her trial or arraignment in court, be
rigidly excluded from all visitors, and
even her son and nurse will be denied

Jail by Sheriff Barry, directing him to
deny all people the privilege of see

in direct opposition to an order of

at any time to see Mrs. Chadwick.

Refuses to Make Statement
+ About noon press representative waa
admitted to the matron's quarters, where
Mrs. Chadwick is. She was sitting or
couch with silkep robe thrown across
her lap, and was resting her chin in her
hand, picture Of mingled despair and
anger. The prisoner did not present tina
trim appearance she has heretofore.
Her features showed the traces of anx-
iety and the nervous tension she has
been under, while her eyes flashed with
spirit as she saw her visitor approach.
"Who gave you permission to come
here?" she demanded, before a ques-
ton had been asked. She was an
gered over something, and refused to
discuss any topic whatever. She was
told that the promised statement sha
was to make was anxiously awaited BY
the people of Cleveland, as well as other
parts of the country, and the public in
terestin the case was again pressed upon
her, but she maintained the spirit of re-
sentiment against everybody, and es-
pecially the newspapers for printing the
interview that President Beckwith had
with her Thursday. Finally Mrs. Chad.

During the conversation her nurse

the enraged woman.
