 During the delivery of the Judges
 charge, which was completed at 4;40 p.
 m., there was perfect stiffness in the
 crowded court room and even the pris-
 oner kept absolutely quiet with the ex-
 ception of one or two simple interrup-
 tions. The jury immediately retired
 and many spectators left the court room.

 WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The prisoner
 came in with quick nervous step, and
 as be seated himself in the dock the light
 of solitarycandle fell full upon his face
 and disclosed more than usual pallor, not tremor of his limbs or movement of
 the muscles ofhis face was observable. As
 he threw back his head and fixed his gaze
 upon the door through which the Jury
 were to enter Judge Cox soon after
 wards took his seat and the Crier called
 "order,r and the Jury at 5:30 filed slowly
 into their seats. Every sound was h.,sii-
 ed save the voice of t.isq cierG as he pro-
 ryunded to the foreman the usual inquiry, clear and distinct, came the reply "we have" "What is your verdict, guilty or not guilty" With equal distiDetness came the reply, guilty as indicted Then the pent up feelings of the crowd | fohnd expression in uproarous demons trations of applause and approval. "Or- | der" "order" shouted the bailif. ScOville and counsel for prosecution were simul- taneously upon their feet. Seoville at tempted to address the court but Dis | trict Attorney shouted to wait til we have the verdict complete, and in due form of law. Order was at lenght res- tored and the Clerk again addressing the Jury said: "Your foreman says gull ty as indicted, so say We all of us." "We do," all responded. Another demons tration of approval followed this anoun- cement but not so prolonged as at first. Scoville still upon his feet demanded poll of Jury which was granted and each juror was called by name and each in a firm voice promptly responded Guilty" As the last name was called the prisoner shrieked: My blood will be upon the heads of that Jury and don't you forget It." Scoville again addressed the court, saying: "Your Honor, I do not desire to forfeit any rights I may have under the law and practice in this district if there is anything that ought to do now to save those rights I would be indebted to your Honor to grant it to me" Judge Cox in reply assured him he should have every opportunity, that the change would be furnished him in print tomorrow and he would be ac- corded all the time allowed by law within which time to make his exceptions and that he would also be entitled to four days within which to move in arrest of judgement. Guiteau, who from the mo- ment Judge Cox began the delivery of his charge, had dropped completely his air of lippiant arrogance, and sat with rigid features and compressed lips call | ed out in tones of desperation, God will avenge this outrage" Judge Cox then turned to the Jury and said, | "Gentlemen of the Jury, I cannot ex- press too many thanks for the manner in | which you have discharged your duty; 1 you have richly merited the thanks of your countrymen and feel assured you will take with you to your homes the | approval of your conscience. With ! thanks, gentlemen of the Jury, l dismiss | you" With this announcement the Court was declared adjourned, and the | now famous trial which has absorbed | the public interest and attention for | more than ten weeks was ended. The crowd quickly left the court room 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 in Bank will reverse this busi | ness" His appearance was that of a man deeply moved with indignation at | some outrage or 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 hoarse in mockery of the prisoners | constant boast, "The American press and people are all with me" The Van was quickly driven away and followed | till out of sight by jeers and yells of the crowd.
 Scoville will probably file motion Tn arrest of judgement and for a new trial on exceptions. The law gives the defendant | four days to file motion and reasons for new trial and it is custOmery for the court to set some day to hear argument. Should this motion be overruled, de- fendant will appeal to the General | Term and under the law, the defendant is cause suspension of sentence till after the next General Term, not exceeding thirty days. January General Term Is now in session and the case cannot be heard then, but will be appealable to the April term and until September, taking a recess over July and August, but should it be closed by the latter part of May and then if the judgement is af- firmed, the execution might take place in July.
 After the charge of Judge Cox, and after the jury had been out about twen- ty minutes, recess was taken until half past five o'clock, many of audience who had virtually been imprisoned since half past nine in the morning availed them selves of opportunity to obtain fresh air and lunch. Prisoner at his request had been allowed soon after jury left court | room to retire to little room he has oc- cupied since trial began as waiting room during recess. Before leaving court room he evlnced considerable nerv- ousness but on getting away to com partments began his usual composure and assurance but soon returned. He sent out for some apples with which he treated his attendants. Meanwhile chatting familiarly and good naturedly. He was asked what he thought the jury would do and replied, q think they will acquit me or disagree, don't you?' Within te, minutes after recess had heen
