WASHINOTOH , D. O.1 , October 14.
Guiteau was arrignod this morning
Ho was taken from the jail to cour
in tho.Blttck Maria without , any nlis
turbance. After'the indictment hat
b dur.read.Guitenu skcd to bo allowe <
to make a statoinunt , but Judge Cox
Baid Hfwould bo' out of 'ploco. Gin
term's counsel then entered a plea o
not guilty. ' District Attorney Cork
hill asked that the trial bu sot 'dowt
fornextMonday. Mr. Scovillo , counse
for defonso.8aid B fair.irial coulll mo
bo had ifit , occurred next week. He
should-neod al leasi thirty days to .
nccessary-witnesaes for tlie defense.
Ho elaimed , the right to get the same
number of witnesses for- the dufeusr
that the government had , (44) ( ) , and
that the state should pay for thorn.
He wanted a number of witnesses in
the 'first place to prove Guitoau's
insanity. He expected to
provo by exports and long life
acquaintances that the defendant
V was of an imtano lineage and was
irresponsible at the time of the act al
leged. He also expected to provo by
Dra. Hammond , , Sim's and others that
the wound alleged to have boon in-
wan not necessarily fatal , but
made BO by malpractice. Ho
also desired time to get counsel to as
eist him.
Colonel /jorkhill argued that the
c-inrtTiad no HghTto promise to pay
the expenses of any experts or other
witnesses than to pr6ve the alleged
insanity. Ho said the gov
ernment was willing to attord
all. just righto for the defense , but
had no right to order summoned wit
nesses beyond a radius of one hun
dred miles. The district attorney said
ho desired the court to definitely de
termine the day of the trial and make
it as soon us possible. Hu also asked
that tlio question of jurisdiction bo
argued before the day of trial. Then
followed a long discussion
of what was tailed by the dufenso a
legal right of a penniless defense to
have witnesses biimmonod. Justice
Cox said hu fully appreciated the cir
cumstances of thu defense , and ho
thought that tlr ; time most , convenient
for all partio3 would bo on Monday ,
the 7th of November , and that day
was fixed. It was decided that the
question ol jurisdiction should bo
argued October 30th.
George Scovillo , attorney for Gui
tcau , his brother-in-law , then asked
for'timo to obtain proof of insanity.
Ho presented afliduritH , , in which he
gavu the linu of tlio defense which ho
said would lbo. mainly two , insanity
and modioal malpractice , ' , lfi'hoAlatter
jWas unexpected and made somewhat
of a sensation. Ho desired , thirty
days delay and an opportunity to call
the same number nf witnesses as the
government On the question of in-
canity ho proposed .to call among
otherd tlio following witnessesFrench
Uromloy and FrancisScovillo
should toitify that Fivthor
Guitenu , 'tho father of the prisoner ,
was H monomaniac on the subject of
religion Homo yous ; Eyorcttl'ox , Do
ver Mius. , who saw the shooting und
heard Guitoiu use words which show
ed uniristnblu insanity. On the sub
ject cf malpractice ho proposed to
bunimon Urn. Hammond and Sims-
of Now Yoik , and Drs. Andrew and
Gnnn , of Chicago. Mr. Scovillo , on
behalf of Gniteau , plodded with thu
, xc > urt for moru limo and for money
'or expemu'Q under the federal statute
to obtuin testimony. His linu of de
fense , hpivuvor , IH to ho somewhat dif
ferent from what has bcon expected
mid from what in fact ho has himself
stated heretofore. * He had said be
fore , for instance , that hu should
only plead insanity , but now ho indi
cates that ho shall also
attempt to defeat on the ground of
malpractice. Ho also proposes to
test the question of jurisdiction. Mr.
Kcovillo'ntdppcd this plea to hold a
conforunco with Guiteau. Thu latter
talked with him 'iu ' u most rational
may'ner , District Attorney rkliilJ
opposed thu delay asked for by Gui-
teau's counsel and mid the -Jaw was
voiy liberal with persons charged with
erimo , so liberal us too often to defeat -
feat the ends nf jualicu. Ho demand-

and that the report had boon suppress

The senator said the writer waa very
much mistaken in supposing thit ; h
had requested or desired thu supproa

of the treasury under his. udmiuiatra

Ho desired thu resolution adopted.
Senator Edmunds said that in the

To fult justified in asking that it li

ing P.iniull'h arrest , TltoHciahl says :
"Itas to bo ii'grettud that Gladstone
should have felt the necessity of ar
resting a inembur of parliament and
tlitiH excite sympathy for a movement
whichhas deigned to war upon prop-
city : m an expedient to niisn money. "
The Tribune cays : "Thn imprison-
montof so popular nn agitator under
such circumstances may bu fraught
with momentous consequences. Glad
stone hot ) taken an enor
mous risk in making the arrest.
Parnoll is far , more powerful
than O'Coniioll ab his best , and the
arrest looks like a desperate choice
between abandoning the land act out
right nnd confessing the absolute fail
ure of the crown iin managing Irish
all'airs and arresting the great ob
structionist to secure thu success in a
fair trial of a doubtful policy
Thu World Buys ; "liu | arrest can
surprise no ono but Puniull himself.
Purnoll and his friends permitted
Davitt and ether patriots to bo cist
into dungeons without mi attempt to
liberate them , and ho V-onld not ex
pect Irishmen to spend thuir bloud
ami treasure to liberate him. "
The Sun BI H : The arrcxt of I'm null

This arrest has but added to the

deliberate purpose of thugovernment ,
to niiiash the machinery of this organ
ization and drive the people to de
struction , but jnan succeeds mnii as
fast as dangers open and close. Men
of America do not fcnr England' act
of armed biutality. It will but recoil
upon her. Ono other cable advices
inform UH that thu democratic
confederation of Great Britain
has called for mass meetings
in London and elsewhere to denounce
tlio government of Gladstone and that
tlio radical clubs of England are hold-
