THE GUITEAU CASE.
The Points Made by Reed In His Open
ing Argument.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-The argument
upon the bill OF exceptions to the Guiteau
case was begun, this morning, before the
Judge of the Supreme Court of the district
sitting in banc. Chief Justice Cartier preSid-
ing, and Justices Macarthur, Agner and
James.
Col Corkhill and Davidge appeared for
the Government, and Reed for Gutteau.
Reed, after brief opening, passed to the
discussion of the question OF jurisdiction
of the court below, arguing the crime was
not indictable in this district because the
offence was not completed here, mortal
stroke having been given here, while death
occurred in New Jersey.
Chief Justice Cartier interrupted at one
point to suggest that while murder was the
killing of person, and crime could not
be defined a. murder until death
occurred, yet the act OF felony was
completed, when the murderer had
finished with his victim. Counsel pro-
Ceeded to discuss the various authorities
upon the subject of jurisdiction. In brlel
counsel admitted Guiteau might be indict-
ed, and if found to be sane, convicted i'll
this District of an assault with intent to
kill, hut held he could not be tried for
murder.
Reed argued that the sentence Of death is
void because the day fixed for execution OF
the sentence is rot authorized by law,
claiming that under proper construction
of the statutes of the District, the date OF
execution should have been fixed for some
day within thirty days after the fourth
Monday OF October, 1882.

PENNSYLVANIA REPUBLICANS.
The La,es, slate for State Officers

HARRISBURG, PA, May 9-Don Cameron,
Col. Quay, Gen. Beaver, Senator Davis and
a few others, had a conference, this morn
ing. A place on the ticket for Wolfe is
being arranged by these most powerful in
shaping the convention, and some express
sions OF dissatisfaction are heard but the
following ticket will probably be put for
ward by the leaders:
For Governor, General Beaver; Lieuten-
ant Governor. Chas. 5. Wolfe; Congress
man AZ large, Senator Davis; Supreme
Judge, W. A. Eowle; Secretary of Internal
Affairs, Senator Greer.
There may be changes later on, but the
above is the slate as at present. decided
upon.
Members of the Allegheny delegation
charge Magee with acting in bad faith for
the purpose of eyading Camerons Rawle
programme against Brown, and they are
holding out to the McManes delegates a
proposition, Help us on Brown and We
will give you the Secretaryship OF Internal
Affairs
There is a great deal OF bad feeling among
regulars against the stating of Wolfe, and
the discomfort grows wider and deeper
hourly. If there was any one to concen-
trate the force there is in this feeling. it
would become an open revolt that would
make nomination impossible.
Some of the delegates think that Wolfe
will not accept place on tn eticket il ten
dered him.
Senator Cameron returned to the Lochiel
House again, and is still in Quay's room.
Among the possibilities is, that he will
consent to so much OF a revision OF the
slate as places Wolfe on it and takes Dick
off. Dick and his friends threaten to carry
their fight before the convention if this is
done.
HAmIsEcRG, May "A call is issued for
a general caucus of delegates at 3 o clock to-
morrow, but other CaucuSes will he held
meanwhile. Senator Blair is not here yet,
nor is Wolfe. Chris. Magee arrived this
afternoon, together with some Philadelphia
delegates, including District Attorney Ora

WASHINGTON, May 9.-The government,
that is the President and Cabinet, have been
enjoying the hospitality of James Gordon
Bennett, to-day, taking a trip down the
river on his yacht.
In the Senate the Tariff Commission Bill
was passed without amendment, and now
goes to the President for his signature,
which will undoubtedly be given at an ear
ly day, and for the time being this much
yexed question will be taken out of the
political arena. --
Already speculation is rife as to who will
constitute the Commission. Ex-Secretary
Kirkwood, ex-senator Eaton, ID. A. Wells,
Charles S. Hill and others are named. The
first three are well known to the public.
Mr.. Hill is the Statistician OF the State De-
partment, and has made tariffhis life study.
He edits the monthly Consular reports
published by the Department of State.
1t is understood that the Ways and
Means Committee will soon resume the
consideration of the Mckinley bill, fixing
rates Of duty on articles adjudged by the
Treasury officials to be manufactures of
iron and steel mot otherwise provided
for" Several of the iron and steel manu-
facturerS Of the country have been con-
