 speculations in Guiteau's Case.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-As the trial of Guiteau is approaching its close, there is much speculation that the jury will promptly return verdict of guilty, but there are some who claim that they have seen certain signs which indicate that the jury will disagree. Some go so far as to say that they now stand nine for conviction and three wavering, even naming the latter. There Is for this supposition but the slightest kind of foundation. There is little doubt that should the verdict be guilty, the prisoner will spend several months Tn jail before the execution. Of course the defend ants counsel will take the case up to the next general term convening on Monday, the case will go to April term, which runs to September. In this case the prisoners execution may be postponed till next fall. If the jury get the case this week and find a verdict of guilty the execution will take place in the spring.
