A P0STMASTER'S FOLLY.
Edward P. Bogert, Of Wilkesbarre,
Disgraces Himself.
he TAMPERED WITH THE MAIL.

Caught With Open Letters Addressed
to Prominent Business Men, He Was
Arrested and Furnished Bail For
His Appearance Later.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, March 10.-Edward
r. Bogert, postmaster Of Wilkesbarre,
was arrested yesterday, charged with
tampering 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, or that which they received
bore evidence Of having been opened by
a steaming process. The postal authori.
ties subsequently detailed two secret
service men on the case. Wednesday
night Bogert entered the Office and was
seen to take several letters from the
boxes and then go into his private office
and carefully draw down n curtain. A
few minutes later detective, who was
acting as clerk, turned out an electric
light in the rear end of the office, this
being the signal to two other secret
service men who were stationed outside.
The man on the inside carefully admit.
ted his associates, one Of whom was In
spector German. The two men went at
once to Bogert's private Office, and. with.
out the ceremony of knocking entered
and there found the postmaster seated at
his desk, on which lay three letters ad.
dressed to prominent business men Of
this city, and all of them opened. The
postmaster was taken before United
States Commissioner Gustav Hahn,
where he gave bail in $4,000 for appear
ance later.
Mr. Bogert is editor of the The Even
ing Leader. He would not be interview
ed, but in his paper appeared the follow.
ing:
There are always two sides to a ques-
ton, and when there are three or four
fellows, and one or two in particular,
clamoring for a political Office and hun.
CRY for the emoluments attached thereto,
there are sure to be schemes worked and
plans formed to entrap the incumbent,
cause his removal and punish him other
wise, even il nothing further than the
annoyance and chagrin that accomplish
ment Of their devilish underhand work
imposes. When the diabolical schemers
are fully shown up, and their nefa rious
trickery exposed, there is a question as
to which side will furnish the raciest
reading"
The inference to be drawn from the
above Is that Bogert imagined himself
| the victim Of conspiracy to Gust him
from the postmastership, and in order
to discover the conspiratOrs he opened
letters addressed to Republican poll

DID NOT. ASK SUPPORT.
Italy Did Not Want Our Aid in Sc
curing q Port in China.
OUR GOVERNMENT WAS NOTIFIED

In Order That the Italian Government
Should Know whether There Would
BE Any objection, andw Informed
of Our DISTINGUISHED Neutrality.
Washington March 1O.-The Italian
government, through Its representatives
In Washington, lately laid before tho
authorities here its purpose to ask OF
China a port on San-Mun bay, and In
yited IN expression from this govern
ment as to Its attitude. In response 1t
IL understood that Secretary Hay, as
well as the president, made 1t clear that
the United States would pursue the same
course as toward the Russian, British
and German occupation Of Chinese ports,
namely, disinterested neutrality. The
exchanges have been verbal and rather
Informal, more in the nature Of diplo.
matte soundings than direct propositions.
They have given occasion to erroneous
publications to the effect that Italy had
asked the United States to support her
demands on China and that this govern
ment, In a pointed note from Secretary
Hay, had refused. 1t is said In an
eminent and authoritative quarter that
Italy made no such request for Ameri-
can support, and that there was no
declination from this government. The
circumstances of the negotiations as ex-
planned In this authoritative quarter are
as follows:
When Italy determined to seek port
on the Chinese coast she addressed those
powers having large interests In China,
notifying them Of her purpose. Owing
to the good will between Italy and this
country, a. well az the American inter.
est in China, q notification was presented
to the state department here. While
Italy Is said to have had no desire
through this notification to enlist the sup
port Of the United States, she was de-
sirous of pursuing the usual diplomatic
course when a move Of this character Is
contemplated, namely, learn whether the
United States would be favorable, disin-
terested or opposed. In short, before
proceeding Italy desired to know what
attitude the United States would take
as to the Italian demand on China.
The reply of Secretary Hay. which Is
said to have been verbal, was in re-
Spouse to this notification and soundings
from the Italian authorities. In this
reply the president is said to have given
his personal concurrence. In substance
It was an announcement that the Uni
ted States would in no way change the
attitude 1t had maintained thus far
when Great Britain, Germany and Rus
STA made advances toward China.
Instead of being denial Of any re-
quest the reply was accepted by the ltai.
ian government as entirely satisfactory
and as placing 1t in the same position a.
other European powers who had sought
ports In China. This, 1t is said, brings
the negotiations at Washington to
close in manner entirely satisfactory
to the Italian authorities.
