He challenged fiicccssf.il contradiction of his iirv and statements au.J wmfJ for a time K cairr pub ic oninirn with him, so great wa the leverage of hi name. But he was anJ quicker and more thoroughly than he fipcctfl. All the leading paper of the South tpran- -, full armed, to the defense of siuon which they had been the Unst to mx-np- They cheerfully acknowledged the inJcbiedrifss of our section to Mr. Atkinson kr many kindly and cheering words and for a fficudiines that many time took on a pvorr-.- form and came ia time to meet the carping or traduction of our political ene- mies. Keiuforcics the figure and facts then i.un,:.iai!y Mipplied to meet and refute what u admittedly great an authority had C.Tc-- to quwt the fear, of our friends of w England, the Census Bureau furnishes onie dgure- - that cannot b gain.aysd. For in- stance, welearn from them that New England par ll.Go cents pr pound, the South 10.51, a Jiferrnco of 1.14, or ten per cent; in other mot.ii, were the New England mills situ- ated in the South, they would aunually save Jo.l7I.6-- for cotton alone, which would enai le them to pay four cent, additional dividrnd on their capital, a great deal more than many of them now pay. In the matter of waa the showing ia equally favorable b the South. The average wages of hands in New England is $-- 36 64: in the Sc;h, $161 60 a year, an item which would make a difference of 59,561,S25 in the ex-fr- of the New England mills yearly, or six per cent on their capital. It should be .atA bv the bv, that while some of this dif ference in wages ia due to a difference in ekillt it i M wholly so. Cotton-mi- ll labor in the rV uth commands lower wages than in the Northern Plate, because there is more labor in the market here than is absolutely needed, and because the cost of living is cheaper in this section. The two items, cotton and labor, will make a difference of between ten and eleven per cent, on the capital of the New England companies. Besides these ad- vantages, as the New Orleans Democrat pc.cu oiit, tLere U the advantage of climate, which enable the Southern mills to work the . ode year ronnd, instead of closing f. me days during winter on account of the aeritT of the weather; and the water pow er. . I which there U an abundance in nearly a'.l ih Southern Stale. Thus, as the Demo-c- j ys if we "take the 433 cotton-mill- s d. w in th North and transfer them to the S.cth, as many New England cap- - a.- - already proposing to do. Esti- mating the other operating expenses of the mills at one-thir- d the cost of wages and cot- - t a. the New England mills while in New Eoc'and wonld return $16,178,108 of profits; if iter were in the South, paving at the rale that the Southern mills pay for cotton and labor, they would net $37,954,171, or 24 1t cent." All the facts in re gard to the manufacture of cotton are in oar favor. As the census retarnsshow oar mills luake finer goods on the average than those cf New England, earning eleven cents a' yard for the goods turned out by them, whereas the New England mills get only e'eht and a half cents. With this informa- tion before them how can capitalists hesitate to embark in cotton factories? TBI IIMISIPPI RITCR BOtTE. Now that Eads's jetties have given a safe c atict to the sea through the South Pass, the railroad and canal monopolies of the East and Weet have been stimulated to renewed exertions fur the protection of their own inter est. Ihe capitalist who own these monop- olies are not stupid dolts, silly enough to deny the success of the jetties in the face of practical facts. They are shrewd, sagacious business men, and admit that ia the future the Mississippi river w to be a formidable rival Indeed, it may be safely assumed that this route to the sea will Boon "monopolize the business of transporting the grain of the West and South to the port of New Orleans. The facts and figures show most conclusively that it is ripidly gaining' the ascendency over all other rentes to the sea. The New York Ttsxet sees the handwriting upon the wall, and confesses that the railroad and canal monopolies of the East and West will have to succumb to the inevitable. This great journal has a reputation to lose, and it does not propose to hazard it by dispar- aging the success of the outlet which the jellies furnish to the commerce of the coun- try. It says: New York owes Its present position to the cir- cumstances of ibe past. The settlement and of the Western country proceeded fmtn Uiia direction, and lbs means of transportation foUowed me advancing line of population aud in- dustry to brine back their surplus products. The Hn,ion rlverand ibe Erie canal gave New York a water connection with the great lake, and so with the rrain fields of the West, and the grett sTitem of railroads In its development spread from this point westward, Imrinic the days of Slavery La the 6ontb. and those of the war and re- construction, an Industrial barrier ran across the country, turning, the course of transiortation to the eastward from the upjier Mbmisglppi Valley. From mess circumstances the ports ol the North Atlantic coast, and New York in particular, have derived great advantages. Now, however, the ertlcnal barrier la removed, and the region of the MiaxuriDBf Vallev Is so fsr tilled un thut its neonie no longer look to tb eastward for an outlet for meir productions. They are looking for the most economical and Drofitable mm to the spa. The have dlsuovered that the Mississippi river and its uioutanea consume a natural system ol transpor- tation by water which has heretofore been very in- adequately utiliied, and they are Inquiring whether it Is profitable to send so large a propor- tion of .elr bulky commodities to the Atlantic coast by rail, or by tortuous laks. canal and river routes when the drainage of their own valleys wo uuu wrouga uavigaDia cnanneis. These are the candid views of a newspaper whose sympathies are naturally with the monopolies, whose exactions and control of the grain trade of the Wesi have contributed to the prosperity of New York. It was not slavery in the South, the war or reconstruc- tion that prevented the Mississippi river from becoming the great outlet to the sea years ago, bat it was the obstructions at the rxiuth Pass. These having been removed by Captain Eads the greatest civil engineer of the age the Mississippi river will drain the products of the great valley just as naturally as it drains the water which it carries to the sea. The New York Timet is opposed to further appropriations for the great river and its tributaries, but it sees the in- evitable result which will follow the united demand of the Southern and Western peo- ple, and says: The earnestness with which this Inquiry Is presned is calculated to arouse those concerned in through Hues of railway, runnlnc eaxt and west, those whose Interests are connected with canal rominuuli Htiou from the lakes fo the sou, aud the canons ifti.Hte prwipcri.vand growth are bound up with the business of sending the product of tho st to foreign markets, to new exertions for the protection ol their own interests. The Mississippi route threatens a formidable rivalrv which cannot 1k regarded with in.liHun.iice. It f tho purpose f the coming Convention to urge a lilx-rs- l naiionttl policy of Improvement for Hie MisMNsipul river an.f lis tiibuinrfl s, whereby all obstacles to navi- gation may be ruinoved at the expense cf the ,iole couiitry. The Governor of Missouri, in responding to the invitation to appoint delegates to the Con- vention on behalf of his mate, inti- mate that what is- - needed is sn , appropriation which "will givo us six feet of water from St. Paul to Bt. Louis, eight feel from t. Ixiuis to Cairo, and ten feet Iroin Cairo to New Orleans." with correMponillng Improvement of the Missouri and Ohio rivers. This is to he asked for st liie national expense, and, considering the po- litical fiowcr wlcl.i. il bv the Stntes whose ti.tcrel are involved aud tho liberal spirit In which the scheme has already been entertained bv Congress, it hi not sate to awiime that It will not be granted. At nil events, there can doubt that all needed anil practicable Improvement of navigation oil these groat streams o! the West will Ik secured Jn some way before many years have kacd. In these predictions the Timrs will prove a prophet, for the combined influence of the South and AVest will secure all the appro- priations needed to give Unobstructed navi- gation to the Mississippi river and its tribu- taries. So long as tho impediments at South Pass prevented a safo outlet to the sea, ap- propriation! to the Miasissippi river and its tributaries were justly refused by Congress, But the removal of these obstructions will force all .the appropriation needed. The Timet, in the following extract, gives some faint idea of what the traffic of the Missis- sippi river will be in future years: Prior to 1RT8 ths export trade by th Mississippi route amounted to Utile. Iu 1H7 It was nearly tOO.Ou tons, lneludlug over 6 (MO.OOO bushels of grain, and In Ihso over 813.000 tons, including mors than 1ft. 70U,ouO bushels of grain. Ibis year, from thenpeniug of navigation In February to the 1st of August, th shipment of grain from hr. I'Wits to New Orleans Included nearly 8 fioo.000 lx,hela of wheal and ft.ftiu.UiiO bushels of corn. A single steamer with a tow of bargr has taken on one trip I.J.S71 bushels of wheat and 1W.S44 bushels ol corn, with other freight, making In all over 10.0CI0 tons. Ills said that it would require fifty tialns of twenty cars each to bring the aanie bulk of merchsudlM to Sew York by rail, and It maybe calculated how many canal-boa- t of '0 tons each would be required to take it from the lakes to this city. Another statement made In this connection Is that sucb vast cargoes hav been delivered In th elevators at New Orleans within the of departure from Bt. Xxiuis, and that all th mil. roads running eastward from the same point oind not deliver a lik amount lu a roomn g)t. Louis already emplovs In this business eight elevators, costing ti.W.OOO. and having a capaeity of 6,700.-uu- o while additions are being made with a capaeitv of over S.OoO.OOO bushels. Barges al- ready In use aie cs liable of carrving 5,000,000 btif per month. Still more significant la tho calcu- lation that in favorable seasons, with good navi- gation, train can be carried from St. Louis to New f'iri.MaoH for two anl a half cents a bushel while It costs about twenty-tw- cents to bring it from Chi cago topicw ora. I noeana otner ntcis ouuibou careful study in all their liearings from these in- terested in railroads, canals and foreign shippitig In this iart of the country. The tone of the Timet' t article, most of which is quoted above, shows that it waa written in the interest of the monopolies to admonish them of the dangers ahead, and how to devise means to destroy a rival eo formidable. But in the end it will be dis- covered that even bloated monopolies, with all thoir boasted capital, cannot pervert the natural channels of trade. Commerce will always be governed by the most economical routa to the sea. The Valley of the Missis sippi produces the products which make up most of our exports, and the exchange of hich for foreign commodities constitute the bulk of our commerce with other countries, for this the Mishissippi 'river is the natural outlet. If tho Mississippi river traffic has grown so rapidly since the removal of the obstructions at the South 1'ass, with all the disadvantages of snngs, shoals and obstructions at times of low water, what may we expect when all these obstructions are removed? The Mississippi river is rapidly gaining the ascendancy over all other routes to the sea. In a few years the people of Memphis may stand upon the bluff and see the commerce of America gently gliding to the ocean. This will give new ac-- vity to the whole Valley, and new profit in foreign trade, as our people will have the benefit of handling and ahipping, and have a strong hold upon the traffic that comes to the country in return. The ships that transport our commerce from New Or leans to foreign ports will return loaded with the commodities of o'her nations, and New Orleans will become one of the greatest cities on the continent, to the direct benefit of all the people of the South. UAKKIXG CIICIICHMEX. A Bit of m Breeae 1st Western Met ho-?i- t Conference. CuiCAoo, October 7. There was an angry and exciting scene in the Methodist Confer ence at Sycamore, yesterday, when Rev. Dr. Thomas, driven to it bv persistent persecu tion, confronted some of his persecutors and made charges against one of them. Rev. Dr. Parkhurst and the friends of the latter gen. rleman tried to prevent Dr.. Thomas from formally uresentincr the charges, but Bishon Wiley decided, notwithstanding the techni cal objections raised, that I t. 1 nomas could preter charges, which are that Dr. l'arkhurst, in an interview with a Chicago reporter, made statement against Dr. Thomas which were wilfully and maliciously false. The court before which the heresy charges against Dr. Thomas are being heard seems to be rather hostile to the accused, at least they have so far decided against him in nearly every instance. MORE OF THE SAME SORT. A Chicago dispatch received y "says: "The committee appointed to try Dr. Thomas, of this city, on the charge of heresy in the Methodist Rock River Conference, having been challenged by the defense on account ot prejudice, was reorganized this morning, and the trial will new proceed. Dr. Thomas has submitted a written complaint against Rev. Dr. Parkhursi, charging him with falsehood and calumny in iiis speech at this trial in the C hicago District Court. Much feeling appa- rently exists both in Methodist circles and among outsiders in coj'uection with the pend- ing trial of the alleged heretic." - - OUT OX T1IE FlCOTU:it.

The Indians are in the southern end of Chihuahua. It looks as if the Indians will get over the Mexican line, and it will hardly be possible if the Mexican goverumeot objects to oar following these murderers into their territory. I will not cross the line with sny disrespect to their government, but with the intention of pun- ishing Ihe murderers and robbers, and to en- able me to do this I will with any Mexican troops that will assist, but will not turn back nntil I have Indians or until I am ordered to do so by the proper authorities.

A YEAR WITHOUT EAT1XCJ. Remarkable Cao of Lire Prolonged by - Kaenai and Bsrtba. Battx Creek, Mich., October 7. JubI one year ago this week Mrs. Nellie Ingram, of this city, who had been suffering severely from neuralgia in her teeth, concluded to have one of the molars extracted. Accord- ingly hhe repaired to the office of a dentist, Mr. N. Merritt, for that purpose. She was then enjoying the best of health, and weighed 180 pounds. The tooth was a very troublesome one and in the jaw firm and fist, and the pain which she endnred from its extraction was so excruciating aa to ex- cite her nervous system to such a degree that she experienced a shock of nervous prostration, which ended in paralysis of the stomach. The carriage called and she was conveyed to her home in a precarious con- dition. She suffered for several days with cramps in the bowels. .When she attempted to eat food it refused to remain on her stomach and produced the most violeiit retching pains, so that she was obliged to give it up. It soon became evident to her physicians that she could not be kept alive without the means of nourishment, and not a particle of food passed her lips. Injec- tions were therefore given her, and life has thns been prolonged for a year by the process of absorption of food by the walls of the in- testines. Broth of beef tea, milk and such nutritious food are also given her, with occa-eion- al baths of alcohol to keep the pores open. She hss thus lived twelvemonths, not a particle of food passing her lips, life being snpported entirely in this way. When she is hungry, broth, milk or ' beef tea, or an injection, seems to satiafy her ap- petite, the same as though eaten in the usual way. But although this rather thin diet keeps her alive it does not prove very fattening, aa she ha reduced her weight iu this time from 180 to about 70 ouiuls, or at the rate of over two pounds per week loss. Her face has quite a healthy uppearance, and would not strike one as be- longing to a person whose body was so ema- ciated as to he little less thai) akin aud lones. She is only able to obtain about two or thiee hours sleep nightly, and that to- ward morning, when the vitality of the body is very low. With the returning activity of the senses, she begins the retchings which Ihe spasmodic actions of nature continue through the day and until her system is completely exhausted, when rhe again falls into the sleep described. The drain on her nervous system has been so great that she has now lost her reason, and her voice ia so weak that she can (peak only in a low whisper; and she contin- ually grows worse, so that her death is daily expecud. The case has been frequently de scribed, and the accounts have been widely copied, aud created no little interest. Letters are being received by her physicians from all aria ol the united Male. t Iealb of a Prosnlnen Odd-Fello- Detroit, October 7. Rev.

Owing to tho Flurry in Chicago, the Grain Market is a Trifle Unsettled-Ot- her Baidncss Excellent. Baltimore, October 7. Coffee dull and nominal ; prices ranged froia 'J cents for or- dinary to 11 cents for fair new crop, the old crop being cent lower. There was auction sale y of 2000 bags of Rio on basis of 111 cents for new crop, and 11 J cents for old cop fair. Refined sugars very strong, but no advance in the price occurred during the week. . PITTSBURG. PiTTSBCRfi, October 7. There waa a fair vojumeof business doing in all branches of trade the past week, wilh prices generally stiff aud looking upward. The condition of the iron market ia esnecinlly gratifying. The demand is active and the supply good, with prices Tery strong at 1 WJ card rate, which, in view of the healthy feeling existine, was reeffirmed at the late meeting of the West- ern Iron Association. The glass trade is active, with the demand 00 the increase and prices'stiffer, but unchanged. The status of the coal business remains unchanged ; noth- ing new is anticipated until navigation re- sume. LOUISVILLE. Louisville, October 7. Leaf tobacco re- ceipts and offerings are very light, and the market is generally unchanged; buyers and sellers are awaiting the result of the grow- ing crop. Cheese has been active, with a good demand and good sales. Fruit active with a go.,d demand. Seed good demand for timothv and red top, but the demand for other seed hag been lighL The grain mar- ket has been Terr liffht. and high prices have atoDDed business: receipts of wheat liirht. and of other erain fully equal to the demand. In provisions the market has been on the down grade during the past week, owing to the decline in Chicago, and the de- mand has been light and stocks have been very much reduced. Flour receipts light with a fair demand and prices unchanged. CINCINNATI. Cincinnati, October 7. Tho week has been one of more than usual activity in all branches of retail trade, owing to the great number of visitors to the Industrial Exposi- tion. Thisexhibitioncloses the rush of neonle from the country will be less. Corn has declined to C'. and 70c. Oats does not svmnathize with the decline, as it did not share the advance in other grains. Flour rules firm, but the demand ia less active than last week. Whisky has been active aud firm, and the basi9 of the combination distilleries was advanced y to $1 15, with increased sales. .Tobacco leaf has been fairly active, but closes somewhat easier, that no serious fear of damage by frost is felt in this region. Iron has had an active demand and prices are well sustained BOSTON. Boston. October 7. The wholesale dry goods and clothing trades of Boston did more business during August and September just passed than any previous period (of simi- lar length. The leather trade continued to rule dull, the condition of upper leather in-- t' rests being especially unsatisfactory, upper leather hides costing more to import. In suite of the diminished operations of tan ners, vet the couBumntion has been very great, and the shipments of boots and shoes to points outside of New Kniclaod since Jan- uary 1, 1881, have been 70,000 cases greater than the same period ol IS80, and nearly 300,000 cases great r than for the correspond ing portion ot iti.U. NEW ORLEANS. New Orleans, October 7. The week has developed luncn more acuvtiy in cotion, and fluctuations have been wider than for some time. The drop in Liverpool has caused holders to sell more freely, and the better grades are off j to c Ou the other hand, the lower erades have appreciated some owing to the scarcity. Ia futures busi ness has improved steadily, and during the last three days assumed large proportions. The fluctuations have not beta great, and close with a decline of 11 to 15 points on the early months and 2 to 7 points on the later one. The rice movement ia active, embaoB-in- g all grades, at full rates; the turnout of the mills is about sumcient lor wants, ine stock showing little or no accumulation. Sugar has witnessed no movement of im- portance; holders are firm and prices have undergone no variation, but buyers are un willing to operate at present ngures. ST. LOUIS. St. Louis, October 7. The past week has been one of extraordinary activity in all branches of trade. The annual St. Ixniis fair attracted a very great number of people to the city, and thousands of country mer- chants took advantage of the low rates and made this the particular time to come to the city and replenish their stocks. The aggre- gate of goods sold is said to be enormous. Leaf tobacco has dragged during the week, and some sales were made at lower prices. Holders generally are firm, however, and show no disposition to let go. Groceries were very active, with steady and firm prices for all articles, except refined sugars, which ad- vanced i& Dry goods in all kinds of branches had an unusual rush of buyers, but prices show no change. There will probably be an early advance, however, iu both cotton and woolen goods. Wheat, corn and oats sharply advanced on Monday, since when there has been declines, with many and sometimes a good deal of excitement. Corn fell 4c for cash and 3j to 4!Jc for options. Oats declined 2Ac for cash and 2 to 3c for fu- tures. I'rovisions have ruled lower and weaker, with Ftill a declining tendency at the close. NEW YORK. New York, October 7. Business has resumed an even flow and is fairly active, and indications are in favor of a good fall trade. The dry goods trade is fair, and the feeling generally satisfactory, with a better demand for heavy woolens. The upward tendency of prices in the grain trade has been arrested by the Chicago troubles, and there has been a slight drop in the markets. The cotton market is weak, with alight tluctu ations and downward tendency. The busi- ness being done in leaf tobacco in the best that has beeu transacted for many years, and dealers are making money; cigar manu- facturers are all doing well and have orders ahead. The leather trade continues dull. Hides are dull, and there is a large stock here and afloat; prices favor buyers. In boots and ahoea there is more activity. The drug trade has probably recovered from its long inactivity. In hardware the feeling is good; the fall trade so far has been large and healthy, and many lines of goods' are scarce. Braxil coffee is heavy; several par- ties have bought heavily in anticipation of better prices, but cautious operations are not sanguine; tho state ot the market is snch that the arrival of one or two cargoes from Rio would be temporarily dcmoraliz-ini- r. In mild coffee a fair demand has sprung up for the best grades, with a limited snpply and prices nrm. uiwer grauea nave only a moderate demand, and price are nominal. Teas are moderately active, but prices are not active, except in some special grades, and the market on the whole is in- clined to lavor buyers. In raw sugar the market is quiet, refiners being well supplied. Refined is in less demand and prices are in- clined to yield. The failures for the past seven davs throughout the country have been 110, against 170 last week, which Is still con siderably above th average. The geograph ical distribution of the failures is aa lollows: Eastern States, 13; Western, 41; Southern, 17; Middle, including New York, 28, and the Pacific coast States 11. Thejnost important f these casualties occurred in couueclum with the grain speculation at Chicago. MISSISSIPPI MATTERS. Mosa Point has the measles. DeKalb is to have a new courthouse. N. I.

THE LEGAL POINTS Which Show Oat Prominently in Gni-- leau's Cane His Counsel Paving the Way for a Plea of Insanity. The Trial Promises to be One of (he Most Exciting Ever Had in the Country Unitean'n Tlca. Washington Special to tho Chicago Tribune, Thursday. In conversation with Mr. Scoville this evening, he stated to your correspondent that the prison:r was glad to see him, and said his was the only friendly face he had seen in many days. He said he had written several letters to Mr. Scoville and his wife (Gtiiteau's sister), but had not received aaTy reply, aud thought they had not been sent: "What do 'you propose to do iu the case, Mr. Scoville?" ' - "I saw District-Attorne- y Corkhill and he promised to let me know when Gui-tea- u would lie arraigned. THE SOONER. THIS 13 IXIS'E THE BETTER, so far as I tin concerned, for I have a great deal of work ahead in defending the pris oner. I shall 'plead 'not guilty' to the in- dictment, and ask the court to grant time for the raking ot testimony. Wt defense will be insanity, and, if given time, I will have on difficulty in securing witnesses on this point." "Will any one else be associated with you?" "That has not yet been decided, I have not yet spoken to any one 0.1 the subject, and probably will not till I have visited New York. There are several gentleman there who are anxious to get into the case, aud I shall probably consult wilh them as soon as 1 can reach JSew lork. ' "In your talk with Guiteau, did he appear to realize the danger he is in?" "I think not. He has not been kept in formed as to public sentiment, and is still of the opinion that, if his views and motives should be presented, the people would look at the subject diflerentlv lrom what they do. Of course, that is all bosh. I told him to day that there waa not another man in the rxrrED states who would dare advocate, let alone express such views." "When do you expect the prisoner will he arraigned." "I understand, from my conversation with Colonel Corkhill that he will lie brought up from the jail to plead to the indictment, aud will then be remand cd for trial. I do not anticipate that we will be delayed more than three weeks in getting to trial." "Will you remain here constantly?" "No. As soon as Guiteau is sent back to jail I shall go to New York, aud consult with the gentlemen 1 have alluded to. lrom thero I shall go to Boston, Massachusetts, where Uuiteau has a brother, from whom desire certain documentary evidence as to his insanity. Before I return to Washington 1 shall visit the Oneida Community and Vinceland, New Jersey, as I am told that several important witnesses reside in these places. One witness of his insanity before the shooting would be worth dozens since the affair, for it would at once be said thatwc were trying to get him free on an old dodge." "have you received axv aid ironi outside parties to assist you in conduct-in- the defense?" "None in the world, except wlmt my wifo and myself will furnish. We had intended to let the Court assign him counsel, but when I received Guiteau's reiiuust througu Colonel Corkhill that I would assist him, I immedi ately decided to do what I could nndrr the circumstances. 1 shall mitke it my business to learn where he has stopped and whom he has met since he left Chicago, and will hunt up every witness that I can. My wife and I h.id decided upon this couse of action before I received the communication asking me to defeud him. I mo not anticipate any trouble 111 securing a fair trial for the prisoner, for, if I did. 1 would wash my hands of the whole matter, aud let the court be responsible for any result afterward. "how does guiteau feel. about aiearing in court?" 'lie is naturally of a timid disiiosition, and the recent attempt upon his life has frightened him considerably, lie fears vio lence when he U being tnkcn to court, and has requested me to use every effort to insure his safety. 1 assured him to-d- that 1 did not anticipate any attempt upon him, and that the authorities would see that he was protected. While talking with him this morning 1 asked 1.1m aootil me attack on the guard, McGill, and he stated that on the night it occurred he was lying in his bed partly awake, with his face toward the cell iloor. Suddenly the door was ojiened care fully by Met nil. and he crept in with a pis tol, liiutcau sars he wailed until he was within a few feet of him and was in the act of leveling the pistol, when he jumped out of bed and grappled with him. In the senilis the pistol was discharged, when the other guards arrived. The knife about hich so much has been said was found on the floor. Guiteau denies ever having had it in his possession, but savs McGill dropped it out of his pocket, hrst, however, cutting hole in hi clothing to make it appear that the prisoner had done it. Whatever his other faults, I have always found the pris oner truthful in his dealings with me, and I mu-.- t say that I am inclined to believe his version of the affair." "Has Guiteau any relatives except his sis ter?" YES, HE HAS A BROTnF.lt, JOHN W. OriTEAU, who is an insurance agent in Boston. He declines, however, to do anything for him and the only thing 1 shall ask ot him wil lie certain letters written to him by the pris oner several years ago, when he first showed signs of being a monomaniac on religious subjects. hen will yon leave V ashington.' Probably to morrow atternoon; at any rate just as soon as the prisoner is arraigned.

George Scoville, brolher-in-la- of the assassin, arrived in the city yesterday from Chicago, accompanied by his wito, and for obvious reasons proceeded at once to private quarters previously engaged for him. Early in the afternoon Scoville called on Colonel Corkhill and had a long interview, imme diately succeeding which he was interviewed by a reporter ot the J ot, and in substance said: "I have not seen my client and rela tive yet. My first busiuess was with the District Attorney, who treated me very courteously. Colonel tjorkhiu kmdlv ex pressed his sympathy for the position I find myself placed in, aud prollcred all the- - as sistance projier under the circumstances. should greatly desire to have assist me. possible, in my Hue of defense. Mr. Merrick or Colonel Totten, or both. Thes two gen tlemen have been especially recommended to me, and Mr. Merries., who is an old Chicago lawyer, is well known to us all." When asked whst his line of defense would be, Mr. Scoville saU : 11 1 did not think the unlortunat man was insane I would not defend him at all If he is not insane, and it cannot bs made to clearly appear so, he ought to be Iiiihl-- . Still I shall be governed largely in my cause bv the advice ol niv associate counsel, and can not say definitely what pleas we shall offer." In answer to the question whether his ile- fense would embrace any allegations tha malpractice 011 the part of the surgeons con tribute.! to or was the cause of the Prcsi dent's death, Scoville said: A good many doctors nave assured me there were good grounds for defense on such a position, and 1 have been told Dr. Ham mond, of New York, who is certainly a mu eminent authority, asserts that the Preti dent's death was due to the treatment: but. as I have already said, mv strong rock of dclense is the of this un fortunate man tor the cruel crime against our beloved President on the ground of his and nil less 1 am overruled by my associates that will be the position I shall adhere to." Scoville said he hoped to be granted a continuance 01 the trial, in ordc to arrange his defense and procure the at- tendance of witnesses. He also said a mini ber of lawyers, and some of them prominent ones, had written him proffering him legal assistance in conducting the defense, but h had not yet accopted any of them. Mr. Scoville is a man about fifty years ago. In jiersonal appearance he resembles ami, at present, lirst l oin. troller Lawrence, of the Treasury Depart ment, ne was asked: "What do vou know of the prisoner's san ity!" "Many members of his family on the fath er's side have been insane. His mother hail a severe attack of brain fever before he was born, but I do not know that there was anv insanity on her side. Augustus Parker.tiu eau s cousin, a sou 01 nis miners brother, died in an insane asylum in Cook countv, Illinois, parser .was a musician, lie was unable to properly support his family, lie applied for the agency of the Decker piano in Chicago when a vacancy in that position occurred, and for some time lie thought it would be given him.

Abbie Maynard, a daughter o W tUiam a, Maynard, of Ann Arbor, Mich gan, also a cousin of Guiteau, was iierfectl saae until she reached her eighteenth vear, Then she became a monomaniac on religious subjects, and at length was placed in au asy lum.

He has been off the track at least once since he left Oneida, lie ia not smart, neither has he a decent mental equilib rium. "Did he appear to dread the idea of com ing to court when you saw him lie is afraid of the violence ot a mob." A 1'analaKly Ieylel Defenn. Washington Special to the Chicago Inter-Ocea- Guiteau has already planned his defense. It is based upon the assertion "The deed was ithout malice, and malice is the essence ol murder." In a brief, well-writte- n argument, he supiorts hia position with remarkable force, llis associate counsel will probably dispel this pleasing illusion. He will be told that while his position may be correct in the abstract, that in the concrete malice is presumed, and. therefore, naught but the commission of the act remains to be proved. It is thought he and his associate counsel will then fall back on the insanity theory, As soon as he has been arraigned his coun sel will ask for a postponement for some time. This will probably be granted. "Then," say prominent members of the Dis- trict bar, "his counsel, if shrewd, will pre pare for his trial in our criminal court', and without making any strenuous efforts to prove that it has no jurisdiction, contest the case step by step until the inevitable con viction. lliat point reached, be will ask one of the Associate Justices of our Supreme Court, perhaps Justice Wylie, who issued the same writ in Mrs. Surratt's case, for a writ of habeas corpus, and on this he will take the case to the Supreme (Jourt of the Cm ted States, al leging want of jurisdiction on the part of our Unminal Uourt. It the Supreme Uourt de cides that he ia right, as so many lawyers think it will, Guiteau goes free. If not, he hangs. But you see the wisdom of this course. If Guiteau should plead to the jurisdiction of our "court, and the court should decide in his favor, he could be and would be tried in New Jersey, but if the Su preme Court of the United States decides that our court did not have jurisdiction over is case, he cannot be tried again in iNew Jersey or anywhere else, xou will remem ber that it is written in the fifth Amend ment to the tJonst 1 1 ution : "Nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice to be put in jeopardy of life or limb."

time ao the well known otat.stic.anMr. Atkinson, of Do,exivl,,a cotton

in a iwrie of article a.icnt the Exhibition at

Atlanta, which jit now challenges general

,.,;!,! ic attention, insisted that cotton factorieseo'nlJ nut I marie as vr.ifital.le investment

at the South a at the North. He

challenged fiicccssf.il contradiction of his

iirv and statements au.J wmfJ for a time

K cairr pub ic oninirn with him, so great

wa the leverage of hi name. But he was

anJ quicker and more thoroughly

than he fipcctfl. All the leading paper of

the South tpran- -, full armed, to the defense

of siuon which they had been the Unst to

mx-np- They cheerfully acknowledged the

inJcbiedrifss of our section to Mr. Atkinson

kr many kindly and cheering words and for

a fficudiines that many time took on a

pvorr-.- form and came ia time to meet the

carping or traduction of our political ene-

mies. Keiuforcics the figure and facts then

i.un,:.iai!y Mipplied to meet and refute

what u admittedly great an authority had

C.Tc-- to quwt the fear, of our friends of

w England, the Census Bureau furnishes

onie dgure-- that cannot b gain.aysd. For in-

stance, welearn from them that New England

par ll.Go cents pr pound, the South 10.51,

a Jiferrnco of 1.14, or ten per cent; in othermot.ii, were the New England mills situ-

ated in the South, they would aunually save

Jo.l7I.6-- for cotton alone, which wouldenai le them to pay four cent, additionaldividrnd on their capital, a great deal morethan many of them now pay. In the

matter of waa the showing ia equallyfavorable b the South. The average wages

of hands in New England is $--36 64: in the

Sc;h, $161 60 a year, an item which would

make a difference of 59,561,S25 in the ex-fr-

of the New England mills yearly, orsix per cent on their capital. It should be

.atA bv the bv, that while some of this difference in wages ia due to a difference in ekilltit i M wholly so. Cotton-mi- ll labor in therV uth commands lower wages than in theNorthern Plate, because there is more laborin the market here than is absolutely needed,and because the cost of living is cheaper inthis section. The two items, cotton andlabor, will make a difference of between tenand eleven per cent, on the capital of theNew England companies. Besides these ad-

vantages, as the New Orleans Democrat

pc.cu oiit, tLere U the advantage of climate,which enable the Southern mills to workthe . ode year ronnd, instead of closingf. me days during winter on account of the

aeritT of the weather; and the water pow

er. . I which there U an abundance in nearlya'.l ih Southern Stale. Thus, as the Demo-c-j

ys if we "take the 433 cotton-mill- s

d. w in th North and transfer them to theS.cth, as many New England cap- -

a.-- already proposing to do. Esti-

mating the other operating expenses of themills at one-thir- d the cost of wages and cot- -

t a. the New England mills while in NewEoc'and wonld return $16,178,108 of profits;if iter were in the South, paving at the

rale that the Southern mills pay for cottonand labor, they would net $37,954,171, or 24

1t cent." All the facts in regard to the manufacture of cotton are in oarfavor. As the census retarnsshow oar millsluake finer goods on the average than thosecf New England, earning eleven cents a'

yard for the goods turned out by them,whereas the New England mills get onlye'eht and a half cents. With this informa-

tion before them how can capitalists hesitateto embark in cotton factories?

TBI IIMISIPPI RITCR BOtTE.Now that Eads's jetties have given a safe

c atict to the sea through the South Pass, therailroad and canal monopolies of the Eastand Weet have been stimulated to renewedexertions fur the protection of their own interest. Ihe capitalist who own these monop-

olies are not stupid dolts, silly enough todeny the success of the jetties in the face ofpractical facts. They are shrewd, sagaciousbusiness men, and admit that ia the futurethe Mississippi river w to be a formidablerival Indeed, it may be safely assumed thatthis route to the sea will Boon "monopolizethe business of transporting the grain of theWest and South to the port of NewOrleans. The facts and figuresshow most conclusively that itis ripidly gaining' the ascendency over allother rentes to the sea. The New YorkTtsxet sees the handwriting upon thewall, and confesses that the railroad andcanal monopolies of the East and West willhave to succumb to the inevitable. Thisgreat journal has a reputation to lose, andit does not propose to hazard it by dispar-aging the success of the outlet which thejellies furnish to the commerce of the coun-try. It says:

New York owes Its present position to the cir-cumstances of ibe past. The settlement and

of the Western country proceeded fmtnUiia direction, and lbs means of transportationfoUowed me advancing line of population aud in-dustry to brine back their surplus products. TheHn,ion rlverand ibe Erie canal gave New York awater connection with the great lake, and sowith the rrain fields of the West, and the grettsTitem of railroads In its development spreadfrom this point westward, Imrinic the days ofSlavery La the 6ontb. and those of the war and re-construction, an Industrial barrier ran across thecountry, turning, the course of transiortation tothe eastward from the upjier Mbmisglppi Valley.From mess circumstances the ports ol the NorthAtlantic coast, and New York in particular, havederived great advantages. Now, however, theertlcnal barrier la removed, and the region of theMiaxuriDBf Vallev Is so fsr tilled un thut its neonieno longer look to tb eastward for an outlet formeir productions. They are looking for the mosteconomical and Drofitable mm to the spa. Thehave dlsuovered that the Mississippi river and itsuioutanea consume a natural system ol transpor-tation by water which has heretofore been very in-adequately utiliied, and they are Inquiringwhether it Is profitable to send so large a propor-tion of .elr bulky commodities to the Atlanticcoast by rail, or by tortuous laks. canal and riverroutes when the drainage of their own valleys

wo uuu wrouga uavigaDia cnanneis.These are the candid views of a newspaper

whose sympathies are naturally with themonopolies, whose exactions and control ofthe grain trade of the Wesi have contributedto the prosperity of New York. It was notslavery in the South, the war or reconstruc-tion that prevented the Mississippi riverfrom becoming the great outlet to the seayears ago, bat it was the obstructions at therxiuth Pass. These having been removed byCaptain Eads the greatest civil engineer ofthe age the Mississippi river will drain theproducts of the great valley just as naturallyas it drains the water which it carries to thesea. The New York Timet is opposed tofurther appropriations for the great riverand its tributaries, but it sees the in-

evitable result which will follow the uniteddemand of the Southern and Western peo-

ple, and says:The earnestness with which this Inquiry Is

presned is calculated to arouse those concerned inthrough Hues of railway, runnlnc eaxt and west,those whose Interests are connected with canalrominuuli Htiou from the lakes fo the sou, aud thecanons ifti.Hte prwipcri.vand growth are bound up

with the business of sending the product of thost to foreign markets, to new exertions for the

protection ol their own interests. The Mississippiroute threatens a formidable rivalrv which cannot1k regarded with in.liHun.iice. It f tho purpose fthe coming Convention to urge a lilx-rs- l naiionttlpolicy of Improvement for Hie MisMNsipul riveran.f lis tiibuinrfl s, whereby all obstacles to navi-gation may be ruinoved at the expense cf the ,iolecouiitry. The Governor of Missouri, in respondingto the invitation to appoint delegates to the Con-vention on behalf of his mate, inti-mate that what is- - needed is sn

, appropriation which "will givo us six feetof water from St. Paul to Bt. Louis, eight feel from

t. Ixiuis to Cairo, and ten feet Iroin Cairo to NewOrleans." with correMponillng Improvement of theMissouri and Ohio rivers. This is to he asked forst liie national expense, and, considering the po-litical fiowcr wlcl.i. il bv the Stntes whose ti.tcrelare involved aud tho liberal spirit In which thescheme has already been entertained bv Congress,it hi not sate to awiime that It will not be granted.At nil events, there can doubt that allneeded anil practicable Improvement of navigationoil these groat streams o! the West will Ik securedJn some way before many years have kacd.

In these predictions the Timrs will prove aprophet, for the combined influence of theSouth and AVest will secure all the appro-priations needed to give Unobstructed navi-

gation to the Mississippi river and its tribu-

taries. So long as tho impediments at SouthPass prevented a safo outlet to the sea, ap-

propriation! to the Miasissippi river and itstributaries were justly refused by Congress,But the removal of these obstructions willforce all .the appropriation needed. TheTimet, in the following extract, gives somefaint idea of what the traffic of the Missis-sippi river will be in future years:

Prior to 1RT8 ths export trade by th Mississippiroute amounted to Utile. Iu 1H7 It was nearlytOO.Ou tons, lneludlug over 6 (MO.OOO bushels ofgrain, and In Ihso over 813.000 tons, includingmors than 1ft. 70U,ouO bushels of grain. Ibis year,from thenpeniug of navigation In February to the1st of August, th shipment of grain from hr.I'Wits to New Orleans Included nearly 8 fioo.000lx,hela of wheal and ft.ftiu.UiiO bushels of corn.A single steamer with a tow of bargr has takenon one trip I.J.S71 bushels of wheat and 1W.S44bushels ol corn, with other freight, making In allover 10.0CI0 tons. Ills said that it would requirefifty tialns of twenty cars each to bring the aaniebulk of merchsudlM to Sew York by rail, and Itmaybe calculated how many canal-boa- t of '0

tons each would be required to take it fromthe lakes to this city. Anotherstatement made In this connection Isthat sucb vast cargoes hav been deliveredIn th elevators at New Orleans within theof departure from Bt. Xxiuis, and that all th mil.roads running eastward from the same point oindnot deliver a lik amount lu a roomn g)t. Louis

already emplovs In this business eight elevators,costing ti.W.OOO. and having a capaeity of 6,700.-uu- o

while additions are being made witha capaeitv of over S.OoO.OOO bushels. Barges al-

ready In use aie cs liable of carrving 5,000,000 btifper month. Still more significant la tho calcu-

lation that in favorable seasons, with good navi-gation, train can be carried from St. Louis to Newf'iri.MaoH for two anl a half cents a bushel while Itcosts about twenty-tw- cents to bring it from Chicago topicw ora. I noeana otner ntcis ouuiboucareful study in all their liearings from these in-

terested in railroads, canals and foreign shippitigIn this iart of the country.

The tone of the Timet' t article, most of

which is quoted above, shows that it waa

written in the interest of the monopolies to

admonish them of the dangers ahead, andhow to devise means to destroy a rival eo

formidable. But in the end it will be dis-

covered that even bloated monopolies, withall thoir boasted capital, cannot pervert thenatural channels of trade. Commerce willalways be governed by the most economicalrouta to the sea. The Valley of the Mississippi produces the products which make upmost of our exports, and the exchange of

hich for foreign commodities constitute thebulk of our commerce with other countries,for this the Mishissippi 'river is the naturaloutlet. If tho Mississippi river traffic has

grown so rapidly since the removal of theobstructions at the South 1'ass, with allthe disadvantages of snngs, shoals andobstructions at times of low water, whatmay we expect when all these obstructionsare removed? The Mississippi river is

rapidly gaining the ascendancy over allother routes to the sea. In a few years thepeople of Memphis may stand upon the bluffand see the commerce of America gentlygliding to the ocean. This will give new ac--

vity to the whole Valley, and new

profit in foreign trade, as our people willhave the benefit of handling and ahipping,and have a strong hold upon the traffic thatcomes to the country in return. The shipsthat transport our commerce from New Orleans to foreign ports will return loaded withthe commodities of o'her nations, and NewOrleans will become one of the greatest citieson the continent, to the direct benefit of allthe people of the South.

A Bit of m Breeae 1st Western Met ho-?i- t

Conference.

CuiCAoo, October 7. There was an angryand exciting scene in the Methodist Conference at Sycamore, yesterday, when Rev. Dr.Thomas, driven to it bv persistent persecution, confronted some of his persecutors andmade charges against one of them. Rev. Dr.Parkhurst and the friends of the latter gen.rleman tried to prevent Dr.. Thomas fromformally uresentincr the charges, but BishonWiley decided, notwithstanding the technical objections raised, that I t. 1 nomas couldpreter charges, which are that Dr. l'arkhurst,in an interview with a Chicago reporter,made statement against Dr. Thomas whichwere wilfully and maliciously false. Thecourt before which the heresy chargesagainst Dr. Thomas are being heard seems tobe rather hostile to the accused, at least theyhave so far decided against him in nearlyevery instance.

MORE OF THE SAME SORT.

A Chicago dispatch received y "says:"The committee appointed to try Dr. Thomas,of this city, on the charge of heresy in theMethodist Rock River Conference, havingbeen challenged by the defense on account otprejudice, was reorganized this morning, andthe trial will new proceed. Dr. Thomas hassubmitted a written complaint against Rev.Dr. Parkhursi, charging him with falsehoodand calumny in iiis speech at this trial in theC hicago District Court. Much feeling appa-rently exists both in Methodist circles andamong outsiders in coj'uection with the pend-ing trial of the alleged heretic." - -

A YEAR WITHOUT EAT1XCJ.

Remarkable Cao of Lire Prolonged by- Kaenai and Bsrtba.

Battx Creek, Mich., October 7. JubIone year ago this week Mrs. Nellie Ingram,of this city, who had been suffering severelyfrom neuralgia in her teeth, concluded tohave one of the molars extracted. Accord-ingly hhe repaired to the office of a dentist,Mr. N. Merritt, for that purpose. She wasthen enjoying the best of health, andweighed 180 pounds. The tooth was a verytroublesome one and in the jaw firm andfist, and the pain which she endnred fromits extraction was so excruciating aa to ex-cite her nervous system to such a degreethat she experienced a shock of nervousprostration, which ended in paralysis of thestomach. The carriage called and she wasconveyed to her home in a precarious con-dition. She suffered for several days withcramps in the bowels. .When sheattempted to eat food it refusedto remain on her stomach and produced themost violeiit retching pains, so that she wasobliged to give it up. It soon became evidentto her physicians that she could not be keptalive without the means of nourishment, andnot a particle of food passed her lips. Injec-tions were therefore given her, and life hasthns been prolonged for a year by the processof absorption of food by the walls of the in-

testines. Broth of beef tea, milk and suchnutritious food are also given her, with occa-eion- al

baths of alcohol to keep the poresopen. She hss thus lived twelvemonths, nota particle of food passing her lips, life beingsnpported entirely in this way. When she ishungry, broth, milk or ' beef tea, oran injection, seems to satiafy her ap-petite, the same as though eaten inthe usual way. But although thisrather thin diet keeps her alive it does notprove very fattening, aa she ha reduced herweight iu this time from 180 to about 70ouiuls, or at the rate of over two pounds

per week loss. Her face has quite a healthyuppearance, and would not strike one as be-

longing to a person whose body was so ema-ciated as to he little less thai) akin audlones. She is only able to obtain about twoor thiee hours sleep nightly, and that to-

ward morning, when the vitality of the bodyis very low. With the returning activity ofthe senses, she begins the retchings whichIhe spasmodic actions of nature continuethrough the day and until hersystem is completely exhausted, whenrhe again falls into the sleepdescribed. The drain on her nervous systemhas been so great that she has now lost herreason, and her voice ia so weak that she can(peak only in a low whisper; and she contin-ually grows worse, so that her death is dailyexpecud. The case has been frequently described, and the accounts have been widelycopied, aud created no little interest. Lettersare being received by her physicians from all

aria ol the united Male. t

NEW ORLEANS.New Orleans, October 7. The week has

developed luncn more acuvtiy in cotion,and fluctuations have been wider than forsome time. The drop in Liverpool hascaused holders to sell more freely, and thebetter grades are off j to c Ou the otherhand, the lower erades have appreciatedsome owing to the scarcity.

The aggre-gate of goods sold is said to be enormous.Leaf tobacco has dragged during the week,and some sales were made at lower prices.Holders generally are firm, however, andshow no disposition to let go. Groceries werevery active, with steady and firm prices forall articles, except refined sugars, which ad-

vanced i& Dry goods in all kinds ofbranches had an unusual rush of buyers, butprices show no change. There will probablybe an early advance, however, iu both cottonand woolen goods.

NEW YORK.New York, October 7. Business has

resumed an even flow and is fairly active,and indications are in favor of a good falltrade. The dry goods trade is fair, and thefeeling generally satisfactory, with a betterdemand for heavy woolens. The upwardtendency of prices in the grain trade has beenarrested by the Chicago troubles, and therehas been a slight drop in the markets. Thecotton market is weak, with alight tluctuations and downward tendency. The busi-

ness being done in leaf tobacco in the bestthat has beeu transacted for many years, anddealers are making money; cigar manu-facturers are all doing well and have ordersahead. The leather trade continues dull.Hides are dull, and there is a large stockhere and afloat; prices favor buyers. Inboots and ahoea there is more activity. Thedrug trade has probably recovered from itslong inactivity. In hardware the feeling isgood; the fall trade so far has been largeand healthy, and many lines of goods' arescarce.

clined to yield. The failures for the pastseven davs throughout the country have been110, against 170 last week, which Is still considerably above th average.

THE LEGAL POINTS

Which Show Oat Prominently in Gni--

leau's Cane His Counsel Paving theWay for a Plea of Insanity.

The Trial Promises to be One of (heMost Exciting Ever Had in the

Country Unitean'n Tlca.

Washington Special to tho Chicago Tribune,Thursday.

In conversation with Mr. Scoville thisevening, he stated to your correspondentthat the prison:r was glad to see him, andsaid his was the only friendly face he hadseen in many days. He said he had writtenseveral letters to Mr. Scoville and his wife(Gtiiteau's sister), but had not received aaTy

reply, aud thought they had not been sent:"What do 'you propose to do iu the case,

Mr. Scoville?" ' -"I saw District-Attorne- y Corkhill

and he promised to let me know when Gui-tea- u

would lie arraigned.THE SOONER. THIS 13 IXIS'E THE BETTER,

so far as I tin concerned, for I have a greatdeal of work ahead in defending the prisoner. I shall 'plead 'not guilty' to the in-

dictment, and ask the court to grant time forthe raking ot testimony. Wt defense willbe insanity, and, if given time, I will haveon difficulty in securing witnesses on thispoint."

"Will any one else be associated withyou?"

"That has not yet been decided, I havenot yet spoken to any one 0.1 the subject, andprobably will not till I have visited NewYork. There are several gentleman therewho are anxious to get into the case, aud Ishall probably consult wilh them as soon as1 can reach JSew lork. '

"In your talk with Guiteau, did heappear to realize

the danger he is in?""I think not. He has not been kept in

formed as to public sentiment, and is still ofthe opinion that, if his views and motivesshould be presented, the people would lookat the subject diflerentlv lrom what they do.Of course, that is all bosh. I told him today that there waa

not another man in the rxrrED stateswho would dare advocate, let alone expresssuch views."

"When do you expect the prisoner will hearraigned."

"I understand, from my conversation withColonel Corkhill that he will liebrought up from the jail to pleadto the indictment, aud will then be remandcd for trial. I do not anticipate that we willbe delayed more than three weeks in gettingto trial."

"Will you remain here constantly?""No. As soon as Guiteau is sent back to

jail I shall go to New York, aud consultwith the gentlemen 1 have alluded to. lromthero I shall go to Boston, Massachusetts,where Uuiteau has a brother, from whomdesire certain documentary evidence as tohis insanity. Before I return to Washington1 shall visit the Oneida Community andVinceland, New Jersey, as I am told thatseveral important witnesses reside in theseplaces. One witness of his insanity beforethe shooting would be worth dozens sincethe affair, for it would at once be saidthatwc were trying to get him free on anold dodge."

"have you received axv aidironi outside parties to assist you in conduct-in-

the defense?""None in the world, except wlmt my wifo

and myself will furnish. We had intendedto let the Court assign him counsel, but whenI received Guiteau's reiiuust througu ColonelCorkhill that I would assist him, I immediately decided to do what I could nndrr thecircumstances. 1 shall mitke it my businessto learn where he has stopped and whom hehas met since he left Chicago, and will huntup every witness that I can. My wife and Ih.id decided upon this couse of action beforeI received the communication asking me todefeud him. I mo not anticipate any trouble111 securing a fair trial for the prisoner, for,if I did. 1 would wash my hands of thewhole matter, aud let the court be responsiblefor any result afterward.

"how does guiteau feel.about aiearing in court?"

'lie is naturally of a timid disiiosition,and the recent attempt upon his life hasfrightened him considerably, lie fears violence when he U being tnkcn to court, andhas requested me to use every effort to insurehis safety. 1 assured him to-d- that 1 didnot anticipate any attempt upon him, andthat the authorities would see that he wasprotected. While talking with him thismorning 1 asked 1.1m aootil me attack onthe guard, McGill, and he stated that on thenight it occurred he was lying in his bedpartly awake, with his face toward the celliloor. Suddenly the door was ojiened carefully by Met nil. and he crept in with a pistol, liiutcau sars he wailed until he waswithin a few feet of him and was in the actof leveling the pistol, when he jumped outof bed and

grappled with him.In the senilis the pistol was discharged, whenthe other guards arrived. The knife about

hich so much has been said was found onthe floor. Guiteau denies ever having had itin his possession, but savs McGill dropped itout of his pocket, hrst, however, cuttinghole in hi clothing to make it appear thatthe prisoner had done it. Whatever hisother faults, I have always found the prisoner truthful in his dealings with me, and Imu-.- t say that I am inclined to believe hisversion of the affair."

"Has Guiteau any relatives except his sister?"YES, HE HAS A BROTnF.lt, JOHN W. OriTEAU,who is an insurance agent in Boston. Hedeclines, however, to do anything for himand the only thing 1 shall ask ot him willie certain letters written to him by the prisoner several years ago, when he first showedsigns of being a monomaniac on religioussubjects.

hen will yon leave V ashington.'Probably to morrow atternoon; at any

rate just as soon as the prisoner is arraigned.My knowledge of criminal law is somewhatlimited, and my principal effort will be devoted to finding witnesses and producingthem in court.

IrepnrlOsT for Ine Insaully Dodge.Special to the Cincinnati Times-Star- .

It is now proposed to bring Guiteau fromthe jail to court in a safe like the Treasurywagon uses lor the trai.iportat.on ot coinand bullion.

George Scoville, brolher-in-la- of theassassin, arrived in the city yesterday fromChicago, accompanied by his wito, and forobvious reasons proceeded at once to privatequarters previously engaged for him. Earlyin the afternoon Scoville called on ColonelCorkhill and had a long interview, immediately succeeding which he was interviewedby a reporter ot the J ot, and in substancesaid: "I have not seen my client and relative yet. My first busiuess was with theDistrict Attorney, who treated me verycourteously. Colonel tjorkhiu kmdlv expressed his sympathy for the position I findmyself placed in, aud prollcred all the- - assistance projier under the circumstances.should greatly desire to have assist me.possible, in my Hue of defense. Mr. Merrickor Colonel Totten, or both. Thes two gentlemen have been especially recommended tome, and Mr. Merries., who is an old Chicagolawyer, is well known to us all."

When asked whst his line of defensewould be, Mr. Scoville saU :

11 1 did not think the unlortunat manwas insane I would not defend him at allIf he is not insane, and it cannot bs made toclearly appear so, he ought to be Iiiihl-- . StillI shall be governed largely in my cause bvthe advice ol niv associate counsel, and cannot say definitely what pleas we shall offer."

In answer to the question whether his ile-

fense would embrace any allegations thamalpractice 011 the part of the surgeons contribute.! to or was the cause of the Prcsident's death, Scoville said:

A good many doctors nave assured methere were good grounds for defense on sucha position, and 1 have been told Dr. Hammond, of New York, who is certainly a mueminent authority, asserts that the Pretident's death was due to the treatment: but.as I have already said, mv strong rock ofdclense is the of this unfortunate man tor the cruel crime againstour beloved President on the ground of his

and nil less 1 am overruled by myassociates that will be the position I shalladhere to." Scoville said he hoped to begranted a continuance 01 the trial, in ordcto arrange his defense and procure the at-

tendance of witnesses. He also said a miniber of lawyers, and some of them prominentones, had written him proffering him legalassistance in conducting the defense, but hhad not yet accopted any of them.

Mr. Scoville is a man about fifty yearsago. In jiersonal appearance he resembles

ami, at present, lirst l oin.troller Lawrence, of the Treasury Department, ne was asked:

"What do vou know of the prisoner's sanity!"

"Many members of his family on the father's side have been insane. His mother haila severe attack of brain fever before he wasborn, but I do not know that there was anvinsanity on her side. Augustus Parker.tiueau s cousin, a sou 01 nis miners brother,

died in an insane asylum in Cook countv,Illinois, parser .was a musician, lie wasunable to properly support his family, lieapplied for the agency of the Decker pianoin Chicago when a vacancy in that positionoccurred, and for some time lie thought itwould be given him. Auother man securedthe place. Parker went raving mad almostimmediately, and in a few weeks he died inthe asylum. Abbie Maynard, a daughter oW tUiam a, Maynard, of Ann Arbor, Michgan, also a cousin of Guiteau, was iierfectlsaae until she reached her eighteenth vear,Then she became a monomaniac on religioussubjects, and at length was placed in au asylum. She was there three vears ago, andvet, unless she has died. It is one of thepoints to be looked up. Dr. Wilson Guiteau. v v- i .1... : ' i01 nrw sura, lue iinsoner a iiui-ie-

was ' craay, and waa incarceratedin an asvlum in New Yorkwhere he died several years tffo. LutherW. Citiiteau, the prisoner's father, wss regarded by many people in Freeport, Illinois,as insane upon religious subjects, althoughhe waa a good business man and perfectlysane anon other matters. 1 do not make i

point, however, ttbout Guiteau, Sr., as ihoevidence is soomwhat contlictiug. Guiteau.t'n- a win iu ihe Oueida C itiiuniuvia ihe time he waa eighteen ye --

: '.d un-

til he reached the age of twenty-fou- r sixyears and I want to investigate that periodof his life. My wife says that he was kept inclose confinement as a deranged person forover a week during that period. Gui--teau, like his father, has been a religiousmonomaniac. He has been off the track atleast once since he left Oneida, lie ia notsmart, neither has he a decent mental equilibrium.

"Did he appear to dread the idea of coming to court when you saw him

lie is afraid of the violence ot a mob."

A 1'analaKly Ieylel Defenn.Washington Special to the Chicago Inter-Ocea-

Guiteau has already planned his defense.It is based upon the assertion "The deed was

ithout malice, and malice is the essence olmurder." In a brief, well-writte- n argument,he supiorts hia position with remarkableforce, llis associate counsel will probablydispel this pleasing illusion. He will betold that while his position may be correctin the abstract, that in the concrete malice ispresumed, and. therefore, naught but thecommission of the act remains to be proved.It is thought he and his associate counselwill then fall back on the insanity theory,As soon as he has been arraigned his counsel will ask for a postponement for sometime. This will probably be granted."Then," say prominent members of the Dis-

trict bar, "his counsel, if shrewd, will prepare for his trial in our criminal court', andwithout making any strenuous efforts toprove that it has no jurisdiction, contest thecase step by step until the inevitable conviction. lliat point reached, be willask one of the Associate Justices ofour Supreme Court, perhaps JusticeWylie, who issued the same writin Mrs. Surratt's case, for a writ of habeascorpus, and on this he will take the case tothe Supreme (Jourt of the Cm ted States, alleging want of jurisdiction on the part of ourUnminal Uourt. It the Supreme Uourt decides that he ia right, as so many lawyersthink it will, Guiteau goes free. If not, hehangs. But you see the wisdom of thiscourse. If Guiteau should plead to thejurisdiction of our "court, and the courtshould decide in his favor, he could be andwould be tried in New Jersey, but if the Supreme Court of the United States decidesthat our court did not have jurisdiction over

is case, he cannot be tried again in iNewJersey or anywhere else, xou will remember that it is written in the fifth Amendment to the tJonst 1 1 ution : "Nor shall anyperson be subject for the same offense to betwice to be put in jeopardy of life or limb."
