THE ASSASSIN.
Garfie1d's Murderer Nearing His
End
HIS GALLOWS SPEECH READY FOR
DELIVERY.
THE ASSASSIN.

WASHINGTON. June 26.-Rev. DIR. Hicks,
Guiteaus spiritual adviser, says that after he
had informed the assassin OF the decision OF
the Cabinet, Guiteau took q well thumbed
copy of the Bible from the table, and said: 81
wish you to take this book, when 1 am dead,
and keep it in your study as a memento Of a
man who was executed for having obeyed the
Divine command 1t is all have to give, but
l trust that you will take it and sometimes
think of the man with whom you have held SO
many conversations on religious subjects"
Guiteau does not propose to lose any oDpor-
tunities and has already prepared his gallows
speech. 1t is of considerable length, and a
gentleman to whom it has been submitted pro-
nounces it an extraordinary production. It is
of the same general character as the frothy
various stages of his case. He expects to de-
liver it with good courage before the fatal mo-
ment, and is so anxious that it should be given
accurately to the press that he had copies
made for the press agencies.
in an interview this afternoon, Rev. DIR
Hicks, Guiteau's spiritual adviser, denied the
reports that had been made Of his active efforts
to secure reprieve for his charge. He said
he had done nothing but simply hear the per
sonal requests of the prisoner, which he did
continuously. He considers himself no expert
on the subject of insanity, but believes Gui-
teau is as sincere as it is possible for a man to
be. He looks upon him as a religious mono
maniacg or fanatic, and says he will go TO the
scaffold as firmly in his faith az was Martin
Luther when called before the Diet of Worms.
There are being received at the Jail a large
number OF applications for admission to the
execution, many of them from distance. The
marshal, himself, in speaking of the matter,
says that those who have no business at the
Jail will not be admitted TO the execution. Tho
arrangements are not entirely made, but IL is
certain that no one but limited number of
people will be admitted.
