WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-when Judge Cox
entered Court this morning Guiteau was
Immediately brought in and placed in the
dock. Before taking his seat Guiteau
looked over his counsel, and said in q quiet
and rather pleasing tone: "Can l sit at
that table, if your Honor please?"
Judge Cox-If there is no objection by
counsel.
Guiteau-Have you IN objection, Colo
mel Corkhill?
Corkhill-No, sir.
The prisoner then took q seat at the ia
BILE by the side Of Scoville, and taking out
of his coat pocket a roll Of manuscript,

the Court please, before this motion is
made. / desire to correct a few errors that
have crept in"
At this point he was stopped by the
Court.
Corkhill objected to any remarks from
the prisoner.
Scoville also objected, and thought that
anything Of the kind had better be post
poned until the business OF the Court was
disposed Of.
Scoville continued: II your Honor
pleases, / have contemplated that some ad-
ditional time should be given for the mo-
ton. I also have the assurance from a
prominent member of the bar that he will
assist me next week.
Corkhill asked "Who is the gentle
man."
Scoville declined to give his name at
present, except in confidence to the Court.
Scoville then desired TO make q new mo-
ton relative to the additional grounds he
had discovered for asking for q new trial.
These grounds, he stated, were unauthor-
lied conversations with the jury by outside
parties and, second, the subsequent ad-
mission OF an expert that he thought Gut
teau insane. but did not dare say 60. for
fear it might injure him in his business
and the public estimation.
Scoville read an affidavit sworn and SUBJ
scribed to by himself, setting forth in de-
tail the grounds stated, and added. II
have not yet prepared for my motion.
based upon this affidavit, but presume it
will be sufficient II ! do SO ct any time
during the day."
Corkhill-Msy 1t please your Honor, the
time for fling such motions and afadavits
has expired.
Judge Cox-Well. we will postpone the
consideration OF this matter until the mo-
ton now before the Court il disposed Of.
Scoville proceeded to read the affidavit
and other papers filed by him, in connec-
ton with his motion for O new trial.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Mr. Scoville de-
MES that Mrs. Scoville il insane, but says
she Is naturally highly excited. He sp-
pears to favor the idea Of exhibiting the
body Of Guiteau as . means Of getting back
the money he has spent.
