New York, Nov. GA Washington
dispatch to the World says: 1t is said
on behalf Of Judge Cox that the license
he allows Guiteau is attributed to two
motives: One to belief in Guiteau's
insanity, the other to determination
that the trial shall be in every respect
such, that whatever the result, neither
the prisoner nor his friends shall ever
have ground for complaint Of unfair
ness. Rather than leave loophole for
such complaint, he chooses to allow the
customs of the court TO be daily out
ragged, and to disregard his duty both
to the prosecution and to himself.
Whatever this explanation may be
worth it is but plausible reason for
Ibis liberation of Guiteau's impudent
statement with which to-day's pro-
ceediggs opened, and for bis subsequent
unruly behavior up to recess, consist
| ing Of violent and indecent interrupt
tions OF witnesses and repeated contempt
for the court, by keeping up his gabble
after he had been ordered to stop. His
temper, modified under the influence Of
hot lunch, this afternoon he said
| less and was good natured.

says the United States government will
enter a remonstrance against the policy
pursued by Chill toward Peru. and in
innate in strong terms that the govern

Peruvian government Invested Of al
its power as a natien, and that the time
has come for Chilli to cease its policy of
humilizting Peru and forcing her into
position where it cannot recover. 1t
is believed that an opinion will also be
expected of our government as regards
the terms exacted Of Peru. as both op-
pressive and unjust, and confidently
expected for some moderation in the
policy now pursued by Chill towards
her conquered foe.

ters Fitzpatrick and Hurlbut, and the
unfortunate quarrel in which they have
become engaged. 1t is learned that sup
Elementary letters Of instruction have
