Washington, 5.-Colonel Angler, city
no.traas.er, has made az investigation TO
tr,ce money orders for Guitteau. Only
one order addressed to Gulttesu. In bis
n-oper name, could be found. That was
ienf from New York Lity, on the 2Sth
dev of last March by Charles A. Bryan,
and wss for 525. The superintendent Of
fine monev Office remembers Guittesu dis
tine.lv rs being in the Office several time:
of late AID thinks he must have received
other orders under different name
Last night postoffice officials were posi-
tive that not less than three or fouI
money orders had been received by Cunt,
tsau in tbeplst few weeks, but they could
not then make an investigation as 1t was
q holiday and the clerks having charge
Of he lecords were absent Further III
vestigst,on is making to ascertain II any
orders we're paid to Guittesu under any
Other name. A registered letter came
several weeks ago addressed to Char les
Guitteau, and it appears 1t was for Gut
tesu.
Guittesu is still secluded. There is NO
truth in the stories Of accompiiees. They
originated with neutrality-suspicious.. Ger
tsinly be acted aloro, never limiting al
his purpose. Detectives say he is crazy,
but people generally refuse to accept the
theory, and there is general demand to
hold him responsible There is talk OF
lynching Guttesu should the insanity
dodge be played.
A reporter tried to see the assassin al
the jail, bat the instructions of the TAILOR
positively forbade it. He has been very
quiet, evidently under preparation made
in advance. Ifhe is mad or crazy, say
the deputy, there is q deal Of method IL
his madness. He doesn't desire to tall
on the subject, and would not be per
mitted to converse with the keepers
even.
Several months ago the application Of
Guitteau for pension came before DR.
Hood, medical referee of the pension
bureau, for investigation and exanins'
lion. The document was fled by thu
prisoner, followed by several interviews
hsod came to the conclusion that he "a!
insane, and so Endorsed in writing.
Hartford, Conn.,, 4.-Guitteau figured
here during the Moody revival four year,
ago, sitting on the platform OF the Insti
TUE series of meetings here. He used Il
speak on the second coming of Christ
de suddenly quit his boarding house. A
writ was issued for his body, but he out
ran the sheriff, and escaped. A YEA
later be lectured in one Of the churches
Ills address being, "Reply to Ingersell'!
attack on the Bible"
New York, 4.-Guitteau was a shyste
lawyer, with an. Office in liquor store
mere twelve years ago, whose bushes
was to hunt up cases, and divide with tn
police court justices of notorious repute
IN his nefarious business he would mule
innocent persona Of fines, and allow vii
women and criminals to escape punish
ments BY payment Of compromis
money He worked the demi-mend de i
successful way.
