WARRINGTON, Nov. 17.-When the
court met this morning Guiteau secured
the flosr and protested against Robinson
taking any part in the defense. He said
he would manage his own case; he would
net trust Robinson with anything, as he
had no braius. He wished the court to
understand him on this point, and if
counsel were forced upon hlm he would
make a noise about it to the country. He
represented the deity in this ase, and
wished the court to understand it. Con-
tinuing, he said to or three blunderbuss
lawyers would lose the case for him, and
he did not propose. to submit to anything
of the kind The court Informed the
prisoner that if he did not remain quiet
he would be removed from the room.

Many were moved to tears, and Mrs. Sco-
vile, sister Of Guiteau, wept bitterly.

"A Rich Prisoner.


The oldest and doubtless the richest
convict in the the OHIO penitentiary. is
Horace Brooks, aged "a, whose long i'm.
prisonment is likely to be soon termin-
ated by large rose cancer, which has
appeared on his forehead. He was re-
ceived at the penitentiary November 10,
1850, under life sentence for murder in
the second degree, and has therefore been
in prison thirty-one years. He owned q
farm IN the suburbs Of Cleveland through
which railroad passed; the cars ran
over and killed some sheep, and to avenge
this injury Brooks obstructed the track,
threw off a train and killed five persons.
He was indicted for murder by the grand
jury of Cuyahoga county, tried in the
courts of that county and sentenced to the
penitentiary for life. At the time of his
convection he was a wealthy man, and
the property he then owned has become
extremely valuable, having since become
part of the city Of Cleveland.

Blaine's Testimony.

WARRINGTON, Nov <17.-Mr. Blaine,
after giving his name and stating that he
was at present secretary Of state, and that
he was acquainted with James A. Gar
field from 1868 till the hour of his death,
answered al follows the questions of the
counsel:
QUESTIONABLE you acquainted with the
prisoner at the bar? Have you ever seen him
before?
Answer saw him occasionally during the
months, of March, April and May; not so
frequently in May.
Q.-Were you in company with the presi-
dent at the time of the shooting2
Al was by bis side.
Q.-Wil you narrate to the jury an account
of the proceedings, in your own manner, SO
they will obtain full narrative of the cir
cumstances as they are familiar to you?
Al wish to take directions as to what
point to begin the narrative.
Q.-You met the president by appointment
on the morning of the assassination?
A.--Yes, sir; on the night of July 1, l was
engaged with the president until nearly mid
night on public business. On parting he
suggested had better call and see him in the
morning before he left, because there might
be some matters to which he desired to call
my attention. Iwent to the White House in
the morning, reaching there at 8, not later
than three minutes past. was detained
some little time in conference with the presi-
dent in the cabinet 70 ON and library, and
then started with him for the depot, riding in

The Indians.

The secretary of the interior, in his re-
port, says: "There are now in the states
and territories west Of the Mississippi
river 102 reservations, great and small, on
which there are located, ln~round num-
bers, 224. 1000 Indians. If all Indians west
of the Mississippi river were gathered
upon four or five reservations, our In
dian affairs could be managed with
greater economy to the government and
greater benefit to the Indians. recon-
mend that congress be asked to create
of three or four citizens to
visit, during the next year, the reserva-
tions west OF the Mississippi river for the
purpose Of recommending to congress, if
they shall deem it wise, the concentration
of the Indians on four or five reservations
to be selected in different parts of the
west, on which the different tribes shall
be located, and if this shall not in the
judgment of the commission, be wise,
then to recommend the concentration of
existing small agencies when that can be
done, and reduction of the
area of others to dimensions proportion
ate to the number of Indians now located
thereon.
