Answer Under sanction of Deity.
Porter Was your entering the Oneida
Community an inspiration?
The witness trequentiy reiusea to an
swer questions, or, as he termed it "tus
cuss the matter under inquiry." 'At
one time he appealed to the court for
protection against the manner of cross-
examination.
Judge Porter said, "I have not at
tempted to force a reply from you Mr.
Guiteau. If you will allow the jury to
understand that you refuse to answer it
will suit my purpose just as well."
The witness at once turned to Judge
Porter and inquired, "Well, what was
your question, Judge?"
Witness Was then asked if his enter
ing the Oneida Community was an in
spiration and if his leaving it was an
inspiration and declined to discuss the
subject.
Judge Porter then produced Guiteau' s
book, "Truth," which the witness
claimed was the result of direct inspi
ration from Deity, compared it para
graph by parenthesis with the "Be
rean." the Oneida Community book,
written by John H. Noyes.
He was then subjected to rapid ques
tions and soon began to exhibit irrita
bility and anger and his replies, when
given at all were in short, jerky senten
ces. He was asked if he laid in wait for the
President in an alley by night, and after
a short wrangle the witness said: "Now
you are on Yti give you a little news. I
will tell you what occurred that even
ing, Judge."
The witness then detailed his move
ments up to the time he saw the Presi
dent and Secretary Blaine emerge from
the house of the latter and walk down
Fifteenth Street. Said Guiteau: "They
walked alons so loungingiy, arm in
arm. They had their, heaas together
hkc two school girls, iheir lellowslup
was delisrhtful and it confirmed me in
the belief that Garfield had sold him
self body and soul to Blaine and that
Blaine was using him to ruin the stal
warts and the Republican party."
Guiteau then became furiously excited
and plunged into a harangue, denounc
ing Blaine as a bold, wicked, designing
man who wanted to ruin the Republi
can party in revenge: for two times he
had been slaughtered by political con
ventions. Striking the desk with con
siderable force he shouted: "íes. sir,
in my opinion Blaine is morally respon
sible for the death of Garfield.
Court then took recess.
After recess Guiteau resumed his tes
timony. ' '
Witness believed in the personal ex
istence of Deity and the devil and when
the impulse to remove the President
seized him he wrestled and prayed t
find if it came from the Lord or the der
il and had it not been for the political
situation and evident necessity for his
removal for the good of the country and
the American people he would not have
shot the President, but would have be
lieved the impulse was prompted by
the devil.
Witness was then asked: "Are you
insane at all? and replied: "I'm not
an expert. Let these experts and jury
decide that." ueing pressed lor las
opinion the witness declined, to an
swer.
Witness did not intend to remove the
President on the night that he visited
the Christian church. He went to see
where the President sat. He intended
to remove him when he could find a fa
vorable opportunity. If he had remov
ed him then he would have shot him
through the head. He visited tho jail
about the 1st of June and he wanted to
see it because he expected be would be
taken there for removing the Presi
dent. He had his pistol with him in the
alley on the night of July 1st. He took
it out and examined it

Witness, became very! angry, and
reiterated Conscience had nothing to
do with it. From the first of June I
had no doubt of the necessity for the
removal of the President. Conscience
had nothing to do with it.
Being pressed for reasons for want
ing to go to jail after killing the Presi
dent, Guiteau said: For my own pro
tection, I did nt know wliat would be
the effect upon the popular mind. I
did not want to be exposed to a howl
ing mob. I thought they would say
"he is a disappointed office-seekea,let's
hang him,.' and I knew I would have
no time or chance to make known my
motives or inspiration, i
The examination of Guiteau was con
tinued to a quarter, past two, and the
Erisoner resumed his seat between his
rother and Scouille. At 2:30 the court
adjourned. . L ;

ring men think they have assurances
from some quarters that ex-Senator
Chaffee, of Colorado, is m be' the next
Postmaster-General and; they are for
some reason drawing lome comfort
from the fact in that connection.
ROUTE TO RUSSIA.
It is understood that ex-Governor
Routt, of Colorado, who believed him
self to be. General Grant's favorite can
didate for a Cabinet poütion has been
told that he is to be made Minister to
Russia. Doubting 'ones think neither
of these positions nas yet received the
assent of President Arthur, and a storv
is told that Governor Routt is designed
merelv to keep him from attaching nim
self to the Blaine Cabinet appointment
and tnus leave a clear neid lor unaneo
In spite of these claims; it is more than
probable that when lua next rostmas
ter-General is nominated it will be
found that he is a Missouri man.
. . SPEAKERSHIP flGHT.
The speakership fighttias taken a new
and most interesting phase since last
night. The stalwart element of the Re
publican party, led by Senator Camer
on is now hotly engaged in trying to
make a combination onr Keif er. Cam
eron went to New Yorli two or three
days ago and consulted with the stal
wart leaders there and he is working
all his influence for Keifcr here. The
anti-stalwarts are aware of this and
have concentrated on Hiscock. This
leaves Kasson a bad third. The stal
warts object to Kasson because Blaine
backs him. If Keifer is elected it will
be claimed as a stalwart victory, as an
anti-Cameron member from Pennsylva
nia said to-day that the stalwarts deci
ded to take Keifer as their caudidate to
beat Kiscock and Kasson and that Kei
fer 8 friends had agreed to this combi
nation. This membersays twelve of
the Pennsylvania delegates are certain
for Hiscock, and thinks fourteen will
vote for him. Keifer has two and Kas
son probably two, but the chances are
The friends of Keifer claim that His

cock has only seven votes from Penn

terms of this combination are 'that
Keifer shall try to get a stalwart dele
gation from Ohio in 1884. Butterworth
and other Ohioans admit there is a stal
wart combination, but deny that Keifer
is committed to the stalwarts in any
way and that talk is intended to hurt
him. Hiscock claims fifty-seven votes

- The First Bulnt as for Congrega.
New York, Dec. 2. A Washington
special says one or the nrst things that
will be brought up in Congress is the
settlement ot bills incidental to the late
President's illness. General Garfield's
friends will advocate the appointment
of a commission to audit all bills and
make a statement to the Secretary of
me .treasury, wnom they will ask to be
given power to pay the amount from
any money in the Ireasurynot other
wise appropriated, it is thought in
this way that the matter may be fixed
up quietly without any undignified
squauDimg in uongress over the pre
cise amount of money needed. The
physicians have been asked by the
financial agent of Mrs. Garfield to send
in their bills to her but they refused to
do so. Dr.. buss said he would not
think of taking from her fees that
would be a mere bagatelle to the Gov
ernment. Dr. Asrnew has figured a di.
rect loss to him through his connection
with the case and it amounts, it is re
ported, to be $9,000. Dr. Bliss' loss of
practice and expenses incident to his
devotion to the President amounts also
to the sum of 10,000. Ibis shows noth
ing for constant services, anxiety and
labor as nurse and physician, night and
aayior tne long weeits oi the iTesi
dent's illness. Agnew and Hamilton
did not give their entire time to the
case or their loss would have been
much greater, but Dr. Bliss surrender
ed his entire practice -of necessity,
Agnew, Hamilton and Bliss, it is ex
pected, will consider $25,000 each about
fair compensation for their- work
Barnes and Woodward are officers of
the Government, so they suffered ho
pecuniary loss from their attendance
'on the case. The physicians hope the
matter wm do settiea oeiore tne noli
days and General Garfield's friends de'
sire this settled before eulogies are pro-
nouncea. .

experts are fast abandoning tho idea

Other specials have the following:
Frequently Guiteau would break out
into teapots of passion, telling Porter
he was impudent; tnat nis questions
were dishonest; that he was stupid and
the like. Whenever a lawyer became
especially impressive in manner and
proposed a question with peculiar se
venty Guiteau would mimic his tone
and gesture in his retort and with such
audacity that it was impossible notto be
amused in spite of one s disgust at the
caricature.
The prisoner certainly had no notion
of submitting to the lawyer any further
than he pleased. Porter would fre
quently spurt at the assassin with a
question apparently without connection
and yet evidently oi great importance.
Thus he suddenly interrupted a series
of questions bearing on the Paris con
sulate with the inquiry: "Do you be

know what to say. He looked down

You are not?" said Judge Porter,

"JNo. replied the witness, "it has no

Judsre Porter said no more.but imme

experts that putting of Guiteau on the
witness stand was the first serious 'mis

"It is," said the gentlemen, "rapidly

The cross-examination has been so far
one of the most remarkable ever listen

the assassins responsibility at the time
he committed the crime than anything
else which has been brought to our at

Peruvian Affaira. "''':
Panama, Nov. á2. Calderón, the
sometime provisional President of Peru,
is now, with his Minister of ' Fdreign
Affairs, Galvez, a prisoner in Chilian
bands, tie was arrested on the bth
inst. as he was returning from mass
and allowed a few minutes in which to
prepare for a visit to Chili. He was
then taken to the palace where he had
a private interview with Admiral Lynch,
then sent on a special train to Calais
and then placed on board the ironclad
Almirtute Cochrane. He was courteous
ly treated and told he might take his
tamily with him (he was recently mar
ried) and any friends he desired to ac
company him. The first favor he de
clined, but the second he accepted and
selected several who share his exile.
The reason alleffed for this arbitrary
act are not yet made public, but Ad
miral Lynch isaid to have acted under
. .... y
orders from Santo Diago. No one in
Lima supposes it is done out of defiance
to the United States on account of the
attitude assumed towards Chili by Gen
eral Hurlbuit. There are surmises that
it was because Calderón disregarded
Lynch and orders prohibiting the exer
cise of any other authority within Chi
lian lines than that of the Chilian com
mander, or government other than
that of the new government of Mr.
Santa Maria who believes Pierola to be
the strongest man in the country and
has banisned Calderón to make wray for
him. l he removal oicaideron makes
room, however, for Montero, who
has announced his acceptance of the
Vice-Presidency of the Peruvian Gov
ernment, provided he is assured of the
support of the United States, in which
ca8e.he will assume the presidency in
Calderon's absence. General Hurlbut,
who interceded earnestly in behalf of
Mr. Garcia Calderón, is said to have
sent a messenger, Dr. Mouatjoy, to the
U. S. Cousul at Lambayeque to Mohte
rio at Cayamurea to assure him of sup
port and recognition if he comes to Li
ma, to succeed the exiled President.
The people in Lima do not understand
why General Hurlbut should take such
an interest in the politics of Peru and
interfere in matters of Dominant parties
or indivuals. The Diplomatic Corps,
one and all, condemn his actions, and
although exceedingly reticent in the
matter, it is understood to bo unanimous
in asserting that Hurlbut' s action has
complicated affairs to such an extent
that no one is competent to understand
the situation. The Chillians will pro
bably be understood by what they
mean to dó, and if it is their in
tention to treat with Pierola, whom
they have defeated in the fields of Char
rillas and Mirafters, andprobably think
he is as easy an' antagonist in diploma
cy as in war. No support which Gen.
eral Hurlbut can give will save Monte
ro from following his chief into banish
met. ,
Railway Xew.
Winnepeg, Dec. 2.- Gen. Rosser, of
the Canadian Pacific, on Monday, with
several directors select a point of its
junction whith the Northwestern rail
way. The snow blockade on the. Central
Pacific has been broken and tárins are
now running regularly. .
There is much agitation because the
Dominion Government intends to nulli
fy all charters granted by the.Lcgisla
ture. This will secure a monopoly of
the carrying trade to the Canadian Pa
cific. It is officially announced that no
road whatever except the Canadian
Pacific will be .allowed to approach
within fifteen miles of the international
boundry line. If this statement be
borne out by the facts, as it seems cer
tain it will be, the most serious compli
cations, will inevitably arise. -
' Riot and Doath. '
. Decatur, Ala., Dec. 2. A riot oc
curred yesterday at Aunisto, a mining
town in this State, in which many col

pistols. Policemen in attempting to
restore order shot and killed two ne
groes. The policemen were arrested
and exonerated.
Load Leaffao Keaalatloaa.
Chicago, December8. The following
resolutions were adopted by the Land
League :
Resolved, That as in words of the
Declaration of Independence, the con
sent of the people is tho only power
from which a government justly de
rives authority and as in the words of
one of her bright majesty's present cab
inet ministers, John Chamberlin, aftr
one hundred years of English rulo in
Ireland, English rule there can only be
maintained by force, this convention
declares English rule in Ireland
to be without either legal or moral
sanction and demands the establish
ment in Ireland of a National Govern
ment, based upon the will of the Irish
people. ' ' - 5
Resolved, That as the English Gov
ernment has avowed and resolved to
subjugate the Irish nation by wholesale
evictions, by the arrest of every friend
of the popular cause, the suspension of
every popular right and the terrorism
of military force ; and as the Irish peo
ple have snown an equal determination
to meet these and by passive resistance
to defeat these attacks on their liberties,
this convention representing the Irish
American race, pledgd the people of
Irish birth and Irish decent in this coun
try to stand by the people at home in
this mbmemtous straggle to extend their
power and resources.
Resolved, That this convention thor
oughly endorses the policy of the Irish
leaders at home and that we have en
tire confidence in their patriotism and
statesmanship and that we tender to
them and to tho Irish people at large
our expression of sympathy and as
surance that in every struggle against
British rule they will be fully sustained
by their kindred in America.
Resolved, That we heartily endorse
the "no rent" manifesto of tho home
executive f the Irish National Land
League, at once the best available
weapon to strike their landlords and
jailors and as a swift and smiting in
strument to abolish utterly a hateful
system, and as the fitting answer of the
Irish people to the attempt of the Co
ercion Act to force the acceptance of
j it i -a. ii. . ri - .1
aciecuve legislation hi uie pouu ui uie
bayonet.
Resolved, That, with a view to giving
practical efiect to the foregoing resoiu
tions, this conventioin recommends that
a special levy of . from the organ
izations here represented, and all other
organizations friendly to the Irish
cause and from friends of succ organi
zations, be forwarded as an instalment
before the 1st of February 1883, to the
Irish Treasury of the Irish National
Land League.
Burton, tho Stage Robber.
. Omaha, Dec. 2. H. W. Burton, the
noted Colorado stage robber passed

on.the way from Denver to the House
of Correction at Detroit, beinginchari
of the United States Marshal of Col

robbed a stage and eight passengers
near Waco, Texas, and got $200. He
next robbed a stage and three passen
gers near Bastróp, Texas, and soon
after he robbed, two coaches in one day.
lhe lirst coach contained seven men
and he got $3,000 the second 'coach had
six men from which ho got $300. He
was arrested and convicted and sen

Secretary Folarer and the Silver
Question.
New York, December 8. The Com
mercial's Washington special savs it is
believed Secretary Folger' will deal
plainly and directly in his report with
the. silver question. It is said he is in
cordial agreement with the views of the
director ot the mint as to the bad re
suits certain to follow the continuance
of the present rate of coinage of stand
ard dollars. There appearing to be
little ground for hoping tor any inter
national agreement respecting the coin
age of silver at a fixed rate tlie Secre
tary does not consider it. profitable, if
safe, to longer continue the effort to
deprecate the value of silver. It is
thought by stopping the coinage in this
country we may compel other govern
ments to come to some understanding.
