say all of your I'VE do, all responded
I Another demonstration OF approval followed
this announcement, but not so prolonged al
the first. Scovilie, still upon his feet, de-
manded a poll OF he jury, which wai
| granted, and each iurSs-was called by name
/ aud each in 4 firm voice promptly responded

Scoviile again addressed the court, saying
"Your Honor, 90 not desire to forfeit any
right may have under the law and practice
| in this district II there is anything that !
ought to do now TO gave those rights
would be indebted to your Honor TO Judi
cate it TO me-" Judge Cox, in reply,
assured him he should have every oppor-
tunity; that the charge would be furnished
him in print tomorrow, and he would be ac-
corded all the time allowed by law within
which to file his exceptions, and that he
would also be entitled to four days within
which to move an arrest OF Judgment.
GuiteaU, who from the moment Judge Cox
began the delivery of his charge, had
dropped completely his air of insolent AFRO
gance, and sat with rigid features and COM
pressed lips, called out in tones of desper-
alton:
GOD WILL AvENGE THIS OUTRAGE"
Judge Cox then turned to the jury and
said: Gentlemen of the jury, cannot ex-
press too many thanks for the manner in
which you have discharged your duty; you
have richly meritsd thanks from your coun-
trynlen and / feel assured that you will take
with you to your homes the approval OF
your consciences. With thanks, gentlemen
Of the jury, / dismiss you"
ADJOURNED.
With this announcement the court was
declared adjourned, aud the now famous
trial which has absorbed public interest and
attention for more than ten weeks, was ended.
After Adjournment.
The. crowd quickly left the courtroom,
and the prisoner gesticulating with his man
acled hands was led out. As he passed the
reporters tables he leaned over and called
out to an acquaintance: The court
en- banc will reverse this BUSH
ness" His appearance was that of
a man deeply moved with indignation at
some outrage indignity which had been
put upon him. As he was being put in the
van a crowd of men and boys yelled and
shouted themselves hosrse, in mockery of
the prisoners constant boast, ''The American !
press and the people are all with me-" The |
van was quickly driven away, followed till |
out of sight by the jeers and yells of the
crowd.
Scoville will probably file a motion in ar |
rest OF judgment and for a new trial on |
exceptions. The law gives the defendant |
four days to file motion and the reasons for |
a new trial, and it is customary for the Court |
10 set some day to hear the argument thereon.
Should the motion be overruled the defendant |
will appeal to the general term, and under
the law the defendant is entitled TO a suspen-
sion of sentence until after the next gen.
aral term, not exceeding thirty days. The
anuary general term il now in ses-
sion, and the case cannot go |
here, but will be appealable to
The April term. II is the custom for the |
April term to run until September, taking |
recess over July and August; but should it
De closed by the latter part OF May, then, if |
Judgment is affirmed, the execution might
axe place in July.
