continued, fercely struggling with the
deputy marshals, who were trying to
suppress him.

eff you say you will not give it out"
began Scoville inquiringy. 'I repre-
sent the person here" was the loud re-
ply of the prisoner.
Scoville was evidently getting disgust
ed with the prisoners conduct and it
was in tones of annoyance that he said
to the court 'I do not propose to be
interrupted here by the prisoner every
day, nor spend an hour or two at the
Jail every day to prevent the prisoner
giving out communications"
Struggling with the deputy marshals
Guiteau exclaimed wildly, addressing
his remarks to Scoville, which were ut

cried the prisoner, addressing the
court. "If you expel me from the
court room, the court in blanc will re-
verse you. If the court puts me out
you confounded FOOLS" he cried,
turning and struggling with the deputy
marshals who were pressing him into
his seat from which he had half risen.
"The court will understand that he will
be reversed in court in banc." "Mind
your business; you amt got no sense"
he said, again turning upon the depu.
ties, with whom he continued to argue
violently for several moments.
The court-"On several occasions in
courts of the United States the prison
er has been, on account of disorderly
conduct, removed from the court and
the case continued in his absence. II
was done in this very court in the case
of Lawrence"
The prisoner (interrupting and strik-
ing the table with his fst)-"It's total
ly illegal, and no court in America"
The COURT will not resort to that
unless it is necessary, but may ad,non-
ish a person in advance; if the case re-
quires it, it will be done. have told

shall be heard at the close of the evi-

you must preserve silence.
II come here as counsel and I want
to be heard = cried the prisoner.
The court (sternly)-You cannot be
heard.
Guiteau-I accept your honor's rul-
ing and will let it go up to court IN banc
If | am convicted, the court in Janc
will reverse you and give me new
trial.
The court Ito Scoville)-I shall pass
any order you desire in regard to COM
munications.
The prisoner (impu]sively)-"I want
two or three of the best lawyers in
America, and / expect to get them"
The court (severely)-"We will not
talk about that"
II don't care if you don't have
had my say" exclaimed the prisoner
as parting shot, and he then relapsed
into comparative quiet.
District Attorney Corkhill then offer

were yesterday read to Blaine and iden.

After the examination of several wit
nesses, whose testimony was substan-
