WASHINGTON, D. C., July An effort was
made to secure an interview With the prisoner
at the District Jail, but, Us was to be expected,
without SUCCESS. From the Chief of Police It
WAS learned that Col. Corkhiii, the United States
District~Auorney, had issued an order which
was sent to the jail to allow no one to interview
or have any communication whatever with tho
prisoner. Detective Voss, who ,xas In charge Of
the prisoner, stated that On the way down to the
Jail they met an attache OF the White House
who had
NOT YET HEARD OF THE ASSASSINATION.
The carriage was stopped and Dets sesve Voss
asked Smith If he had heard that The President
had been shot. He treAted the matter as joke,
and Was informed that it was unfortunately too
true, and that the man With the officers was tho
Guiteuu. Why he has been here every day since
the 4th Of Narch when the President was here.
He was there all day yesterday. and WAS as mad
On the arrival Of Gulteau ut the jail tho party
WAS met BY Gen. John S. CEocker, the Warden,
to whom

with the commitment, and this was accompanied
by n letter from Col. George 3. Corkhiil, United
States District Attorney, to the Warden direct
ing that he should allow no person whatever to

talking to him. On entering. Gen. Crock s

CRAZY WITH LOVE.


Among other interesting incidents whicG
marked Guiteau's career in Chicago WINS ono
wherein he figured as rejected and supremely
ridiculous lover, the fairone of whom he became
euamored, but who refused to receive his atteu-
tons, being charming young lady OF this city,
whose fnther Is one Of its wealthy and highly-re-
spected physicians. Guiteau met the young lady
at North Lake. Wis, about four years ago, at q
time when he was stopping with the family OF
his brother-in-law, Mr. Scovilie, who owned a
farm or summer residence near Moth Lake.
Guitcau, after meeting the lady by chancef
at once left the house OF his relative and secured
an apartment In tho same house whct6
the object of his suddenly acquired passion Was
stopping with her parents. She stated after
ward that Guiteau's appearance and mannerH
impressed her aud her parents SO very uufayor-
ably that they at once decided not to receive
hin as visitor. But the fellow was remarka-
bly, persistent and really annoying in his en-
deayors to force himself upon the young 1ady's
society.
Beng positively denied that privilege, he re.
sorted to the plan OF writing her the
most amatory epIsties, the iupassloned tone
OF which Was relieved occasionally BY q:
short dissertation On religious subtects-
He followed the young lady and
her family to Chicago, and for months continued
to annoy them By his oft-repeatcd efforts to se-
cure admission to the house, still continuing.
too, the one-silei correspondence with It's vlo~
lent expressions OF love. Finally, one day ha
called at the gentleman's house and demanded
that he be allowed to enter. Making up biz
mind that he would put an end to the nuisance
the gentleman invited Guiteau to one OF thd
upper apartments, II bedroom, and then locked
him In. His next step WAS to SUMMON two
policemen to whom he proposed to turn tho
intruder over. But while the officers were being
summoned Gufteau made preparations to let
himself out Of the window BY means Of q ropa
which he Ind improvised from the hedclothes 1n
the room. Just Us he was about to beg1n hi&
descent, however, the officers appeared, and no
sooner did Guiteau see the door open than hd
made a rush toward 1t, and, botinE past the
officers, ran downstairs and managed to effect
an escape. a few nights later he WIS seen BY a
