The Case Of Guiteau.

A DECISION EXPECTED NEXT MONDAY.
There is but little doubt that the decision OF the
Court In General Term Will be announced on
Monday next in the case OF Charles J. Gulteau,
convicted OF the murder OF President Garfield, and
sentenced to be hanged on the 3Oth Of June. and it
is understood that Judge James will deliver the
opinion OF the court. The opinion will be a very
exhaustive one especially On the question OF uris-
dissenting opinion but 1t is likely that each OF
the other judges [Chief Justice CARTIER and Judges
macarthur and Hagner) VIII give his individual
views.
THE QUESTION OF JURISDICTION.
There was considerable said in the argument on
the question OF jurisdiction, and the OF Rolla,
decided by Judge Crawford in this District In 1s49
was cited, and some members OF the bar have had
the impression that one OF the Judges would follow
this case in dissenting There was however, a
case decided in Maryland a few years ago In
which the question OF Jurisdiction was ruled on
but IL was not cited In this case. In the Maryland
case c0lored man, Bun Bell, was stabbed by
CnarleS wallace on steamboat at the White
House, on the Virginia shore OF the Potomac, and
being brought to this city died here. The Mary
land authorities under reQusit1on obtained the
custody of the murderer and he was taken to
Port Tobacco for trial The points were raised
on the trial that Maryland had no jurisdiction,
the 1atal blow was given outside the limits OF the
state, and, admitting that the act Was
committed within the Jurisdiction OF the state,
nad no jurisdiction. The court Judge Ford) held
that the jurisdiction OF Maryland extended to
high water mark on the Virginia side, and this act
was Witnln the jurisdiction OF the court, and that
II the fatal blow was given In the state the court
had Jurisdiction, although the death took place
elsewhere.
