1NDEsCE1BABLE SCENES.
LONG BRANCH, Sept 19.-The scenes around
the West End and Elberon, when the news Of
the presidents death were received, are inde-
scribable. The news was first received from
the telegraph operators at Elberon. The West
srn Union company sent it's agent through the
corridors of tho West End, notifying
everybody he met A dash was made by
the people for carriages, and i'll
moment Ocean avenue was crowded with We
hicles going at the top OF their speed for the
Elberon. The news was bawled from the car
risges to the few people on the streets, and the
procession Of carriages was joined by q
crowd Of breathless pedestrians, running
down tho streets as fast as their legs
could carry them. The members Of the
cabinet were sitting on the porch Of the West
End, when Mr. James, assistant superinten-
dent Of the railway mail service, rushed up
and informed them that the president was
dead. Almost at the same time they received
Mr. MacVeagh's message calling them to the
Elberou. Carriages were summoned and they
were driven to their sad destination at break
neck speed. Attorney General Macveagh m ct
them on tho piazza. Tears were flowing from
Mr.. James eyes. Mr.. Kirkwood was pale
and nervous. He seemed almost prostrated BY
the sad news Mr.. Hunt was wee ping Secre-
tary Window walked with bowed head and
seemed crushed by the dread intelligence.
None OF them said word to the crowds Of
people that instantly surrounded them At .
signal from Mr.. Mcyeagh they stepped OF the
porch into the darkness and walked to the cot
tsge; but Mr.. Macveagh gave the password
and they were allowed to enter
POST MoRTEM ExAMrNT1oN
Of the president is to be made tomorrow. The
sheriff Of Monmouth county will demand that
Guiteau to be tried in Monmouth county, where
his victim died. The coroner Of this county.
who has been notified Of tho death Of
the president, came here prepared
to make the request on tho body,
as tho president died within the Jurisdiction
Of the coroner. He was willing to accept the
post mortem OF the physicians, but he insisted
that as death had occurred within his jurisdic-
ton, he felt that he must make an independent
Investigation. It will be made tomorrow
morning, and based upon the post norton
made by Dr. Bliss, lie will make such =
report that the governor Of New Jersey will
demand the surrender of Guiteau for trial in
this county. 1t is doubtful, if the demand Of
the governor is complied with, il Guiteau will
Hsach here alive. It is known that an organi-
=stion in Washington exists, sworn to have
Guiteau's life if the president dies; and it he
% removed to this county the assassin may
suHer death much quicker than he anticipates
Freehold is the county seat Of Monmouth, and
there the assassin will be tried.
