There is a good deal more in this

the perpetrators Of the outrage have
never been brought to justice. 1t has

ultimately successful. Ono notable
fact is that the teacher who was SUI

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-TThe even
ing paperS contained a story to the
effect that at a recent meeting Of the
cabinet the president stated that
the meeting had been called to con-
slider Guiteau's case, and that he
would consider it a disgrace for the
government to be NAprepared, and
to have to ask for q continuance
on that ground. Attorney General
Mac VeaRh is said to have been pres
ent, but made no sign. The presi
dent asked him dlraolly if he was
ready to proceed with the case but
vas informed by that gentleman
that he considered it no part of his
business TO give attention to crimi-
nal prosecutions. The preeidet re-
piled that this was "a great state
trial, and tkat he (MacVeagh) was
looked to by the whole country to
sse that it was properly and ef.
hciently conducted. MacVeagh said
in reply that no law or custom re-
qui.ed him to appear'in such case,
quoting Judge Jersmiah Black as
having told him so. The president
accused MacVoagh of ignorance Of
the law, and told him if he declined
to act he would appoint able coun-
sci to conduct the case, rsmarking
that MasVeagh's legal knowledge
would be improved by reading the
statutes Of the United States, which
define Ais duties.
