Stanton Wanting Greeley Arrested.


The following curious dispatches, never be
fore printed, were sent by Mr.. Stanton to the
Hon. Edwards Pierrepont about month af-
ter the assassination of Mr.. Lincoln. They
are interesting as evidence of very different
phase of the excitsment in Washington at
that time from any which has been caused by
the attempt on the life of President Garfield:
WAR DEPARTMENT, May 12, 1885, 1905 p.
m.-To the Hon. Edwards Pierrepont, New
York: have written tonight to retain you
and Cutting and Brady, or anyone else you
may desire to have associated with you, to
prosecute Horace Greedy and the owners of
the Tribune for Greeley's persistent efforts,
the last four weeks, to incite assassins to
finish their work of numbering me. Please
give the matter your immediate attention on
receiving the letter, and secure copies of all
the Tri5unes printed since the night of the
Presidents murder, aud get the names of the
owners Ipropose to prosecute criminally
and also by civil suit, for l shall not allow
them to have me murdered and escape respon-
sibility without a struggle for life on my part.
EDWARD NJ. STANTON.
WAR DEPARTMENT, May $3.50 o. m.-
The Hon. Edwards Pierrepont and the Hon.
f. H. Cutting, New York: / have proof of
express personal malice against me by Greeley,
and believe that can establish combination
between him and others which may end in ac-
complishing my death, as it did against Mr.
Lincoln and Mr.. Seward. This is my reason
for distinguishing his case from others of
general vituperatlon.
EDWIN M. ST ANTON.
The second telegram was sent in reply to
one which contained an intimation that It
might be indiscreet to make such an arrest as
the one suggested by Mr.. Stanton.

Guifean's Prison Life.

WASHINGTON, July 29.-Guiteau's time
passes very much as with any prisoner in the
jail He is kept by himself, but in no sense,
is he in solitary confinement. He is able to
converse with the other prisoners, and talks
with the guard on all matters not relating to
the President. He has not seen any newspaper,
but, within day or two, has read the follow
ipg books: ''From the Clouds to the Noun
taips, =" by Jules Verne; "How She Came Into
Her Kingdom" and "Nine Years Among the
Convcts, or Prison "reminiscences, by E.
Smith. Although he claims to be a theologian
and pious man, he has not yet been observed
20 have spent any time in devotion. He has
not asked for a lawyer, and has indicated that
he is lawyer enough to manage his own case.
He has not manifested a single trace of in
sanity IN any form, and no person connected
with llie Jail believes he is in the slightest de-
gree insane.
Gen Crocker, warden of the jail, said, speak
ing of Guiteau: "There has been no event in
his life during the past week that is worthy
of mention. He eats, sleeps, and wakes up
see him from the day he was brought here.
No one has manifested any friendly interest in
him. He does not seem to have any friends.
His brother in-law was here, but he did hot
appear to take any special interest in him.
There was no animosity shown, however If
his mother, or brother, or any of his friends
come to see him, | would let them see him,
just as | would do in the case of any other
prisoner. The only people who have been
here to sec him are those who came out
of mere curiosity. Guiteau
is as quiet as any other prisoner He seems
to have made up his mind to patiently await
the result. He has not asked for a lawyer. He
he wanted a lawyer. He said no, not at pres
ent He claims to be lawyer himself. He
knows enough not to talk. He is sane enough
not to talk. He hasn't expressed desire to
talk with any one except Bailey, the stenogra-
pher, who has been taking his statement. He
has sometimes asked to have him come There
is no such thing Us solitary confinement In
this jail. Guiteau can hear the other prison
ers talk, and can talk with them. The guards
talk with him on subjects connected with
his prison life, but not about the President.
Nobody here wants to talk with him about the
crime. do not think he has any knowledge
of The Presidents condition. He reads great
deal. He has no newspapers. He reads most
ly the bible and serious works. There is moth
ing peculiar about him. No, take no stock
In his insanity There has been nothing in his
actions here to indicate it any more than in
the condition of other criminals | don't
think he is man of strong moral convic-
toSs. Ger. Crocker said Guiteau reads the
constitution of the United States and the bible
more than any other books belonging to the
Jail library. No letters come to the Jail for
Guiteau.

CARL sCHURZ.

LONDON, July 29.-The Beflin correspond.
ent of the Times says it is creditably rumored
that Carl Schurz will succeed White as the
American minister TO Germany. It would
doubtless be splendid triumph for the man
who fled from Berlin as revolutionist more
than thirty years ago, to return as the minister
from the great republic of the west, but it Is
doubtful whether such transformation scene
would give much satisfaction at court.
DEMONSTRATIONS AGAINST THE JEWS.

LAND BILL PASSED. O.
Lord Randolph Churchill, in an extravagant
speech to-day, moved his resolution,
on the third reading of the land
bill, that the bill being the result of revolu-
tionary agitation encourages reputation of
contracts, is opposed to individual liberty, is
calculated to diminish the security of
property, and prosperity in Irelaud,
and to endanger her union with Great Britain.
Gladstone followed ,ridiculing Lord Churchill,
and powerfully justifying the bill. He said it
would not be becoming i'll him to eulogize the
measure, but the attacks against it were such
as did not make necessary its defense Glib
son, conservative, replied to Gladstone, and af-
ter William Shaw, home ruler, had paid a
high tribute to Gladstone, a desultory discus.
sion was continued by Lord Elcho, Warton and
other extremists, amid the evident lmpatience
of the house, the only { effect being
to prevent third reading of the bill
at the morning sitting. The house finally
suspended its sitting until tonight, and the
sitting of the lords was suspended until II,
in the hope of taking the first reading of the
bill tonight.
When the house reassembled the bill was
read third time and passed, 900 to II, the
ministry being exclusively composed of con-
conservatives. Parnell abstained from voting.
In the house of lords tonight the bill was
read the first time and the second reading
fixed for Monday next.

Evidence Pointing to Their Manufacture
at Peoria, Ill
PEORIA, July 29.-The report that the infer
nal machines were made here creates great ex-
citement and is generally believed. P. w.
Crow, who was supposed to be implicated in
their manufacture, denies it, but he says that
he knows that they were made at O'Rourke's Is
foundry on South Washington street. They
were of iron and zinc, in sections. The ma
ehinery and dynamite were supplied in New
York.

BLOOD POISONING.

WAsHINGToN, July 29.-Dr. Bliss says:
he President has never at any period had a
symptom of py8mia, and the time during
which that complication is likely TO occur is
nn~ nearly past. Pyamia generally manifests
leeif before the end of the fourth week, if at
III. We have no especial reason to apprehend
in inis case, and there has certainly been 10
1t h.. III III of it as yet. DR.. Bliss was then
"a. -tIpned with regard to the results of Prof
bells recent experiments with the induction
f,inncr, and their bearing upon the Presi-
.t,ii < case. He said he understood that the
rSi',imen:s had been reasonably successful,
~, that Prof. Bell had been able TO locate the
l,lH embedded in the flesh at depth of
rh',,t two inches. He hoped that
ihr method would prove to be
practicable and valuable, but no application
uf It to the Presidents case would be made al
present. Ii the ball should become q source
of disturbance and danger-a contingency
which he did not apprehend-it might be
worth while, even in the Presidents present
condition, to try the induction balance as a
means of definitely locating it, but as long as
the ball gives no trouble, its exact location is
rot matter of vital Importance 1t can be
t'ntpd at later day, when the President shall
have grown better and stronger. Regarding
IN Presidents physical strength, DR.. Bliss
srd "He is, of course, weak but not so
wax as seems to be generally supposed. He
moves his arms and legs pretty freely, can
help himself in turning over, and, by claspiDg
b. hands around the neck of one of his at
tendants, he can support part of his weight
while being lifted.
