The ''insanity dodge" nj it is popular
ly termed, will be resorted to in Gut
teau's case for a defense. 1t is the only
defense that seems to be open, and it is
indeed, a good one. But its very ef-
fectiveness in this case is weakened by
the fact that the victim Of the murder
was the president of the United States.
If 1t were otherwise, we doubt not that
the defendant would be acquitted.
1t must be borne in, mind that when
the defense in u murder trial is insan-
ity, IL is successful when clearly prov
ed. This is so because 1t is one of the
hrst principles of criminal law that
there can be no crime without intent;
intent is the result of q determination
Of the mind; an insane person has nc
mind, and therefore cannot commit
crime. Such a person is merely the
blind tool of a diseased brain, and to
punish him for acts done when the
mind Is ruined and the rudder Of Gen.
science gone, is only to inflict cruelty
upon an irresponsible and helpless,
though animated, form Of clay. Hence
great care is ever taken not to infract
the requirements Of humanity by an
act that were possibly more cruel than
the irrational deed of "a mind diseas-
cdr
But is Guiteau really insane? With.
out closely investigating the question,
one would hastily say, yes. His whole
life is full of insufferable egotism and
disordered responsibility; he imagined
himself the greatest stump orator in the
country. and haunted partisan head.
quarters to have his frothy fustian
printed and distributed by the million;
he howled for temperance and "looked
upon the wine when 1t was red," and
when the wine was not to be had, Jer-
sey tanglefoot was good enough; he
pounded pulpits and flayed affairs at re-
ligious reyivaIs and at the same lived
in gross RIGHTEOUSNESS; he rented law
Offices and purchased law libraries, be-
You'd number, always IN credit, and he
would have half a dozen offices and as
many libraries at his disposal at q time
in city; he roared himself hoarse in
the last campaign for Garfield & Ar
thur; he besieged congressman, sen
ators, cabinet officers and the president,
for positions which he had neither the
ability nor the standing to fulfill; he
made, himself unnecessarily obnoxious to
all whom he repeatedly bored, and
seemed impervious to insult; and then
he conceived the plan of assassinating
the president of the United States, not
because he desired to kill James A.
Garfield, as such, but because he was
the president. His idea was and is
that the republican party would be har-
monizsd, with Garfield out Of the way,
and he would become blessed as, bene-
factor to the republic. To sum up these
things, one would pronounce Guiteau
insane.
But there are other points connected
with the case which tend to disprove
the insanity dodge. 1t will be remem
bered that he has confessed that he had
al intention to murder the president o
week before he fired the fatal shot, but
was dissuaded becaused he pitied Mrs.
Garfield. who had just recovered from
an illness and leaned SO affectionately
upon the arm Of her husband, as they
passed through the fatal depot. Now

Mr.. Parneil-The charge is false. /

Hence, It is somewhat remarkable that
according to the warrants these offences
charged against me must have been
committed in Dublin, and must have
been contained in the speeches delivered
at the weekly meetings Of the League.
The speeches were by far the most mod
crate of any have delivered since the
commencement Of the movement. The
programme on which government is pro-
ceeding seems to be this, that any advice
or Recommendation given by me or other
members of the movement to the tenant
farmers is intimidation. In other words,
the way in which they are now putting
the coercion act in force is q most Abso-
lutte abrogation of the right Of freedom Of
speech, discussion end meeting which
ever obtained in any country. In taking
this course the government has practic-
ally rendered it impossible for the far
mers either to test, or with ssfty, use the
land act. I have always been Of those
who believed it possible to use the act in
such a way as to secure substantial bene-

party, who desired to reject the act en-
tirely at the recent convention, but was
fray convinced that the act could only
be used safely in organized and system-
attic fashion. and that If the farmers were
left without organization or assistance in
advance, the result would be IS in the
case Of the act of 20, disappointment.
London, N.-Several more arrests un-
der the coercion act were made in Ire
land to-day, including Miss Hobnett, Of
BallYdeheb, for psrsisting in exhibiting
q copy OF the "no rent" manifesto in
window Of her house.
DR. Kenny, member Of the executive
of the Land League, the medical attend
ant OF several imprisoned subjects, was
arrested to-day, and conveyed to Kill

Dublin, 4.-Since the proclamation
against the Leagne accounts from various
parts Of the country have been sstisfac-
tory. There has bsen no distur bance of
business, and people are much relieved.

will be removed from KilmAinham to
Belfast or Rifford, jail, and Kettle,
Monaghan, Dillon, O'Kelly, Brennan
and-if his eyesight permits-Boynton,
will be removed to other prisons. but it is
in possible to remove Sexton and others
because of their health.
