Tka MaraVrrr of Mayor Harrlaoa Maats BaabUn( Address la toart la Which 11 Itononneea Ilia A flor ae mud Their Insanity rira Compare Hliaarlf to hrUt ad KrorM tha Officials. Cnicioo, Feb. 2J. Jude lirentano overruled the motion for a new trial for Precdergast soil aenteiH-ed the assassin to be hanged on March 23. Aa the court addressed I'rctidergast and asked him if he had anything to say why sentence should not be parsed upon him he a rows to hi feet, tier v OUhly drew a small sheet of paper, covered with note, from hla vest pocket and addressed the court 8 follows: I don't suppose, your honor, that It will do me any good to say anything to the court now. I have made no preparation to say anything in par ticular. 1 suppose your honor is under the impression that you have done your duty. Hut this plea of in sanity has been set up by my at torneys without my consent Jtwas an infamous, adirty and a disreputable plea and done against my objections. Now aa for Juror Murray, it is cer tain to my mind that from the manner he answered questions be was anxious to be a luror in this case. There was something wrong also in regard to summoning the veniremen. Juror Larkin came here on a written state ment, but of course the defendant had no control over this part of the court's , work. The Evening News contained a whole column about it at the time and it is not necessary for me to go into it further now. We had noopnortunity to watch the pro ceedings in summoning the jurors. But this is not the question. At the very beginning of this trial the court told me my attorneys would at tend to my case. Nevertheless, they did not As stated, your honor, be fore, they set up this infamous plea of insanity against my will. Hat, your honor, the issue is, did I do right or did I do wrong? Did I do my duty or did I not? Did I do tho will of Hod or did I not? This point has never been touched upon and I say it is the only Issue before the court Of course, if I did wrong I should bo condemned. Hut, your honor, if I did right I should be justified and acquitted. As for this talk about tho Pueey or the tiuiteau case tho court all along ruled that no reference nhotild bo made to it but ho attorneys for tho defendant coninucd it throughout tho trial. As far as these doctors are eaccerned, they came to mo without my consent ana without my invita tion and I did not write them nor give my consent for them to come and find out whether I was Insane or not No doubt tho motives of these men were humane but it was through tho connivance of Jailor Morris that they got into tho jail. Now, your honor and everybody say that Harrison was a great and good man. I deny this. A good man is generally faithful to his friends, and llarrison was not. If 1 had been a good man he would not have been hostile toward mo. But this newspaper trust, your honor. Wo havo been attacked by this newspaper trust, and if the sen tence of this court is carried out you will all bo at the hands of this news paper trust No man's character or reputation will be safe. I don't know what will be the result fcven while 1 was in your county ail I was threatened with death. This man Morris, the jailer there. Batd to me: "I'll kill you before you leave this jail, no matter what the court and bailiffs do with me." The sheriff of this county is a Re publican, W'hue my principles aro Democratic and that is why this is. Hut the issue, your honor, is whether laid right or wrong. II thU court wants to shirk the responsibility in this case it will not be my fault The most of tho motions made by the attorneys for me have been overruled by the court and that was wrong. Then there is this grade crossing Issue. II your honor consents to my death, to my murder, you also con Bent to take the lives of these ut-onln on the infamous gradacroaoiiixn. That Is what caused me to shoot Harrison, although 1 had stood by him iu times Of llihtrt'M. I am feeling tmivh better now, your honor. .My health is much bettor than when I first went to jail. 1 he terrl ble food they gavo me there shook me bhvhieallv and nit-iitallv. iu this ease I have beet charged of iHiing vainglorious and a notoriety seeker. This i not true and it has been disproved la this trial. Christ wai not a vainglorious man, neither am 1.

A communication was then read from the aergeant-at-arros who had been directed to investigate the ques tion as to whether Mr. Johnson of In diana had been arrested under Mon day's warrant It stated that as a matter of fact Mr. Johnson was not arrested, and that the mistake in the return was due to an error in tran scribing. It recommended that his name be stricken from the warrant, and without objection it was so or dered. Then Mr. Ulan called up his silver . bill and the deadlock was resumed.

Oaa Will Km Called to Consider a ( banc ta the Iloaao Kulra. Vasiiixgto.v, Feb. 20 Representa tive Uolman of the Democratic caucus of the Louse will call a caucus at an early date to consider a change in the house rules by which members may be compelled to vote to make a quorum. The call is in response to a written request signed by 104 Democratic members. The request is the direct result of the uproarious demonstration in the bouse Thursday. The name of Mr. Island is not on the call, for while he is severe in depreca ting the disorder, he says public opin ion should rebuke those responsible for it, and that a change of the rules is not desirable. The New Yorkers are also an exception to the delega tions which have signed the calL They are not anxious to strengthen the rules and thus increase the chance of passage of a bill such as the one now pending. Most of those who have signed are ready to go to tho extent of counting a quorum and the only question among them is now how the quorum can be counted without subjecting the majority to tho charge of adopting what have been termed ''Reed rules." Numerous plans for strengthening the rules are under consideration. The one most generally approved is to provide that the attention of the speaker may be directed to the fact that a member is present and not voting. Thereupon the speaker may direct that the member be brought to the bar of the house and his name be recorded as present, to make a quo rum. It is said this obviates the criti cisms of "lleed rule," in the method of counting a quorum. The proposed rule would be guarded by the formality of bringing members to the bar of the house where there would be no question as to their actual presence. The feeling is so strong some Democrats are ready to accept "lleed rules' on the quorum question without any excuses or ex planation. . UNEMPLOYED CONVICTS. Nine Hundred Men in the Missouri I'rison With Nothing; to Do. Jeffkhon Citv, Mo., Feb. 20 The large number of unemployed convicts in the penitentiary is becoming a mat ter of most serious concern to the state, and to add to the dilemma the receipts of convicts aro rapidly in creasing and is now greater than ever before with no prospec tive diminution. For the last few days the total number of convicts con fined in the prison has been about 1,920. Of this number about 000 are unemployed, and the outlook for securing them employment is far from promising. The ' state is not only losing the labor of these men and incurring a cost thereby, but en forced idleness proves detrimental, both physically and mentally, to the convicts. When there is no employ ment for them they must be locked up in thair cells, and any prison man will readily say that this means ill health to the convict and possibly in sanity. lie form Press Association Onlcers. Sr. Louis, Mo., Feb. 20. The Populist organization known as the Reform Press association elected tho following oflicers: J. II. McDowell, Nashville, Tenn., president; N. A.

Congreve's Message to America' The above letter from the late emi nent preacher, C. II. Kpurgeon, is one of thousands of test imonials to the won derful curative prop erties of my Balsamic Elixir, which not only cures consump tion but gives in stant and permanent relief in cases of Aithma, Chronic Uronchitis, Influenza and all Chest affec tions. GEO. TH08.CGNGliE.K. For years I have been entreated to make my remedy known in the United States, but my time has been too much absorbed by my European patients to allow this. Now, however, I have been able to extend my organization so as to bring America within the scope of my personal observation, and my desire is to make it clear to all citizens of the United States that they may henceforth procure from my American Depot A cure for Consumption which, even in the advanced stages of that tnrri ble disease, may be used with certainty of relief. Every person suffering from Chest Disease, and all of weak lungs and delicate habit, should read my book on Consumption of the Lungs or Decline, and its successful treatment, showing that formidable disease to be curable in all its stages, with observations on Coughs, Colds, Asthma, Chronic Bronchitis; together with accounts of nearly successfully cured cases, any one of which may be like yours, to be had post free for 25 cts., or the bookTwill be sent free with every first order of $1.00 bottle of my Balsamic Elixir. CONGREVE'S BALSAMIC ELIXIR can be obtained from many drug stores, but it will take some time before it will be ir;roduced into all of them throuehout this et country. Jf your druggist has not yet put It in stock, it will be sent you, carriage paid, from my own depot, on receipt of 50 cts., $1.00, $1.75, $1.75 or $7.00, according to tha size of the bottle ordered.
