GuIrEAU INDICTED IN ELEVEN MISuTELY
DRAWN COUNTS.

GuIrEAU INDICTED IN ELEVEN NISuTELY
DRAWN COUNTS.
WASHINGTON. October 9.-The indict.
ment against Charles j. Guiteau for the
murder of James A. Garfield, late Pres
ident of the United States, was pre-
sented to the grand jury yesterday
morning. The indictment embraces
eleven counts and is drawn with great
minuteness. Each count repeats the
charge that Guiteau, felonIously, wilful.
ly and of his malice aforethought, did
kill and murder against the form Of the
statute in such case made and prOvid-
ed and against the peace and govern
ment Of the United States. The varia-
tions are regarding the time and place
OF death and the courts jurisdiction,
and are drawn so as to cover every pos
sible loophole through which the pris.
oner might escape. For instance, the
only variation in the fifth count is
change in the order of mention OF the
places in which death IS said TO have
occurred, the county OF Washington
and District OF Columbia being put hrst.
The sixth count recites that the offence
charged was committed in the Balti.
more and Potomac railroad depot, IN
the city of Washington, which building
stands and at the time stood on the
ground belonging to and under the ex.
elusive Jurisdiction of the United
States. The ninth count is varied by
the introduction of the recital that the
district in which the offence charged
was committed constitutes a judicial
circuit of the United States, and that
the county of Monmouth and State OF
New Jersey, where the said James A.
Garfield died, form part of judicial
circuit of the United States consisting
OF the District oil Columbia. In all
other respects this count Is like the
third.
At l2:45 the grand jury entered the
Criminal Court room and presented the
indictment against Guitesu indorsed "a
true bilI' and signed by Caleb Church
man, foreman.

WASHINGTON, October 6.-When the
management of the Government Print.
ing Office Is looked into, il IL ever IL,
there will be some Developments by the
side of which sthe corruption in the
Treasury Department will be nowhere.
Ii will be found that one Childs, an ir'
responsible clerk, has had full swing OF
an office running over thousand EN-.
ployes; that this man has controlled
contracts and manipulated bids at his
own pleasure, and that Mr.. Deirees
has admitted himself powerless to inter
fere. It will be found that this power.
zessness began about the time that
$4,000 were taken from the office safe
in broad daylight. which amount was
repaid by Congress and the loss never
covered. There were several of the De
frees family OF fast young men about
the office at the time, but the safe.rob.
bers were never discovered, 1t will be
found that Childs kept one of How.
gates charmers on his Office rolls, al.
though her character was well known
to him and to every woman in the
printing office. Ii will be found that
Defrees has not rendered two months
service a year, but has quietly resided
at Berkeley Springs, where the men in
his employ were compelled to, at their
own expense and loss Of wages, to con.
suit him, and whence they were invari
ably turned back to Childs. This fellow
worked the office on double time one
week and the next furloughed half the
force for want of appropriations and
otherwise showed his gross incapacity,
while Defrees dare not remove him.

Paris, Sept. 30.-At the sitting of the
electric congress the question was
raised in regard to the rights Of the pro-
perty in submarine cables. At present
no government has any jurisdiction be-
yond three miles from the coast, and
the cutting Of cables beyond that dis
tance is not criminal offence. The
suggestion of the French ministers Of
posts and telegraphs that representa-
tions on the subject be made to the diff
ferent government was agreed to.

was buried in Ligonier valley last July
1t was thought by many that as he had
not been exactly straight in all things,
that he possibly was not dead at all.
Accordingly the grave was visited and
the remains exhumed. The widow
learned of it and went at once to the
place and found about sixty persons on
the ground, including Drs. McColly
and Miller, Of Ligonier borough. Nc
one could show authority for such a
proceeding. The widow then went to
Greensburg to commence legal pro-
ceedings against all concerned.

was said this morning on Trustworthy
authority, that the conference has been
carried on with great care, a steno-
grapher being present most of the time
to make full and complete reports. 1t
is now generally believed that the re-
suit OF the conference will have an
early and important bearing on affairs
at Washington. Those who have been
permitted to hear most from the inner
walls of Conkling's residence during
the last few days, express themselves
with great confidence respecting the ex-
senator's immediate future. 1t is also
intimated to-day by those near to the
ex-senator that he does not care to have
a seat in the convention.

THE STAR ROUTE,
The Prosecution to be Pushed vigor.
ously Along.
Report That Several Parties Have
Turned States Evidence.

Washington, Sept. 30.-The Star
route ring is demoralized. They feel
that the lightning is about to strike
them, but do not know who or where it
will hit. Postmaster General James
and Mac acveagh have evidence enough,
they are satisfied, to convict the ring,
and there is to be no delay in the prose-
cution. This morning a conference
was held at the Arlington hotel be-
tween James, Mac Veagh, George Bliss,
B.H. Brewster and others who represent
the prosecution. Bliss submitted the
indictments which he had carefully
drawn against Bradley, Dorsey. Nc
Grew, ex-Chief Clerk French, Sauls-
bury, Gllmer and other Star route con-
tractors and benefciaries Of the ring.
Bliss stated that he would pledge his
professional reputation upon the con-
viction. James and MacVeagh approved
the action of Bliss and these indict-
ments will be placed Immediately in
Dist. Atty. Corkhill's hand for present
ment to the grand jury. James, Mac
Veagh and other officials engaged in
the prosecution have no confidence
whatever In Corkhill. and they make
no secret of the fact. They do not
charge that Corkhill has been influenced
by any money consideration to favor the
Star route ring. but they believe that
social and personal relations, to say the
least, SO influence him. All the officials
concerned in the prosecution maintain
that Corkhill has obstructed their pro-
gress from the first and therefore was
determined to prepare all the papers Of
presentment fully and keep them in his
hands so that all he will have to do will
be to submit them to the grand jury.
This is why Bliss drew up the papers.
and although Bliss has some pressing
business in New York he has remained
here at the request of the postmaster
and attorney generals to watch the
presentment of these cases.
One of the highest officials Of the
postoffice department said that in the
past thirty-six hours several persons
connected with the ring have surrend-
cred and turned states evidence. 1t is
pretty well understood that Walsh,
formerly of New Orleans, who o few
months ago brought several suits
against Brady for the recovery Of
money, is one Of them. The govern
ment will conclusively prove the con-
spiracy, and unless some Of the accused
parties jump the country they will pro-
badly be in tight place before long.
The action of the president in remov-
moving Star, postmaster at Deadwood,
was the revelation to the ring. The
Star route ring did not know that any
one had made written confession de-
failing the fraudulent operations Of the
ring in the northwest. For some
months past one Of the most efficient
inspectors of the postoff1ce department
has been secretly investigating the
management of the Deadwood post
office, and when he confronted the post
master with his proofs the latter con-
fessed.
