EMORY A. sroRRs AND SENATOR DAVID DAVIS As
wITNEssEs-THE EXPERT TESTIMONY TO BE
OFFERED on M0NDAY--PRRsIDENT ARTHUR TO
BE REQUESTED TO TAKE THE STAND.
Among the witnesses examined Yesterday in
the Guiteau trial were Emory A. Storre, Of
Chicago, and Senator David Davis, of Illinois.
Ii the defence expected to gain some impor-'
tant points by these witnesses they were dis
appointed. Not only did Mr.. Storrs refuse to
express any opinion as to the sanity or in
sanity of the murderer, but he very plainly
stated that he had never had any reason TO-
suspect on the part of the prisoner lack Of
the capacity to distinguish between right and
wrong. Senator Davis was interTogated at
some length by Mr. Scoville as to the Conk-
ling controversy in particular and the cOndi-,
ton of American politics in general. His
answers at times called out the suppressed
laughter of the spectators The experts in in ;
sanity will, it is thought, begin to give their
testimony tomorrow. Mr.. Scoville will call
on the President to-day and ask him-though
he will not press the request-to appear as a
witness,
