violations OF the United states postal HWs-
The first one taken up WAS that OF W. r.
Durham, eX-pOstmaster az Bestlands, Essex
county. against whom the Government
brouehta civil suit to recover about sl,5Oe
alleged 10 have been uulawiully obtained or
retained by him. The facts in the case are
those: Durham was suspected OF reporting
hrger cancellations than he really made aud
OF using stamps rs currency, and tue post
master at anolher Office near by, and through
which Durham's mail had 10 pass. was IN
si.ucted 10 Secp an account OF The number OF

was arrested on criminal warrants. His
trial resulted in his being fined $3.50 Tor

charge he was found not guilty. Civil suit
was then instituted, and he has been tired
twice. In the first trial verdict was recoY-
cred against Durham, but this was set aside
