure was evinced by allas it appeared something definite will have been made public during the commissioners’ stay there, but they were disappointed prepar: tions had been mado by the Peruvians ‘o entertain Trescott and Blaine but they did not appear over- rlm\mvll at the idea of wing mado the lions of the hour. They were received on board by rep resontatives of the Chilean authori- ties, and by a committee of Peruvian gentlemen, one of whom, Senor Der- teano, offered them his house. This offor was rejocted and the commission- ors selectod the Franco-Anglterre ho tol for their residence during their stay in Lima. Nothing offictal seems to have taken place. Tt is said every word uttered by the commissionors was caught up as indications of tho inton- tions of the United States govern- ment, oven the complimentary re- mark of Mr. Blaine at lunch in Mr. Derteano’s house, in which he express- ed the wish that on his return, in about three months, he would seo the flag changed which governed the city. That was rapidly converted into meaning that the United States would at once order the withdrawal of the Chileans from Peruvian terri- tory. The Lackawanna, with the com- missioners on board, sailed for Val- pariso on Christmas day.

A fire ocourred in Callao on the 26th, causing losses amounting to $60,000; no insurance. e Relios of the '80 Campaign. National Associatod Pross.
