IL Meets This horning and Ad.
jeurns cut OF Respect to the Dead
President.
Court opened this morning at 10
O'Clock, Chief Justice Conegys and
judges Houston and Wales on the
bench.
Immediately after the opening, Attor-
ney General Gray arose and addressing
the Court, said that the intelligence had
been flashed over the wires that james
A. Garfield, Presidsnt Of the United
States was dead. The very sad intelli-
gence had caused feeling OF profound
serrow 10 the hearts Of the people Of this
nation. Although people might differ 10
politics, all such differences had been
laid aside, ard the people with one &C.
cord bowed their heads In sorrow ct the
awful death that had overtaken the To-
mented Chief Magistrate Of these United
States. In respect to the memory Of the
martyreJ death, be would move that the
Court aojourn unlil 10 morrow morning
at 10 o'clock.
The Chief Justice said: Mr.. Attorney
General and gentlemen Of the bar: This
Court has heard with profound sorrow
VI buo tuv ucesu VI AEosiNcbs Sstaco a.
Garfield. The intelligence Of his death
has caused gloom to be cast over this
country almost never known before.
There 10 no doubt that the Pres
ident enjoyed the confidence Of
The whole people, and although We may
differ in our political opinions, We must
acknowledge the great craftsmanship Of
the departed President. Should be have
been spared to the nation he would, no
doubt, have administered the duties Of
his ofiice faithfully, a. we can but &C.
knowledge that he had the ability and
frmness to do 90.
It is an awful consequence that man
OF that kind, who enjoyed the confidence
Of millions Of people, should be shot
down BY the hand Of miserable assas-
sin. Owing to the deep selemnity that
now pervades the country, We do not
think that 1t would be proper to transact
any business, bat give ourselves up TO
the consideration Of the great WOO that
we have sustained IS patton.
Although II will be somewhat OF an
effort for us TO calmly consider the man
ner In which this great and good man
came to his death, we must give our
selves up co the rulings OF the great
power, 70 whose behests we look to. We
shall direct that this court be adjourned
as tribute TO his great Virtue as . man
and Q citizen.
Court thereupcn adjourned until 10
O'Clock tomorrow morning.
