Appeal TO the President in MnsOn's
Behalf.

MI. j. G.. Bigelow, counsel for Sergeant
Mason, visited the White House to-day and
submitted for the Presidents inspection re-
view of tho case OF his client and his reasons
for believing that the sentence of the court
martial Is void. Private Secretary Phillips
promised to lay tho matter before the Prest-
dent at the earliest opportunity, and assured
Mr.. Bigelow that IL would receive duo consid-
eration. The main points OF Mr.. Bigelow's ar
gument are: "rhat the court erred In trying
The prisoner for a violation OF the 62d article
Of war; that United States troops were guard
Ing the District jail without lawful authority;
that the Secretary OF War had no lawful au-
thorily to order the troops there, and that on
account OF tho position in which Mason stood
when he fired, and OF Guiteau's position in his
cell, II was @ physical tmposslbillty that the
