ADDRESSING THE JURY.

The arguments to the jury have begun, and
the trial has already been in progress two
months. Davidge opened. The crowd that
had collected to hear Davidge was three times
as great as could get into the courtroom. As
Davidge traced the process Of reasoning by
which the prisoner gradually reached the con-
viction that but one life interposed between
himself and possibly great benefits, Guiteau
became restless, and for the first time since
the opening Of the court indicated by
his nervous twisting the usual preliminaries to
quickly followed. "Not often" said Davidge,
"in the record of heinous crime do we have
such plain and pointed evidence as to the first
conception of crime. In this case the sugges-
tion came to the wretch in the night, as he was
lying in his bed. The thought or suggestion
ing that he might obtain the Office he sought
and keep his hands clean, he made another ef-
fort on the 2Sth of May to induce the
President "-at this point the interrupt
tions of the prisoner became SO great
that Dayidge could not proceed. AZ
ter the prisoner had his say, Davidge pro-
ceeded. Hereviewed the circumstances Of the
crime, and the victim, and the criminal. His
analysis of Guiteau's character was graphic
and effective. "If, he exclaimed, 81 were to
sum up the moral and intelligent qualities Of
this man, should say that he had the daring
of vulture, combined with the heart Of
WOLF" In speaking of Guiteau's plan, he re-
marked upon his greater fear Of a mob than Of
the law, and exclaimed "We must say, to our
shame, that this estimate had foundation.
1t rested" he added, "with the jury to show
the world whether Guiteau's opinion was
well founded. If he had feared the
laws rs he feared the mob our mar
tyred head and chief would be alive to-day"
Davidge discussed the evidence, which he had
arranged chronologically, with startling per-
spicuity, taking one witness after another and
pointed out the weaknesses and unreliability Of
the opinions of witnesses for Defense which
had been based, in many instances, on a mea-
ger acquaintance. Davidge's argument was
not completed.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1882-01-19
ARGUMENTS.

After the usual harrangue from Guiteau, as
an opening speech, Scoville resumed his argu-
ment. He proceeded without interruption for
an hour. His remarks were listened to with
marked attention. He laid stress upon the
propositions that insane men often knew the
difference between right and wrong, and for
that reason conceal their plans. That the bene-
fit of a doubt should attach to plea of insan-
ity when raised with the same force as when
urged in connection with the commission of
crime. His allusion to the decision of Judge
Davis, "who went out of his way" he said, ''to
pass upon something not involved in the case he
was then considering, brought Judge Porter to
his feet with the indignant reply that the charge
was false. Scovile retorted that the opinion
of a man who sat on the same bench with
Barnard and CardoZo should not be received
with much consideration. Judge Porter, with
even more vehemence, reiterated that the
charge of counsel was absolutely false, that
Judge Davis never sat on the bench with either
Of the gentlemen named. "f an honorable
member of the Federal Judiciary is to be put
upon trial here, I demand, said Judge Porter,
" that the record be produced here
upon which this base charge is made" Sco-
vile insisted that when the style of proceed
ings best suited to police court were introduced
here by prosecution, he should comment upon
them as he deemed fitting. He should not be
frightened by the tragic utterances of Judge
Porter. He had heard the same notes years
