and It thorough and complete examina-
ton made with view of determining
all physiological facts that could be of
| interest in connection with the case. The
brain was found to be in normal con-
! dition and weighed 40 ounces. The heart
weighed little over ounces and was
| in c .sealtby condition, as were all the
other internal organs. DIR. McWilliams,
the first physician to leave the room
| where the autopsy was held, said there
was nothing so far as he could see about
the brain that was abnormal. Its weight
| according to DR.. McWIlliams, was 49,
ounces. The general viscera he said
were in perfect condition. At 3 80 D. IN.
the autopsy was adjourned until this eve

medical museum on 10th street, where a
more minute and critical examination

AFTER THE EXECUTION.
Autopsy Upon the Remains of GuIteau
The Brain and Other Organs Found
in a Healthy Condition.

/ WASHINGTON, June 30.-Just before
moon John W. Guiteau said to repre-.
sentative of the associated press that he
felt cheerful SO far IS his brother was
concerned, believing il TO be far better
for him to die than live. He said that
| no one felt keeneT anguish than he him
| self for the crime that had been COM
mitied which plunged the nation into
grief. He believed, however, that his
brother would show himself to be 8
brave man, and from his own standpoint
would Viudicate his idea of patriotism.
His life Is a wreck and worthless" said
John, "and | think this is the most fit
ting end 10 = chCckered and insane ca
rcer." He believed that his brother
would die happy, and owing to his de-
mentei condition, would be forgiven in
the next world. He thought that his
brother would be happier in death than
in life under the circumstances, and if
he (John) could, he would not have him
repFievcd. John was in the same mood
after the execution. II believe he was
insane" said he; ~ predicted just what
would happen, that he would go bravely
to the galiowS. The trial was a farce
and to-day the insane man was executed.
n neither he was insane before God do
not know. Still | believe that if he was

At 3:15 the military guard on duty at

when she will be permitted to
