burning shame for the prosecution to
harp upon that word d~epravity. L have
been a consistent Christian all my life,
and because I committed adultery to
get rid of a woman 1 did not love, and
owe a few hundred dollars, it is a burn
ing shame for the prosecution to black
en- my character.
Despite the cries Of silence, silence,
and order, Guiteau continued to shrek
at the top Of his voice: l am not
afraid to go to the gallows If the Lord
Almighty wishes me to go there, but l
expect an act of God that will blow
this court and jury out Of the window
to protect me If necessary. 1 want to
thunder this in the ears of the Ameri-
can people.
Davidge, with an air of disgust, said:
Oh this pantomine business is getting
played out.
Guiteau. You are getting played
out, and your theory of prosecution
too. Recess.

THE POLYGS.
What Gov. Neal, of Idaho, Thinks Of
His Much Married Neighbors.
Some Plain Words on the Encroach-
ments of a Polygamous Church.
Gov. Neal ON MormonI.m.

Gov. Veal ON Mormonism
New York, Dec. 12.-Gov. Neal, Of
Idaho, now here, was interviewed yes.
terday by a Tribune reporter on the
subject OF mormonism. The former
said: "Mormonism is a serious quss-
tion on the Pacific coast, and the NOR
mons are making special efforts to con-
troll the territories outside of Utah,
where they have already complete mas
terry. If the press Of the country would
discuss the question thoroughly, senti-
ment would soon be created that would
compel congress to act in the matter. I
should also like to say that in the diY-
sion of parties in Utah In sympathy
with the mormon and anti-mormon,
there are nc republicans or democrats
known as such there; and 1 find among
staunchest autonomous such men as
Judge Roseborough, Judge Sutherland,
Col. Samuel Merritt and many other
prominent democrats, all as hostile as
any republican to the prevailing system.
1t is part of the plan of the mormon
church to populate the surrounding ter
ritories and states with a view Of ulti-
mately gaining political control of
them, and then by bargaining with
either of the political parties to have
the territories admitted as states, thus
obtaining the balance OF power In con-
gresS. In my opinion the mormon
church Is more OF a political than re-
hgious organization, n L am con-
vinced thai IS reasonable.
Mormonism is opposed 70 all u in
uusories' particularly TO mining, which
Is the reatest on The Pacific slope. Ii
she mormons had the power they would
noI permit an unc OF ore TO De mined,
nor indeed would they allow any person
hosthe 70 their peculiar institutions to
Set1ie IN their midst. L am frequently
asked now IN a free country Ike this
tne mormon priesthood exercises SO
complete control over the followers Of
the church, 1t is easy OF explanation.
Inc mormon population Is largely made
up Oh the lowest and most superstitious
classes OF foreigners. In their own
countries they were accustomed to sub
NIT TO priestiy domination or they
lived under a despotic government.

Fashion Ne fes.

Large pokes with sugar.loaf
crowns take precedence Of other
bonnets.
Plush is the prettlest trimming
for cheyiot dress when 1t is trimmed
at all.
Satin and plush muffs take the
place of fur ones in all but the
severest weather.
The fashionable brocades of this
winter are very magnificent, but
very expensive.
For all cloth-fnished fabrics self
trimmings and machine stitching
should be preferred.
Although great length is the
| feature of the winter wraps it IS
permissible to wear short ones.
Immense felt hats, with plushlike
edges to the brim are worn side
with small capotes oil velvet.
Combination costumes of new
stuffs should not be SO gay as those
where one or the other material Is
old.
Dark bronze and olive green are
very fashionable, especially when
relieved with a dash of bright red
pale blue, or vivid yellow.
Imitation jewel embroideries OF
white, cream and pale tinted satins
appear on the costiliest and most
elegant evening dresses.
The lovliest of all inexpensive
evening dresses is of white or cream
nuns yelling or cashmere, or
| Chudda cloth, with white more
accessories and ribbons and laces.
For house wear the skirts of
last years dresses can be advan-
tageously worn with silk or wool
Jerseys. A scarf of wool arranged
en- panler or apronlike around the
hips gives the required new, style
look. I'D
Medium>sized fans are carried

feathers.
A new Rssian riding boot which
has become very popular is made OF
black velvet, with silk plush tops.
They are cut to come about three
and half inches above the ankle
and are fastened with small round
buttons of French gold. Fl

Professor j. w. Shively, who calls
himself the 81 rue Messiab," arrived in
Washington on Thursday and took
rooms on Sixth street. ~.%
He at once addressed letters to Judge
Cox, Attorney Porter, and others Con
nected with the Guiteau trial, TO CON
vince them of the fallacy Of Guiteau's
alleged inspiration.
10 his letteI to Judge Cox be deman-
ded to be put upon the stand to confront
Guiteau and "to tell the Court where
and how to find this awful Deity OF the
Republican party"
The police were notified and this
morning arrested him. He will be sent
to the insane asylum to day. He Is ap
parently about sixty years old with
long white hair and heavy gray beard.
The trial seems to offer peculiar
attractions for "Cranks," and hardly q
day passes that the attention OF the
police is not drawn to some lunatic
whose appearance here may be directly
attributed to the trial.
