as since he heard of the petition,
moved by his sister, TO have the
Chicago Court give her legal Gus
tody of his estate. Guiteau thinks
all his sister wants to accomplish
Is to get the profits of his book.
He declares if he has to die that bo
will make q will to keep her from
getting cent from the estate.
Scoville he positively rules out of
his case, anu Reed will hereafter
have entire charge. Guteau has
obtained about 500 from the sales
OF his pictures and autographs.
The receipts average $40 daily.
Should The application for - nav
Trial be denied, the Warden will
sat once exclude all visitors who
call from curiosity, aud put IN eud
to the'sale OF pictures and auto.

proceedings at the Jail, connected
with the exhibition Of the ass ASSN,

writes in his book: "If all other
remedies fail, I shall boldly appeal
TO the President for relief under
my own hand"
