accidental, that a warrant for his arrest
is to be issued. Two safes were blown
open in the postofice within four
months by burglars. The postmaster is
o. N. hanson. He had been talking
abe ut buying safe to take the place of
those shattered, and on November 8 he
told Lucas to write to his firm for a
lower figure. This Lucas did and the
price was set at $63, that is 800 with 30
per cent and the charges off. A letter
from Cincinnati to Lucas was delivered
to him November 10. 1t had been
opened. There was some talk that
Samuel Cowles, a postoffice clerk, had
opened it, but Mr. Lamson afterwards
asserted that he opened it himself by
mistake. He refused to take the safe.
Lucas wrote to Inspector Barrio at Mer-
iden about the matter, but before Barrie
could take action be died. That was in
November. Lucas then wrote to Post
master General Wanamaker and the
letter was then turned over to Inspector
