BLOOMINGTON, H., Jan. 21.-The inter

CATION continues intense, and is still the
leading subject of conversation throughout
the city. To-day was the fifth day of the
investigation. The committee met this
morning promptly at o O'clock, and con
tinued in session until o'clock this after
noon. To day several well-known clerical
gentlemen, residing in different parts of the
state, were to be seen upon the streets.
many of them supposed to be witnesses
for the defense, but it is now safe to pre-
sumo that the prosecution will not close
the case before the middle of next week
1t will take perhaps the remainder of the
week for the defense to finish the case
The complaining witness. Miss Robinson,
has been on the stand during most OF the
day, and has been subjected to very rigid
and searching cross s-examination. 1t is rs
serted upon reliable authority that she has
so far made strong case, and counsel
have not broken her evidence in any OF the
material facts

on the first occasion, said Judge Por-

he done it on that occasion he would have
been torn to pieces and he knew it. On
this occasion the President was surrounded
by his cabinet and his friends. His son,
not yet strong, but who would have been
urged st such q time with God given
strength to defend his father, was also by
his side. and the assassin's craven heart
failed him and he said, Not yet, at some
other time" With graphic picturing

Guiteau had to do it il he died the next
minute anytime after June first Why did
he not kill him? Because he thought he
would do it some other time, because this
politician thought he could become identi-
cal with the stalwart and republican party.
because he thought he had so carefully laid
the foundation for his defense against
| crime and for his protection from
mob violence that he might safely
commint it in the light Of day
This careful man, careful of his own safe
ty, made every provision, even to his con-
veyance to Jail, and when he had seen his

The District Attorneys duty was plain,
and his salary fixed by law, said Judge
Porter. 1t is simply two hundred dollars

| Bcribed by law. Guiteau shouted: His
Office, am told, is worth $40, 900 a year,
and yet he can't pay his board bills. He

Speaking Of his own compensation, Judge
Porter said that was matter
to be fixed and determined by the highest
law offices of the government, and whether

would make no difference if his full duty
in this responsible charge was performed.
In reply to broadcast imputation put upon
