remarked that the court would clear Guteau. The

TRIAL NOTES.
Some people who have been watching Guiteau's
conduct during the trial think he shows fnconss-
tency in declaring himself San agent OF the Deity'
and then being so fearful OF danger from the
crowd. The agent OF the Deity ought not to fear
anything OF that sort
one OF the lawyers for the prosecution speaking
about GuiteauS actions in court, said TO a STAR
reporter: Il expect we will have these scenes all
the time II the court, however, makes show OF
putting its threat OF removing the prisoner into
execution, he VIII quiet down. He would not be
outside OF the court room for the world"
The examination OF Police Officer kearney was.
by all Odds the event OF the morning. He told his
story In an oi-hand way. interlarded with quaint
observations that caused great amusement. He
received the emphatic endorsement OF Guteau as
to the truth OF his side OF the story concerning the
arrest OF the assassin.
