policemen in addition to two officers on the van He was at once taken to his room breakfasted and read the morning pers He seemed to have recovered from his scare He attributed his cape on Saturday to the interposition of Deity and desired his hearers to understand he was not afraid to cie if Deity desired it but he did not want to be shot down like a dog before he had time to vindicate his conduct in a of justice Upon into court Guiteau at once devoted himself to his papers and contrary to general expectation made no stration whatever or allusions to the latest attempt upon his life Immediately upon the opening of the court Robinson arose and ad- dressed the court for the purpose of calling attention to an article in day's Post in which Seoville was made to say he should request the withdrawal of Robinson from the case as he Seoville had become that he Robinson could be of no assistance but rather an rassment in the conduct of the de- fense Robinson criticized in severe terms the discourtesy he had received from Seoville He was here inter- by Guiteau who broke in: Your honor I want Robinson to stay in Continuing Robinson requested the to grant his discharge from the case and positively stated that he could not with proper self-respect re- main in association with Seoville Guiteau who had been following Robinson all through the latter tion of his speech broke in with con- That's an able speech and I agree with of it If he had only made it last Monday there never would have been any dis- between us Seoville here tried to quiet Guiteau when he retorted upon him with Keep quiet yourself I'm talking now I sympathize with him in this matter Seoville made a brief statement de- the disagreement after which Judge Cos relieved Robinson from further connection with the de- fense Seoville began to address the court with We do not expect to be com- to conduct the case entirely without assistance Here Guiteau I under- stood Judge McGruder was anxious to assist in this trial also Mr send I should like to have them pear here as well as Swett and Trude of Chicago Then adding after a short One word on the question of malpractice My idea is simply that by the physician's own statement on the day of July president was not fatally shot We don't want to press the subject we only desire to have it go on the record so that the court in bane may take record of it After a brief pause Guiteau added That is all there is to the tice business Short and to the point I want it understood I appear as my own counsel I am an agent of the Deity and I expect him to take care of me I think He has aged it pretty well so far The district attorney then called Drs Woodward and Lamb who to the character of the wound that it was a mortal one They also identified the ball which was ed to the jury as the one they had taken from the body of President The prosecution then rested their case and Guiteau was allowed mission to be heard in opening his defense Guiteau retaining his seat began Your honor I was not aware I was expected to speak this morning here leaned over and to him when Guiteau sharply and with impudence I don't to stand up I'm not afraid to however but I have only a moment to speak and will keep my seat I do not care to say more than vas published last Monday in my address I presume the jury all saw it I have not a speech to make I appear as my own counsel My idea is to make tions as we go along just as I have done for the past four or rive days I don't mean any discourtesy to any one I only want to get at the facts If any one says I owe them twenty dollars and I do not I will deny it on the spot My idea is to take things when they are hot and not let them get cold and suffer from tations Of course I shall go on the stand at the proper time and be ex- My idea however is to meet a misstatement when it is hot instead of waiting to let the matter et digested and misunderstood I hink the true way is to interject ray statements as the case proceeds I have no set speech to make but am much obliged to your honor and to my counsel for the courtesy of this manner seems to hare undergone a marked change since the early days of the trial and during the delivery of his short speech this was particularly noticeable At its con- he settled back in his chair with air of exhaustion and rested his head on his hand wearily a expression appeared upon his features Seoville then addressed the jury at considerable length he said has been introduced in the evidence thus far to his mind should have no bearing upon the case All men shared the sama opinion relative to the suffering of the president It was not pleasant to contemplate these things and when they were presented to the jury they must exercise influence The only question however for the jury to consider was whether the prisoner killed the president and whether at the time he was in such condition mentally as to render him responsible for the action The speaker with no attempt at effects presenting in a plain matter-of-fact manner the points which he proposed to make ana upon which the defense would rely out concluding his opening address Seoville requested the court to allow him further time and to permit him to finish to-morrow This was granted and court ad- While Guiteau and the guards were waiting the arrival of the prison van the former was served with a hot luuch and furnished a pen and ink He then supplied many applicants with his autograph His appetite and vanity is undiminished When the van appeared the crowd pressed to the middle of the roadway There was also a line of spectators on the opposite side of the street This crowd included many ladies who watched the proceedings through opera glasses The prisoner was brought out ugh the basement and almost completely hidden by the guards As the door closed upon him the crowd hooted and yelled The van was driven away rapidly under a guard of mounted police The ney to the jail was without incident A NEW CABINET WANTED The committee appointed by the grange to confer with Dr Loring commissioner of agriculture in relation to elevating his department to a higher rank and convey a protest of the national grange against ing in that department other tries beyond the legitimate one which it that duty to-day Commissioner ing in reply said he had advocated the enlargement of his department so as to include these interests which were intimately and to a great extent inseparably allied to A bureau of manufactures ought to be established where could find such information as would be for their best interest in the production of cotton wool There should also be a mining bureau President a short time before he received his death wound said he thought the land office ought to be connected with the new department and the industries as to railroads he thought something might be done by which the whole country would be benefitted in the way of railway equalization ot fares and transportation He thought it would be a benefit to have tabulated rate of freights and fares showing the working of railroad systems ia different states in connection with the agricultural interests as tion by land and water is closely allied to agriculture The could not take any action ing the making of his a net office This he left to the country and legislation which the al interests may demand THE NEXT BOUSE Since the election in New York it has been claimed that there were 147 straight Republican members of the next house notwithstanding the de- feat of Astor The official list of members as made up by officers of the house and of those who are entitled to draw pay only contains 146 straight Republicans or one short of a majority over all They are from different states as
