Judges James and Hagner, constituting the
court in banc, today rendered their decision

teau's behalf, Friday last. The Chief Justice
delivered the decision, which is as follows:
In the case of Guiteau the judges who lis
tened to the argument in that case have come
to the conclusion that they have exhausted
their powers upon it, that they have heard it
patiently, fully and fairly, and that re-argu-
ment would bring them to no other conclusion
than that which they have already arrived at,
and they decline to reopen the case for argu-
mont.
Charles H. Reed, counsel for Guiteau, yes
terday received the following letter under date
of May 81, from Mrs. Thodore Dunmire, for
merly wife of Gniteau:
shall esteem it personal favor if you will
inform me at once If any effort will be made
with President Arthur for eummutation of the
sentence of Charles. Please bear me in mind in
the matter, and If there is aught l can do to a
successful accomplishment, am ready to act.
We are not in favor of his being hung, al
though the press both here and elsewhere
have stated to the contrary.
Mr. Reed stated today after the failure of
his motion before the court in banc that he in
tended tomorrow 10 present further motion
in the Criminal Court, ,Judge Wylie presiding.
Nothing is known OF its nature by any person
except tho District Attorney and Mr.. Reed,
but it is supposed to be based on technical OBJ
jeetions to the form of the verdict.

A DRUNKEN MOB

Set Fire to and Nearly Destroy an Ala
bama Town.
TUSCALOOSA, June 5.-The town of Epes, in
Sumter County, Ala. was almost totally de-
stroyed by fire Saturday night. The particu-
lars, so far as they can be obtained, are as fol
lows: In the afternoon, crowd of drunken
negroes became very boisterous in the Streets
insulting the citizens and threatening violence
The white men banded together and drove the
turbulent crowd OUT of town. After nightfall
the negroes returned and set fire to the place
Seven stores were burned, but an estimate Of
losses and insurance cannot now be obtained
Four of the negroes implicated in the burning
boarded the up train on the Alabama Great
Southern Railroad, and were arrested when
the train arrived here. They are now in jail
and will be taken to Epes

A Tale of Suffering.

ST.. JOHN, N. B., June 5. A young fisher
man named Jose Marks, now here, tells cor
rowful story of suffering He was one of the
crew of Providence, r. l., fishing schooner
named "Wingela julia" or something like
that. On the 18th of April, off the Banks Of
Newfoundland, he and ten others went off in
dories, leaving the cook alone on board. A fog
came on, Marks lost the vessel, and for four
days his dory drifted about. On the first day
naming days and nights he had nothing to eat
or drink. On the 18th of April he was picked
up by the bark Condor and landed at Bue
touche last week, thence coming to st. John.
He was completely exhausted and partially
frozen. His face and hands were stiff, and
the captain of the Condor had to force open
his mouth to give him nourishment 1t is
more than probable that others of the schoon-
ers crew Jared as badly as Marks if no worse
