UINTAH FREIGHT CONFLICT.
Ashley Coop. May Take the As
phaltum Contract.
Especial Correspondence.)

Price. March S.-ReDorts continue to
come in of outrages committed along the
Price and Vernal road by the union
freight haulers against those who have
loaded the past few days with ore COM
ing this way. Harnesses have been cut,
wagon tops removed and thrown into the
river. and numerous other acts of intim-
idation.
There is a report in circulation here,
and generally beieved, that the Gibson
AsDhaltum company IS about 10 let n
contract for the hauling of its product
from the mines on the strip to the
Ashley Coop. company, of which Senator
Bennion IS manager. and that the latter
viii employ Indian freighters from the
reservations to bring the product in. The
Indians. it is said, are in debt to Ben
MONS store and can be paid in merchan-
disc. The st. Louis company pays so
cents for the haul in, and the Coop. could
utilize the red men in taking back sup
plies for the Ashley valley merchants at
a rate less than that now paid the union
freighters. When seen by a Herald cor
respondent Mr.. a. j. Lee, general west
ern agent for the company at Price, would
not deny or confirm the story, stating in
positive terms, however, that when his
company was in need of ore it would have
no trouble in getting it delivered in Price.
The company has 600 tons in the ware
house here. enough for ali present de-
malds.

POSTMASTER OPENED LETTERS
WILKEsBARRE OFFICIAL WAS
CAUGHT IN THE ACT.
Is Prominent In Business and Po-
litical Circles and His Arrest
Caused Big Sensation.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, March 9.-Edward
f. Bogart, postmaster of Wilkesbarre,
was arrested today, charged with tam
pering with the United States mails.
About two months ago several COM
plants were lodged with the postal au-
thorities at Washington that mail was
disappearing, and that received bore
evidence Of having been opened by a
steaming process. The postal authorl-
ties subsequently detailed two secret
service men on the case, under orders
of Inspector German. Last night, af-
ter the mail from Baltimore and Wash
ingtOn arrived and had been diStrib-
uted, Bogart entered the office and was
seen to take several letters from the
boxes and then go into his private Of
fee and carefully draw the curtain. A
few minutes later detective. who was
acting as a clerk, turned out an cleo
tric light in the rear end of the office,
this being a signal to two other secret
service men, who were stationed out
side.
The man on the inside carefully adj
mitted his associates, one Of whom was
Hugh German. The two men went at
once to Bogart's private office and,
without the ceremony of knocking, en-
tered. and there fcuEd the postmaster

letters, addressed to prominent men in
this city, and all of them opened. The
postmaster was surprised, and not a
little excited for a few moments, but
soon recovered his composure. He was
later escorted to his home by the Sc
cret service men, where warrant for
his arrest was subsequently served. He
was taken before United States Com
missioner Hahn, where he gave bail
for appearance later.
Mr.. Bogart, besides being editor of
the Evening Leader of this city, is a
member of a large number of lodges,
and for the past ten or twelve years
has been an active member of the
baseball association: a brother of the
late Joseph K. Bogart, gentleman
who was prominent in Democratic
county and state politics, and at the
time of his death was postmaster.
The news of the arrest created big
sensation, especially in political cir

practicing medicine without state
license, was held before Justice Knowles

cuted and George Q. Rich defended. The

against DR.. Phillips, says he gave him
off the stand, and as Larsen was the
states witness, they could not impeach

The trial was quito lively one. Dr.
Phillips taking the position that he had
a right to indulge in the philanthropic
practice of medicine. and remarked that
if that was prohibited by law. then d
your laws" He denied holding himself
out as a practitioner. but admitted quite
an extensive practice in WellSVille and
vicinity, claiming that all this practice
was warranted by the emergency clause
IL the medical law. The case is probably
sisted in prdcticing medicine. but he re-
fuses to take out a license, claiming that
Dr. Orrsby. who is a member of the
beard of examiners is prejudiced against
him. DR.. Ormsby denies this and offers to
retire from the board during DR.. Phillips

it. Phillips. who is now teaching school,
says he doesn't desire to practice, and
hence won't try to get a license.
