Chief Engineer George W. Melville.
who is making the hazardous and almost
hopeless search for the missing boat and
party of the Jeanette under command of
Lieutenant Chip. is man of very strik-
ing appearance. He was born in New
York city, and in his young days his fam
lily was well known among the old
Knickerbockers. He is a heavy-built
man. weighing about 100 pounds, and is
about FIVE feet eleven inches in height.
OF large and powerful frame, he is of
light complexion, and has bright, piercing
blue eyes. He is supple. and a skilled
athlete. When he returned from the Arc
tic in the Tigress. in November, 1873. he
visited the engineers Office in the Navy
Yard, and when met by his brother officers
the natural question was asked, ''Well.
George, how do you feel" Unanswered.
".As bright as new uniform, and never
felt better;'' and to prove his assertion
turned handspring without the least
difficulty. When serving his time in the
machine shop he could do more work in
the same time than any other man. and
when passing through the shop if he met
an obstruction no higher than his shout
ders he would spend no time in going
around it, but would jump over it with
the greatest ease.

The GUTTEAU CASE.
Hearing the Exceptions.-A Sharp Poin
by C0rkhill.
WAsHlxGrox. MAY II.

WASHINGTON, May III.
The hearing before the court in banc upon
defendants exceptions in the case of Charles
j. Guiteau, was resumed this morning. Col.
Reed desired to call attention to one author
ity to the point that it is the duty of the court
TO sustain the technicalities when they appear
in the law. He quoted Lord Mansfeld's OBJ
servations upon this subject, pending the de-
cision of case when popular clamor demands
a contrary decision.
Judge Carter-You mean to say he held the
mob should not try the case?
Reed-Precisely.
Carter-Well, that is sound law We &C.
cept it.
District Attorney Corkhill then began his
opening argument for the prosecution. He
rehearsed the shooting of the President, his
being taken to Elberon to save his life, and
his death there.
He continued: But this effort to save his
life, and if possible by human means, TO
prevent the effects of this crime, is now made
the important and leading feature in the ar
gument against the punishment of the GRIM
inal. 1t is gravely said that because Presi-
dent Garfield was not allowed to remain here
and die, that therefore this court has no juris-
diction to try the assassin who committed the
murder. and that under the construction of
the law for centuries the fatal stroke and the
death must both occur in the same Jurisdic-
ton to make the crime complete.
The counsel then discussed from his brief,
| the question of jurisdiction, which is the
main reliance of the defence. He concluded
by saying: In the complete record of this
case every word uttered by the court, coun-
sci, witness or prisoner. is before this court
for examination, and am certain that in the
records of no criminal trial in this or any
other country can there be found such lenity
to the prisoner on the part of the court, and
yet so scrupulous care as to his every right
so careful an analysis of the law and so
thorough and complete legal discrimination
IS to the testimony.
Corkhill finished his argument at II. is,
and Davidge began the closing argument for
the prosecution, addressing himself to the
question of jurisdiction.
The court adjourned until tomorrow morn
ing, Davidge not having concluded his argu-
ment

HARCOURT'S BILL,
For the Prevention of Crime in Ireland.

LONDON, May IL.
In Commons this evening Harcourt, the
Home Secretary, introduced bill for the
repression of crime in Ireland.
He characterized the prevalence of crime
there as a national disgrace. He said the
time had arrived for the entire House to unite
in taking steps to repress it. The case we
deplore today is not a solitary one. Crime is
plague spot on Ireland, and l believe the
Irish people desire its removal. 1t springs
from secret societies, and must be extirpated.
The handspring of crime is the expectation
of impunity which is only too wellfounded.
The government therefore concluded it is
necessary in those places where ordinary law
is not observed, special tribunals, consisting
of three judges, be appointed by the Lord
Lieutenant to try cases without jury. The
Judgment of the court must be unanimous.
Supreme Court may diminish but cannot
increase severity of sentence. The bill also
gives the power to search for secret appara-
tus of murder, such as arms. threatening let
tiers, etc. power to enter houses by day or
night under warrant of the Lord Lieutenant;
power to arrest persons providing about at
night who are unable to give an account of
themselves, who are to be dealt with sum-
marily; power to arrest strangers, as crimes
are generally committed by foreign emissa-
ries, the hospitality of England not being for
such persons rs are agents of O'DOnovan
Rosa; and power to remove foreigners con-
sidered dangerous to the peace. The govern
ment therefore intends to revive the alien act.
Harcout announced that the government
intended to reserve for consideration, any
further alteration of the jury system. He ad-
mitted that this bill was extraordinary, but
declared it necessary to meet extraordinary
circumstances.
Northcote said the opposition desired to
give the government all the assistance in
their power, but should hold them response
BILE for the way in which they discharged
their duty.
Dillon fercely denounced the bill.

Flashes By Cable ffoa Ireland and Eng
land.

LONDON. MAY IL.
A large and sympathetic crowd gathered at
the St. Pancras railway station. today, to
witness the departure of the special train
CONVEYING the mourners to Chatsw orth to At
tend the funeral Of Lord Frederick Caven-
dish Among them we're Gladstone and sons,
Lord Granville, Mr.. Forster, Speaker Brand
and several members Of Parliament. the
Prince of Wales and Duke of Edinburg,
representing the Queen, and nu nervous other
persons. One of the most conspicuous TEA
lures of the funeral was the assemblage OF
5000 tenants of the Duke of Devonshire,
father Of Lord Cavendish.
DAvIrr's MANLY LETTER.
Davitt. in his letter to the Standard, says
there is in his heart no sentiment OF bitter
ness towards the English people. In the tri-
umph of the gospel of the Gland for the PEG
pie" il involved the social regeneration OF
England as clearly as that of Ireland. He
asks that the Irish be treated as equals, and
says he will willingly go to Ireland and do
what he can to further peaceful doctrines,
but he asks how he can protest with effect
against outrages when most brutal and irri-
tating outrages are being committed.
DAvITr's FEARS.
New YORK, May IL.
In cable received BY Ford of the Irish
World, today, Davitt expressed fears that
sacrifice will be demanded to satisfy the ven
geance of Irish landlordism, and he further
says that he has private information that he
himself will be the one selected.
STARTLING STATEMENT.
DUBLIN, May IL.
1t is stated that as Michael Morris, Lord
Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas,
and Charles Robert Barry, fourth Justice of
the Court of Queens Bench, were walking in
Phoenix Park, Saturday, a few minutes after
the murders, and before they knew of them,
a rough looking man said to the Chief JUS
tice: THE Chief and Under Secretary have
been murdered, and you are the next man
spotted" Justice Morris believed at the time
that the man was lunatic, but he has since
been absent from the court, and it is thought
he has gone to England.
SUSPICIOUS CHARACTERS ARRESTED.
Further arrests have been made in Dorg-
heda, Longford and County Meath, in con-
nection with the murder of Cavendish and
Burke. The three men arrested in County
Meath have what are supposed to be blood
stains on their clothes. The police discredit
the statements of the man who asserted that
he had been offered fl00 to assist in the
murders, and who was taken from Haverf0rd
West to Liverpool, yesterday.
LONDON, May IL.
The man arrested is known as Quail or
Quinn. There is some doubt as to his cor
rect name. He was arrested at Preston, yes
terday, on suspicion of being concerned in
the murder of Cavendish and Burke, and has
been remanded until Saturday. A detective
stated that he thought he could call evidence
which would implicate him in the crime.
DUBLIN, May IL.
A man named Doherty has been arrested
at Belfast. He has recently returned from
America.

The cross-examination of Mr.. Lovejoy was
resumed by Blydenburg, and the witness tes-
titled to seeing James Malley and lady on
the old green, Friday, August 9TH, between
noon and one o'clock.
Blydenburg's cross-examination Of Love-
joy was very tedious and prolonged, and it
was difficult to discover. what he was after
except to get witness to contradict something
of minor importance that he may have te.ti-
fed to at the preliminary hearing in West
Haven.
Geo. I. Audley was the next witness. He
testified that he worked for his father who
kept livery stable, and saw James Mal!ey
on Friday, August 5th, in the afternoon, pass
the stable with young lady who wore four
rings similar to what Jennie Cramer wore.
The testimony given at the afternoon ses-
sion tended to dispute the abb claimed in
the case of James Nalley, Jr. on August 9Th

offered by the Government last year re-

failure. owing to the provoking indiffer-

Daniel Killeen, lad Of fifteen years,
came to an extremely painful death in the
Albany Iron-works on Friday evening last.
He was snatching few minutes of much
needed sleep upon plank near the "train
rollers" from which was issuing an iron
rod heated to white heat and forty or
fifty feet In length. These rods move at
speed of fifteen feet second. and their
direction it is impossible to control or
determine. This one, after twisting about
for an instant. shot towardthe sleeping boy
and burned its way into his body. The next
moment 1t withdrew itself; with a cry Of
agony the boy jumped up. and in fifteen
minutes he was dead.
