WASHINGTON June 22-Mss Chevallier of
Boston, secretary of the National society for
the protection of the insane, accompanied by
DIR. Geo. M. Beard of New York, DIR. w. w.
Godding, superintendent of the government
hospital for the insane, and Rev. W. Ell. Hicks,
pastor of the Tabernacle, and who is now act
ing as Guiteau's spiritual adviser, had an in
terview with the President this afternoon by
special appointment and presented a petition
praying for q reprieve of Guitesu and for the
creation of a scientific commission to determine
upon the sanity or insanity of the condemned
man. The petition is signed by number of
medical experts who state their conviction that
Guiteau is insane, and urge the propriety of
such commission.
The death warrant has been engrossed, but it
will not be signed until the President makes
formal decision on the applications now before
him for respite and for a Communication of the
sentences to Imprisonment for life. Meanwhile
the galloWs, which has been used three times
for previous executions, has been erected in
the north wing of the jail
Guiteau is failing noticeably and rapidly. His
appetite is very much less than it was before
the effort to secure writ of habeas corps from
Justice Bradley failed. The jail officers report
him as very serious ard disinclined to talk
They have decided to ad NIT no one TO see him
except the clergyman whom ne has selected
and his counsel. Warden Crocker says, how
ever, that there are no indications of insanity
and that he is, as he (the WardeD) has
always thought he was, an entirely respon-
sible man. The death warrant has not been
received yet at the Jail, and of course will not
be until after the application for a reprieve
now pending before the President, shall
have been determined. No one expects
the president will interfere with the
execution OF the sentence. A few sentiment
talists and scientists are endeavoring to
induce the President to grant reprieve, in
order that still another investigation may be
able Meanwhile the guard has been doubled
and Guiteau is kept under the closest surveil-
lance day and night.

NEW HAVEN June 22.--In the Malley trial
to-day DR.. Francis A. Harris, medical examin-
or for the northern district of Suffolk county,
Mass, testified that his duties were to examine
into all cases where death is supposed to have
resulted from violence and il found so to report
police or trial justice
Mr. Jones asked the witness question previ-
ousy put to the other medical experts concern
ing tho finding of the body of the Cramel girl
Aug. 6, last, the handling it un derwent at the
undertakers, &c, also the post mortem which,
resulted in fRding 3 1-10 grains of arsenic in
the stomach filed with partially dig ested food
"Now, doctor, on that state of facts want you
to tell the jury what in your Judgment was the
resnlt of death?" to which the physician an
swered, "the only reasonable opinion that
could be formed was that she died from drown
ing, If follow the question correctly, that the
organs of the body were healthy which would
indicate that death from natural causes had
not taken place and it leaves the determination
of the cause of death between two things arr
sanical poisoning and drowning, aud OF these
two the proper opinion should be that the cause
OF death was drowning"
"Have you any doubt about it?"
'No sir"
''I want to ask you if the ESsenc found in
the stomach and intestines had anything to do
with the fatal issue of the case, the death, there
being 10 Inflammation in those organs?"
No, sir, it would have no influence Arsen-
ic, when it produces fatal poison, must do SO,
either by the effect of violent local inflammation
or by the effecf upon other parts of the system,
the other organs and tissues, after it has been
absorbed. The arsenic, in the question you put
me, has been absorbed, consequently it has no
effect upon the remote organs and tissues; it
has created no local Inflammation in this case,
therefore the influence of that particular arsen-
ic upon the result is nothing"
"What would be the effect of fatal dose
taken into the stomach by person not accus-
toned to the use of the poison?"
II should expect to find the stomach and in
testines almost throughout their entire extent,
even including the rectum infamed, but this is
said to be not Invariably the case"
ST desire to ask you not what is possible but
what is natural; what you would expect to
find.'
ST have already stated should expect to
findsinhammation.
Charles III. Smith, of Savin Rock, a boatman,
testified that in his opinion Jennie Creamer's
body could not have foated that morning to
where it was taken out if it had como on that
tide from the second landing on Kelsey's
wharf There we're two reasons for his opin-
ion: one was the water was not deep enough
to float body over the bar, and the other that
the current that morning would have carried
q body more to the eastward toward the har-

Eclectic convention this forenoon it was re-
ported that the treasurer last year received
S96 900 and spent 81 ,255 more. 1t appeared

whom have not paid their dues for three years.
II appeared also that some doctors who have
paid their dues have not received their certih-
Gates. College delegates have some privileges
in the association which other members have
not. A proposition of leveling kind created
some excited discussion on the part of the col
lsgians. The other delegates wanted the right
OF eclectic colleges to dictate in the election of
officers stamped out. Finally it was decided to
have the proposed amendment to the bylaws
lay over ono year. There was more fun and
excitement however afterwards during mo-
tioBs and countermotions arising out of a
proposition not to have any discrimination
concerning college delegates during the pres
ent convention. Then papers were read until
noon on medical subjects. This evening the
association will have soiree at Savini Rock.

Prospect that the Freight Handlers will

NEW YORK, June 22.-The situation of the
freight handlers strike is practically un-
changed and both employers and employed
seem determined to hold out. An opinion
prevails that the railroad companies will have
to give in either this afternoon or tomorrow.
The merchants, it is said, are using all their
powers of persuasion to induce the company to
give the increased wages. The ''checkers"
who take account of freight as it goes in and
out of the cars of the Erie road in Jersey City
refused to work with the $50 freight handlers
