REED IS THREATENED.
The Speaker Has Received a Number
of Anonymous Letters.

WASHINGTON, June 3.-Speaker Reed
like every other public man in high Of
fetal station. has received threatening
letters from time to time but has never
paid any attention to them. Yesterday,
however one was received of such
nature that it seemed to command more
than ordinary attention and the speak
er's private secretary without Mr. Reed s
knowledge turned it over to the police
who after investigation have come to
the conclusion that it was not written
by a crank, but by some one desirous
of perpetrating a hoax for sensational
purposes.
While following the speaker home, the
detectives observed a man whom they
knew and whom they suspected was
the writer 1t was found that he had
given information amout the letters to
newspaper correspondents and had call
ed at police headquarters but in the
absence of a warrant, they refrained
from taking him into custody. Police
Inspector HOlGnberger conferred with
District Attorney Davis and concluded
that there was no law covering ths
case. The writer accordingly viii not
be arrested. Sending threatenin lang
uage written on an envelope or on a
postal card is illegal, but sending such
an enclosed letter is not This issue
arose in the last administration when
threatening mail was sent TO Mr.. Cleve-
postal card being sent to the last
named. For using the card, the Of
fender served Is months in prison in
Baltimore.
