 Granted TO DETERMINE HIS SANITY. Division of Opinion in the

 the Prosecution.
THE STAR ROUTE TRIALS
THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.

Guiteau's Case-Consfdered in the Cabi- net Meeting-An Opinion From Attor- ney General Brewster.
 WASHINGTON, June 23.-The only question considered at the Cabinet meeting was Gui- teau's case. The President presented peti- tions for respite signed by scientific men all over the country until Guiteau's sanity can be established. The President called an tra session of the Cabinet for o'clock this evening, when the case was to be finally de- cided. After having an interview with the Attorney General, MT. Reed had an interview with the President and proffered the request that respite be granted Guitsau until the full bench of the Supreme Court could pass upon the matter of the jurisdiction of the court that tried Guiteau. Mr. Reed said he was in entire sympathy with the humanita- rians who called on the President yesterday in Guiteau's behalf.
 Attorney General Brewster submitted to the special Cabinet meeting 8 report on the proposition to grant reprieve to Guiteau. All the members refuse to disclose the nature of the report tonight. It was adopted by the meeting and will be promulgated to-mor- row. The idea that reprieve will be grant ed is widely accepted.
 It is rumored late tonight that Attorney General Brewster's 1eport on the petition for Guiteau's reprieve was adverse on the ground that the question of sanity was legally settled by the verdict of the jury and that it was useless to reopen it. The Cabinet discussed the report for an hour and half and threw 1t over. The vote is not known. Attorney General Brewster has been instructed to pre-. pare report embodying the views of the majority and promulgate it through the press associations to morrow. It is understood that this means a brief reprieve merely for the purpose of having commission examine the prisoner.

The Star Route TriaIs-Further Evt-
 dence For the Prosecut1on-Other Mat
 ters.
 WASHINGTON, June 23.-In the Star route trials Mrs. Elizabeth Wilson, postmaster at Dalles, Ore, was recalled for cross-examina tion as to the number and nature of the con- tracts made on the Horny route No. A, 155. In answer to MT. Wilson she said that while the Indian troubles in that section may have caused some of the irregularities in the ser vice, the small pay allowed by the depart ment was the principal cause. MT. Wilson explained that he was trying to show by the witness how the difficulties surrounding the situation had prevented the contractors from stocking the route in time to begin opera tions upon the contracted date. Mir. Bliss then produced letter from Mrs. Wilson to the department, dated July 15, 1878, In which she says that the Indian war prevailing at the time rendered good mail service indispen- sable. Turning the letter over, Mir. Bliss said, "Now look at this official endorsement (reading letter) from the postmaster at the Dalles stating that the Indian war prevents good service. I think we can show by whom that was made" The consideration of route No 38,l 45 from Ojocaliente to Parrott City was then resumed. Mir. Bliss read an or directing the increase of service to three trips per week, upon fifty hour schedule A letter from John M. True, post master at Animas City, informs the depart ment that after suffering terrible hardships while trying to get the mails through on schedule time in the face of binding snow storms and swollen torrents, the carriers and sub contractor have been forced to give up the service. The postmaster adds that all of the losses for failures have fallen upon these unfortunate persons, who find themselves cut of from all compensation after their heroic attempts to perform the service. He also says that from his own knowledge he can say that the contractor actually makes more money from this state of affairs than if the service had been performed. A letter from Postmaster Hernandez at Ojocaliente protests against the cutting off ot mail service from that town. This protest is endorsed by Sen ator Teller, who recommends the re-estab- lishment of the service. large number of petitions requesting increased service on this route were put in to supplement those intro ducea yesterday. Court adjourned till Mon day.
 The Secretary of the Treasury has decided not to reverse the decision made some time since charging the duties imposed on hoop iron on splayed and cut to lengths for barrel hoops.
 The matter of the immigration bill that passed the House on Monday has been set tied by the sub committee, who will make report to the House to morrow simply recit- ing the facts of the alleged wrongful presen- tatlon of the bill recommending the passage of the bill as agreed on in the committee.

THE FISHING 1 n
And Summer Resorts Worth
Seeking.

The Grand Rapids and Indiana
Railway Company is preparing for an
extra amount of pleasure travel dur
ing the ensuing spring and summer
aud rates are to DO made very low.
This is the only route to the trout,
grayling and black bass fisheries and
the famous summer, health and game
resorts Of Northern Michigan.
Mr.. A. B. Leet, the general passen-
ger agent of the line, whose head
quarters are at Grand Rapids, is pre-
pared to give all information to per-
sons DESTROYS of knowing about the
attractions in the ice region, through
which the route passes; also regarding
its connections with the railways and
the cost of travel, as we'll as of living
at various points. He will furnish,
free of charge, a handsomely illus
tratod guide book of l6O pages to all
who may wish a copy.
Through the politeness Of MIR. Leet
a neat little memorandum pamphlet
has been received at this office, and
among other things it says Of this
delightful section THE waters Of
the Grand Traverse region, and the
Michigan North woods, are unsur-
passed, if equaled, in the abundance
and great variety Of fish contained.
Brook trout abound in the streams,
and the famous American grayling is
found only in these waters.
BLACK bass, pike, pickerel and
muskalonge lsoabound in large num-
bers in the many lakes and lakelets OF
this territory. The sportsman can
readily send trophies Of his skill to his
friends or club at home, as ice for
packing fish can be had at nearly all
points.
1.-THE scenery Of the North woods
and lakes is very beautiful. The air
is pure, dry and bracing. The eli
mate is peculiarly beneficial to those
suffering with hay fever and asthmatic
affections" Good accommodations are
assured at new hotels with all modern
improvements, which are in course of
completion for the season of 1882.
Dogs, guns and fishing tackle are
carried'free at owners risk, the aim
being to make sportmen feel at home
on this route.
A connecting line of railway from
Petoskey to Mackinaw is to be com
pleted by June, after which daily
trains will be run to Mackinaw, st.
Squall, Marquette, L'Ause, Negau-
nee, and other points. Direct com
munications are already arranged with
routes to Cincinnati, indianapolis and
all points South and East.
The sections above mentioned IAN
not be surpassed either as a pleasure
resort or for hunting, fishing and
shooting purposes.

LOCKED HORNS.
Contest Between Two Citizens.

About dusk last evening ex-Judge
Il. j. Morgan and Mr.. +. S. Nichols,
editor Of the Avalanche, collided on
Madison street, in front of Specht's.
There was a little Gaming exercise,
some cutting and biting, a tumble and
roll over one another, and a separa-
ton, all within two minutes and a half.
When it ended the Judge was escorted
home, and the other had his abrasions
dressed and garments smoothed, pass
ing up the street two hours after on
his way to his work. A rumor pre-
vailed on the street, after the frolic
ended, that fence rails were the weap.

hands, however, instead Of horns.
Neither of the belligerents had any
horns on this occasion. No two per-
sons agreed in their account of the
f%racas, and the two morning papers,
both with long versions, are as differ

expect to come out winner; but some
are ready to plead the baby act as soon

weston, both bootblacks, met on the
corner of Main and Huling streets and
got into a dispute about the merits of
a previous difficulty. Galveston called
Craig a foul name, and the latter de-
manded that he should retract it.
Craig then picked up brick which he
threw at Galveston, bus missed his
aim. Galveston Immediately gathered
another brick from the pavement and
slung it violently at Craig, which struck
him just under the left ear and made
an ugly wound, from which the blood
flowed freely. Dazed by the blow,
Craig drew his knife and rushed fran
tically upon his antagonist. The blade
went straight to the heart, and as it
was withdrawn the hearts blood
rushed out like a water spout. Gal
weston fell dead upon his face, and
when picked up his mouth
was found to be = full of

great drops Of perspiration stood out
upon his forehead. He begged to be
