This exhausted the ranti, and on motion
OF the District Attorney the Court ordered
the placing of one hundred moro names in
the box to be drawn for the purpose of sum-
moning additional talcsmcn from which to
complete the jury. All
During the Drawing OF Jurors
Guitcau had sat an interested observer, adj
vising his counsel ut different times laugh
ing ut some witty response made by jury
man, or convcrsing with his BROTHER or sis
ter. When the order for additional talesmen
was issued, and while the extra deputy
bailils were being sworn in by the
Court,

lie was quoted finally, the Jhrymen were
instructed not to converse with outsiders or
read the newspapers, and after deciding to
take n recess daily ut noon for half an
hour, and TO adjourn each day ut 3 o'clock,
the court at 1:10 o'clock adjourned.
For several minutes after the ad oun-
mcnt, Guitcau his counsel and sister and
brother stood convcrsing in u group,
Guitcau Talking ExcitcdIy.
Mrs. Scovllc attempted to quiet him, but
he roughly thrust her aside and pounded
away on the table, insisting that his state
ment, which he had prepared and desired
TO deliver as speech tomorrow morning
should be placed in the hands of members
of the press.
One reporter had already secured it, hut
it had been recalled by Mr. Scoville, and
Guiteau being so persistent, the statement
was returned to the, reporter. 1t will be
found in another column of The CRITIC
to-day. Guteau's guards, when this ex-
citoment was over, escorted him to the
witness room upstairs He was accompa-
MED thence by his sister and brother and
counsel What occurred in the room is not

and finally declared he would insist upon
being allowed to assist in conducting his
own case. The consultation lasted three
quarters of an hour. In the meantime n
great crowd had collected about the City
Hall park on the east 'front.' and another
along Louisiana avenue, in anticipation of
the return of Guiteau to Jail.
Rumors that he had already been taken
down in close carriage prevailed for a
time, but this was dispelled by the fact that
thirty or forty policemen still fingered
around the entrances. The crowd was anX-
ious and curious, but not dsorderly, and it
was evident that Guiteau conld have passed
through them without having hair in his
head injured
Inside the cast corridor of the City Hall,
along which Guiteau was to pass when
leaving the building, was thronged, and
posse of police guarded the way.
Taken Back 10 Jail.
At 2:15 o'clock, escorted by two policemen,
Guiteau, carrying bundle and pair of
new shoes in his shackcled hands,
his SLOUGH hat drawn down over his
eyes, and accompanied by eight officers,
Detective McElfrcsh and Deputy Marshal
Williams, who surrounded him. He

and shook rs he was hurried along out of
the building and through the crowd
which made passageway for him to the
prison van, which stood with its door open
to receive him at the curbstone.
As he passed along the crowd pressed
vaguely forward to catch a glimpse of him,
and various comments passed among them
by group of colorcd women, who. eX-
claimed "Fore God, is dat him; is dat de
thing wot shot the President. Lordy, desc
hyar men kin break him in two if dey
wants to-" But no demonstration was
made.

were escorted to the iury-roOm after
Gutcaus departure and locked in, and
forbidden strictly to communicate with any
zone outside.
