GUITEAU

Or. Bliss Takes the Stand Today for the-Prosecution.

A Sensation Produced by the Exhibiof the Vertebrae cf the Dead President.

An Impressive Scene Daring General Swaim's Testimony-

WASIIIKOTON, NOV. 10.—The crowd about the Court House this morning was iar greater than upon any former day. It •was with the greutest difficulty that those whose presence were needed in the court could gain admission. To avoid the otherwise inevitable scramble, it has been found necessary to issue tickets of admission and only ticket holders are permitled to enter. At 9:40 the doors were opened and in a few minutes every seat was occupied, the larger proportion of spectators being ladies.

Guiteau arrived at 9 o'clock and without any particular demonstration on the part of the crowd was taken at once to the prisoners' room, where he ate a hearty breakfast and expressed himself well satisfied with the progress of his case.

Scoville, being questioned in relation to Guiteau's alleged new counsel, Judge Magruder, of Maryland, stated that he was"not aware of any tender of services from udce Magruder. lie had received several oilers from lawyers, sjrangers to him,but feared he might make a greater mistake by taking at this late stage of the trial counsel unknown to him than by proceeding alone. He does not expec1 other assistance than Robinson.

Court opened without incident. Geo. C. Maynard, electrician, was put on stand and testified to loaning Guiteau $10 at one time and $15 at another

Guiteau protested against the line of evidence. He didn't think it anybody's business whether he owed $25 or some oneto\\ed him. "Maynard," said he "is agood fellow and 1* owe him $2-5 that's all there is in it."

District. Attorney Corkhill desired to prove by the witness thnt Guiteau borrowed §15, with which he bought the revolver. On cross-examination the witness thought Guiteau looked Beedy and hungry.

The prisoner (sho *ed much feeling and frequently interrupted the witness, asserting that he lived in iirat. class style and wore a $70 nuit of clotlits. He knew plenty of public men and had all the money he wanted. His mental condition and physical were at fault. He had a big load on his brain about' that time.

Witness didn't notico anything about the prisoner's manner except a sort of skulking gait

Jas. N. Burart, clerk to Maynard, also testitied to the loan of $15 and thought Guiteau's walk and the way he held his head a little peculiar.

John O'Meara testified to selling the pistol to Guiteau. He couldn't identify it, as there were thousands just Ijko it.

The charges were then drawn from the revolver at th suggestion of counsel and much to the relief ot the audience.

Peoding the examination of the pistol, Guiteau desired to announce to the court that lie had invited John B. Townsend, Leonard Swett and A. S. True, of Chicago, to assist him. There was plenty of brains on the other side and he desired as much on his in the interest of justice. Another matter, he continued, I desire to call to the attention of the court is that there area number of disreputable characters in court and some threats of violence beiny mada during the week past. I have no fears for my personal safety. The Chief of Police lias kindly furnished a body guard, and I wish to notify all the evil disposed persons that if they attempt to harm ule my body guard will shoot them down That's all there is hbout it. Then noddiug to the reporters table he added, 'Reporters. put that down." V'"'

Col. A S Rockwell, the next witness, began to detail the occurrences at the depot, vvheu Scoville interposed acknowledging tne killing. Guiteau quick3y fcliouted, "No Your Honor, we acknowledge the shooting but not the killing." Col. Rockwell briefly stated the facts within his knowledge and wiihsoat cross-exiiminatioa was followed by

General D. G. Swaim. The witness was *t Elberaa whon the shooting occurred. ffi 'General Swaim described brielly his association with the President during his illness. An impressive scene occurred A during his testimony. "What were the

President's last words?" asked Mr. Corkhill. "His last words," replied the witness vwith.cmorion, were "Oh Swaim."

DH. D. W. BLISS

•was then called. Witness gave a narrative covering lrom the time he was called to the President's side, 15 or 20 minutes after he was shot, until liis death. The immediate «use of death was hemorrhage. Witness then explained minutely the character of the wound, using upper *, portion of a wired skeleton for the purpose of illustration, and detailed at great .*length the progress and the symptoms ol the case, pending the arrival of the fractured vertebrre. which the District

Attorney announced had been sent for. fj^The witness was subjected to a lenghty cross examination, the supposed object being to lay the foundation for the theory "of malpractice which Guiteau insists must be made the foundation stone for his defense. Quite

THE SENSATION OP THE TRIAL I

was produced when the District Attorney suddenly drew from a pasteboard box upon his table a section of human back,',bone and holding it up inquired, "Do you recognize this, Doctor The auditnce hung breathess upon the answer, t»s .. he witness in measured tones replied, "I lo. It is a portion of the vertebrae of the

Ate President James A. Garfield." The rertcbrae was then handed to the jury *nd the character and extent'of the injury to them explained. Dr. Bliss was followed with the closest attention on the part of the entire audience with the sole

-!'. ,T

exception of Gniteau, who devoted himself to his papers, only occasionally glancing up with the air of a man being bored with a recital in which he could have no possible interest. After the vertebrae had been returned to the District Attorney's table Scoville reached over and requested the opportunity of examining them. It was handed him, and Guiteau, who %its immediately on his right, examined them closely as Scoville turned them oyer and from side to side. He made no move to touch them, however, and gave net the slightest indication of any feeling other than of casual curiosity. 1

The examiflfltioK of the witness was still progressing when the hour of recess arrived.

SPECULATIONS.

Oath's Special. •?.»

I am rather of the opinion that he will be found guilty. A jury in this district disagreed upon John Sorratt's guilt, but sympathy for his metheT's fate untied the knot that hovered over his head, and he is still alive and free, though insignificant. The material of Washington city from which juries are drawn has much altered for the better since his day. Schools, northern enlightenment and example, growing toleration and the deepining respect for the union and the government, together with the material and sanitary improvement of the city, have trained a better race here. A'look at the jury will confirm this. They are- plain but thoughtful-faced and self-respecting men, generally of mature age, and considerate of the life of such a well-meaning man as Garfield, who is well understood through his long residence here, his interest in whatever improved the minds or morals of his neighbors, his quiet walk and attendance upon church, and the suppression of all personal reason or ignoble passion. A good man's name and general repute stake powerfully in the court, though he is dead, in favor of making hereafter innocuous such insects as his slayer, who represents in no little degree the northern office-seeking bull-dozer, the audacious pest of the Government and of parties.

Not a particle of iceling except

snappishness is ever seen in Guiteau's face. He has a redish skin, sharp, glistening nose, a long mouth, ieanish chops, very thick hair of dullish brown, thick, short whiskers somewhat darker. There is something monkeyish about his face. I have seen very serious monkeys in their cages with his looks, and yet never so intense and liope-berett as his.

GAMBLING iN ST. LOUIS.

Commotion In Police and Newspaper V. Circles,, "ij,

St. Louis Special.

The local excitement which has prevailed here for a week past, and which originated in charges made tiirought the newspapers by ex-Governor Charles P. Johnson, a leading criminal lawyer of the city, against the Board of Police Commissioners, of inefficiency and misfeasance in office, in not enforcing the law against gambling and which the Board made a pretense of investigating, cul minated this afternoon in the Board adopting a resolution suspending furthBr investigation, and referring the whole matter to the grand jury. Whether the graud jury takes the matter up or not, it is likely to be pretty well ventilated, for six suits have grown out of it, and if they are brought to "trial the true inwardness of the case and the bottom facts as to why gambling houses are permitted to run under the existing law, will, no doubt, be brought out,. Three of these suits arc brought iby ex-Governor Johnson, one against Morgan Boland, ex-Police Commissioner. for making false affidavit: one against J. D. Black for making voluti tary talse oath, and one against' the Board of Police Commissioners and Chiet of Police Kennett for giving circulation to the affidavits of Solatia and Biack, which wore defamatory of Johnson's character, and for which he asks civil damages in the sum of fifty thousand dollars. The other suits are one by Prank J. Bowman, Attorney for Chief ot Police Kennett, against the Post-

Dispatch for criminal libel, one by Chief of Police Kennett against the same paper for criminal libel, and one by John II. Maxon, one of the Police Commissioners, against the Globe-Democrat for«libel and damages in the sum of $10,000.

A good deal of interest has been excited in this affair, aud a very considerable number of raputable citizens hope that all the facts in the case will be brought out.

The Board of Police Commissioners is composed of some of the bsst men in the city, btyt, notwithstanding this, and the fact that the keeping of a gambling house in this city is a felony murder the present law, gambling is apparently carried on with impunity.

THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZETTE.

COMPULSORY EDUCATION.

TheIl§§g£2MLfor and Against it Ar-

By a Gentleman who Says he Would Prefer to Have a Policeman Drag Hir Children to School Than sheriff Dra? Them

(Communicated to the GAZETTE.) The opinions of American educatom and legislators are greatly divided on the subject of compulsory education. In many of the states a law exists which provides that all parents or guardians of chil Aren between the ages of eight and fourteen years, residing within two miles of a public school, shall send such child to school at least twelve week* each year. But these laws are opposed for the following common reasons: (1) 8uchlaws create new crime. (2) It inter fetes with the liberty of parents. (3) It arrogates new power ky the government. (4) It is un-American and unadapted to eur free institutions.

That education is a force restraining vice and crime, appears to he established by two important facts: 1st. Wherever education is diffused among the people, the ratio of the number of criminals in the whole population diminishes and (2)—In all countries the criminal class is mainly fed by the ignorant class Ignorancc unfits a man, to a considerable extent, for earning his daily bread, and in moyt cases, dooms him to abject poverty The want ef ictelluctual culture is certainly and universally coupled with a lack ot feeling ot self-respect and moral respons'bility, thus leaving tue poor victim an easy prey to the many temptations which the society otfers. It certainly follows that every advance made toward the removal of illiteracy must have a tendency to reduce the number of crimes. Intellectual cul ture elevates the moral scn*e. The elevation of the moral sense prevents crime The period of the education of the greater majority cf the masses of our people is between the ages of and 16. It io during this period of the child's life that the lorm of character which determines the success of the individual during life is moulded into definite shape. If then, on the ground than "an ounce of preventive is better than a pound of cure," the children of these ages are kept in the public schools, the private school, or in respectable shops or storerooms, where the influences tend toward habits of industry, honesty and integrity, will not the effects be wholesome and gratifying— both to parents and tli« community?

Certainly so to the community. The means to this end are simple and practical—not in a general State compulsory law requiring all children between those ages to attend school a given proportion of the school year, but in three things, viz: 1. Let tlje legislative authority pass an ordinancq that all persons between 8 and 16 years of age who are found idle daring the school hours be .ule to give a satisfactory reckoning of their idleness. 2. Let the civil magistrates vigorously enforce this ordinance. 3. Give the teachers of the public schools free and unfettered liberty to juUly and reasonably compel the obstreperous— now loafei— to comply with proper ruhs of decorum within the school room. "What, says one, "Would you have a policeman drag your children to school?" I answer emphatically,yes, if if will prevent the sheriff from dragging him to jail afew years hence.

DISCOVERER

It is not the purpose of the writer to answer these objections nor to advocate a compulsory law in this Btaie such as exists in New York, California, and several other states. We admit the adage: "Where there is no law there is no transgression," that our laws were better simplified and reduced and then enforced rather than increased and neglected. But do not all quarantine and hyeienic regulations and laws for the abatement of nuisances in time of pestilence create new crime? Do they not interfere with the liberty of parents? Do they not arrogate new power by the government? Now ignorance is as noxious as the ino»t offensive nuisances, ana more destructive than bodily contagion.
