your statement that your remarks we're
in no sense and in no particular intended
FOR publication nor considered as an inter-
view 1t is for this reason that it takes
no other action than this emphatic repri-
mand, the receipt of which you will ac-
knowledge. Yours respe ,-fl.ly,
JOHN d. LONG, Secretary.
TO Captain F. E. Chadwick, U. s. N,
No. IS West Ninth Street, New York"
This statement was furnished by the
Navy Department in connection with the
correspondence:
The former matter referred to In the
Secretary's letter to Captain Chadwick
was the latter's putting into the hands Of
a newspaper correspondent on board the
U. S. S. New York, the campaign despatch
es which passed between the Navy De-
partment and Admiral Sampson. 1t seems
that the correspondent, without authority
or knowledge OF Captain Chadwick, copied
these dispatches and was about to publish
them in magazine. The Department
learned of this fact and of he probable
premature publication through unofficial
sources and in a way to favor one pub
Usher. 1t was obliged, therefore. in order
to meet the case. to hastily collect all the
dispatches from its own files as lar as
possible, and give them to the press at
large, Whlch 1t did"
The fact that the letter of reprimand
was made public is regarded in naval cir
cies as an additional punishment. IN tire
case OF Captain Coghlan, of the Raleigh,
rebuked for reciting the satirical poem
Hoch der Kaiser" which gave offence to
the German Government, the letter of rep
rimand was not made public. Should
Captain Chadwick feel that he has been
treated unfairly by the Navy Department
the only course open to him to obtain re-
dress is to ask for trial by court-martial.
On account of his admission that he made |
to the newspaper representative substan-
tally the statement attributed to him in |
the interview, the case has gone beyond |
The stage where Captain Chadwick would |
Dc justified in asking for court of en-
JURY. A request from him for a court
martial would probably be granted, |
although il is within the discretion of the |
Department to refuse it

SEWALL SENT TO JAIL.
Hearing Results in His Being Held
in CONTEMPT of Court

William Sewall was yesterday ordered
committed to the District jail by
Justice Cole for three ana half days for
contempt of court. The prisoner was a
member of the jury which heard the case
OF Frank Turner and six others, all COL
ored, who were indicted for committing a
criminal assault on Dora Linkins in July
last. The trial, which ended on last Fri
day morning, resulted in the members fail
ing to agree upon a verdict 1t was al
legged that during the progress of the
trial, while several police officers were
testifying, the juror said to fellow juror
in the box: Il would not believe those
witnesses on OATH He is also said to
have remarked. in an impatient and dis
respectful manner, while Attorney Semmes
was making his closing argument to the
jury, that what he was saying was '.all
rot"
Sewall was represented by Attorneys
Lemuel Fugitt and ". Preston Williamson
In an affidavit of defence the respondent
contended that Prosecuting Attorney
Semmes, in his address TO the jury, at
tempted to excite their prejudices and
draw the color line. There was only two
colored men on the jury One of these
was Sewall, but very few were aware of
the fact that he is not a white man. Sc
wan Sldttu III HIS dmuaNlI t0at IN address,
ing the jury Mr.. Semmes said: This
woman is of your own flesh and blood"
to this Sewall objected, and claimed that
1t was drawing the color line. Mrs. Lin
kins being white and all the defendants
colored.
Justice Cole, in discussing this phase of
the matter, stated that he had no recol-
lection, nor did he believe, that Mr.
semmes made any such remark; he fur
.her stated that his experience with Mr..
'emmes proved to him that he had always
been very careful In his conduct of the
prosecutions In which he took part and
lie could not believe that he would be |
guilty OF such conduct
Sewali asked permission to make a |
'tatement. He said that he had no recoI- |
ection OF making the remarks attributed |
o him. This. he said. was no doubt due |
o his mental condition on the day of the |
rial On that day. he stated, he was |
very much with a severe head |

The View Grand Next Week.

An opportunity to hear Camille D'Ar-
vile, the world-famous comic opera prima
donna, will be afforded patrons of the new
Grand next week. This season is Miss
DArville's first in polite vaudeville, and
by right of her fame, beauty, and vocal
genius she stands at the head of all the
stellar attractions in this new sphere Of
refined entertainment. Certain it is that
not excepting Pauline Hall and Cissie
Lotus, Miss D'Arvilles popularity eX-
ceeds that OF any other vaudeville star,
and the artistic character of her work,
aside from her personal charm Of face and
form, places her in a prominent position.
No chronicling of Miss D'ArvilIe's tri-
umphs as the leading prima donna of the
past decade is needed for those who heard
her as Maid Marian in Robin Hood with
the Bostonians. She invested that charm
ing role with beauty and voice all her
own. and her success in it has never been
euualed Miss D'Arville's selections next
week cover the whole range Of her Won
derful voice and comprise popular songs
as well as more classic numbers. Another
remarkable feature OF the bill next week
will be Baby Luna, the child artistic,
who sings character songs with costume
changes. The other-six notable acts ell
gagged are the famous Three Onris, Jug
glers and equllibrists; Prof. Macart's ag-
gregation of dog and monkey comedians,
