Only Five Jurors Obtained Out of the Firot Panel Drawn. Guitoau'o Statenien tOnly the Mutto rings of a Crazy Bruin. No Reason Assigned for the Disagreement Between Scovilloaud Rob inson. Tlio Panel of Jurors Exlmnitcd A New Panel Ordered- National Associated 1'rcnti , WASHINHTO.V. Novoiubcr 14. Soon aftur daylight this morning n great crowd be an to gather about the dia- trict court houue , all anxious to pob a gliinpao of the assassin Guitcnu , wluiso trial was to bcciii ; at 10 a. in. For hours they waited. At length the court room doors were opened. As many as could bo accommodated with Bcata tvero adinittml nnd the others stood near by in hopeless anxiety. The prisoner was brought down from the jail this time in thn police van , but BO quietly that scarcely any one but the ofiicers knew it. Every seat in the court room was filled except four and all available 8tindin < : room. The audience wns composed for the most part of members of the District bar , witnesses and members of the press. Not more than half a dozen ladies had gained admission to the court room. .Next to the three or four vacant seats referred to Bat Lawyer Scovillo , his wife , who IB Guitoau's sister , Guiteau's brother and Lawyer Robinson , liis chief counsel. At 10:05 : a. in. there waa n rn tr nu.ir the northwest en trance , , : md the marshal entered , followed by two oillcers , between whom was tlio prisoner. Guiteau wai dressed in a suit of dark clothes whicl liis brother presented yesterday. H < took a seat by his sister , Mr. Robin ion on the other side , the ollicers ea behind him , and one of them leaning > ver unfastened the culls ftom Gui : eau's wrist. The prisoner then shooli mmld with his brother and sister , landed the latter n small pamplilei and package of paper , nnd thei arranged the articles on the able before him rather is if ho had been con use lion accused. Ho appeared mucl nore collected than wh m first irraigned and had nothing of the tightened look that marked him nt hat timo. When all was quiet Mr. lobinaon addressed the court asking or more time buforo the trial. lie aid ho had reason to know that ho : ould get needed assistance as counsel before long and that ho had some wit- lossess who could not get there bu- bre December 1st. Ho was willing o give thu court thu names of said vitnoases. As Mr. Hobinson sat dovn juitoau arose and said , "if your honor iloase , I desire to nddress the court. " lis niannor was calm nnd business iko. People roje to their feet nil over the room , but thoru was no dis- .urbunce. He wont on : "I did not enow that my counsel was ready to lake his speech this morning. 1 do- ire to speak for myself. 1 am here n a murderous charqo , and I desiree o bo heard iu my defense , " "Tina is tot the time to enter upon the de- en o , " said Judge Cox , quietly ; "it H only a question whether more time s needed for preparing the defense. " It is not needed , " eaid Guitoau , ' 'wo TO ready to go on with thocano now. " < h : Itobineon smiled at this and asked uiteau to sit down. The primmer kid , "You keep still , " but ho did nit own , muttering an ho did BO , "Wo ro ready to go nhoad now. " Col. orkhill Bnid ho saw no reason why le time should bo ' extended. Air. lobinaon made an utlidavit thnt th : ole ground on which he asked delay as in order to got the necessary wit- esses and counsel. Ho s id ho was > ractic.illy alonu in thu caio nnd lecded some one. There was dovul- ipod nn evident split between Messrs. covillo and KobniRon. Mr Scovillo , ddressing the court , said that Mr. .pbiiiBon'n application was made ithout his knowledge , which was ertainly a strange proceeding , niiico 10 hud not oven st'un the ailidavit nor leard nhat connsul liopud to get. 1'Vir iis part ho was ready to go on with 10 trial. Hu know ho w.-w incompu- out to go ahead without ns.imtancu to 10 ublo to proceed , Kvun now ho loped to 1)0 of Homo ( isaintatico to Mr. .obinaon , but if ho was to so on in iis wiy ho ( Kuuville ) should with- raw , Hero Guiteau jumped to his out and Haiti in un excited lanner : "I cii'lorsu ovury word ho ays , "Itobinson camu into this cauo itliout consulting mo and I don't iku the way he talks. I order him iereiuptorily to withdraw from thu caao. " Mr. Hobinson renewed his application. Mr. Scovillo claimed that the niwir rclativo.i of the prisoner should at least know who was expected to como for the dofanao. Guitoau rx ain interrupted , "Wo don't want Hobhtsun , anyway. Thin is peremptory and ho must go. " Mr , Scovillo wont on : "If wo have timoonough wo could get counsel , nnd plenty without monoj , but if Ilio court is going to givu us time , and nt thu eamo time na.titjn connaol , I don't ' ngreo with it. " With this Gut- lean jumped up again , rapping the tables with his knuckles. Ho said , "Mr. Scimllo is next to mo in this caip. I intend to do this busiiuias myself. Robinson is not wanted. " The ollicers turned to keep him quiet , but ho told them' to mind their own business. Ho wns in the presence of the court , nnd would talk when ho foil like it. Col. Corkhill asked the court to try to keep the prisoner quiet , whereupon Guiteau sut down saying ho would do whatever the court wished him. After that ho was comparatively ipuiot. Judge Cox then said lie was inclined to givu the defense n little more timo. llo intends that the prisoner shall Imvo nt least u fnir trial , but ho thought it would perhaps bu bettor to allow the caao to proceed so far ns tlio selection of u jury , leaving - ing it for counsel to iirrnngo for him n futtmi continuance , and for addi tional counsel Mr. Scovillo said it should bo understood that ho should not even question n jury until ho know exactly who was to bo asso- ciatud with him and Mr. Robinson in the defense. The court naid no onu couldbcassigned without Mr. Scovillo'n consent. Jlr. Scovillo nnd Mr. Hob- inson both expressed thcmselvon n.s satisfied with this arrangement , nnd the jury panel was then taken up. The court explained that it was wrong interpretation of the law to de mand on such a jury only these per sons who had formed nn opinion The only absolutely disqualified per sons were these who Have formed an opinion that could not bo changed by any evidence whatever. The first four of the jury panel stated distinctly and finally that they had opinions which no evidence could change and they were au'jedily ex cused. The fifth Kocnicd all right until asked if ho had any scruples us to capital punishment , llo Hinilod a ho answered in the allirmativo nnd Bcumud glad to get out of it. The sixth thought ho could give n verdict in ac cordance with the evidence , although ho had repeatedly said ho should hang the prisoner. This man was in the hardware business. Mr. Scovillo said the juror was not wanted. The nox man was a mechanic. Ho had nc opinion not very decided though h could give a fair verdict. Mr. Sco villo naked as to his politics nnd rolig ion. Judge Porter , of the prosecution , objected. Mr. Scovillo said ho desired sired to know something of th < jurors' conscience before knowing whether ho might cierciao the right to a peremptory challenge. That was all ho was driving at. Ho was willing to let that question rest until hi could present authorities. Thii man was AVilliam P. O'Donnoll and in his case the dofenao made their first peremptory challenge. Th eighth waa excused because ho hole firmly to the opinion formed shortly after the shooting. The ninth mat was John Hamlin , a well known res tauranterof Washington. Honnsworci' all questions satisfactorily , some as to whether ho held to any infidel belief. John A. Vnnduaon seemed qualified unless in thnt he had a sort of preju dice against insanity. On this ground the defense ordered their third per emptory challenge. Hiram Trimblo the next manor the panel said ho never allowed himself to be influenced by newspapers. He investigated things for himself nnd was satisfied that Guiteau did the shoot ing but as not to whether ho wns guilty of murder. Col. Corkhill said lie was too much of an inrcatigator for this trial and he waa excused. This exhausted thu panel. An order was issued for a. now pane ! of 7o citizens. At this point Guiteau arose nnd stated that he should like to make a speech to-morrow morning. The court told him ho would bo given a chance to bo heard in his own de fense. Guitoau "But thnt must'go in now your honor , as it must influence public opinion. " The Court "That's not what wo jro hero for. " Col. Corkhill said ho hoped thu : ourt would insist on thu prisoner iooping still. Guiteau "Never , Colonel I know ny business and I hopoyou do yours. " Ho was finally quieted by the officers jut ho managed to got his written ipuech into tlio hands of n reporter vho started for the door. Mr. jcovillo had the reporter .stopped and ho paper was not given out with the onsent of counsel. P1VK JUltOUS OlITAINKli , In the Guiteau trial to-day livu urors were obtained and sworn in.
