Court this morning Guiteau cslled out: Zone
of my guards here Cunningham has got an
eleven-pound baby for his New Years present .
Laughter, in which the jury heartily joined.l
DR.. Gray resumed the story of his converss-
ton with the prisoner in Jail.
Guiteau-That don't correspond with your
evidence of yesterday, Doctor. You went into
inspiration.
Scoville objected to the statement of the
witness that he lthe prisoner) said nothing of
inspiration or Divine pressure, and urged that
the witness must give the conversation, or the
substance of it as it occurred; that it would be
in the province Of the jury to say what should
be inferred from 1t.
Witness qualified his statement by adding:
81 asked him questions, and my statement is
based upon his replies" Witness, continuing.
said: The prisoner used the expression when
l made up my mind"
auiteau shouted, making up my mind was
the result of q grinding pressure. That's
where the inspiration came in. Please get
that straight while you are about it,"
scoville again objected that the witness wss
losing sight of the question and going into ar
gument.
Guiteau-He's forgotten what he testified to
yesterday. Corkhill must have gotten hold OF
him and instructed hin what to say to-day.
That's what's the matter with him.
Scoville disclaimed any desire to interrupt
the witness, but the prosecution held him to
objections specifically, and he must therefore
stop the witness at every point whore he was
satisfied an objection would lie.
Guiteau continually interjected CO comments,
and with Scoville's frequent objections the
witness soon became sensibly disturbed, and
when asked to 60 on said: ''There have been so
many Interruptions that I don't know where l
am"
Guiteau quickly retorted. "I shouldn't
think you did, nor any one else. have been
trying all the morning to find out where you
are. The fact is you are badly mixed this
morning, doctor; we will have to send q small
boy to find you"
Witness was about to state some of the rea-
sons which induced him to form the opinion
that the prisoner was sane at the time he WIS.,
tied him at the jail. when Guiteau again in
ferrupted and called out, "Dr. Gray is de.
voting himself to an argument to the jury this
morning, which he has no RICH to do. He
should conine himself to the facts; Porter
will take care of the arguments-(Sarcas-
tfcally)-Judge Porter, I mean"
scoville again objected, that the witness was
volunteering an argument instead Of adhering
to the statement OF facts.
Witness, with some feeling, replied, "I I'm
under oath, Mr.. Scoville, and I do not care to
volunteer anything which 10 not strictly and
appropriately evidence in the case.'
The witness did not find q single circum-
stance As narrated by the prisoner to indicate
insanity.
Cork6ill read a hypothetical question sim.
liar to that approved BY Scovtlle.
Witness analysed the question clause by
clause, and refused to answer It, because 1t did
not decide an insane person.
The prisoner, as the reading proceeded, In.
terrupted with, "All bosh; that's false. How
do you know that's Smiths lie r. etc.
Witness then stated at length what In Gui.
teau's actions in Court led him to believe that
he was sane.
When asked II he thought auiteau had been
feigning, he replied !: Eyes, I do. He claims
an inspiration from the Deity. I don't be.
i asnss ne Ss believes ss,Sm any such thing. and in such
Guiteau-No such thing. I never feign.
You are paid for your opinion; the jury ia not.
On cross-examinatton witness stated that he
had never. as an expert, pronounced q sane
man insane. or adjudged an insane one sane.
He admitted. however, Of having changed his
views since he began the study Of the subject.
G~uitesu-You may reach Abraham In 20
witness said he abandoned the moral in.
theory as long ago as 1854.
Guiteau-The amount OF 1t is these experts
will swear to anything fos money. The sub
ject Of insanity IL progressive.
Witness said he was unwilling to come. but
the President Of tteir Board thought he should,
and Q tell lam summoned him.
Guitesu-How about Corkhill's money!
guess that was the influence that brought you
here. This fellow Corkhill has got q bang
hole in the Treasury that will run out $l00. 900
before he gets through with this case, II is
about time President Arthur WAS atten ding to
MS case; ! wouldn't let him stay here . week
II was ] President. However, I'll attend to
in 1884.
