JAN1ToR ARRESTED
Frank Hancock Held on Embedding
 Mail Charge.

Frank T. Hancock, the janitor at the New Haven postofice, was arrested yesterday morning while at his work and is now held in s1 bonds by United States Commissioner William A. Wright to answer to the charge of embedding mail from the postoffice.
 The specific charge against Hancock is taking a letter containing sixty cents addressed to the Gamble-Desmond com- pany, mailed last Tuesday. This letter which was a decoy, never reached the dry goods firm. While suspicion has rested upon Hancock for several weeks nothing developed to warrant his ar rest until yesterday morning, when he was seen gathering up an armtul ol waste paper and boxes on the floor o1 the postoffice near the punch stand. He was followed by Assistant Postmaster Futile down into the basement and ar examination revealed a bundle of let ters. When pressed for an explanation Hancock denied that he was stealing and said he must have picked up tho letters with waste on the floor.
 Postmaster Howarth was then sent for and the facts were presented tc him. He went immediately to Commis. sioner Wright and explained that fol seven months, at least, he had been re- ceiving complaints of the loss of let ters, many of which contained money The decoy letter was dropped in the mail last Tuesday, and it's cours, through the office was followed closely but in spite of the vigilance of thu postoffice officials the letter wen astray. It never got to the Gamble Desmond company. Since then the loss les have been increasing, and when Hancock was found with the bundle of letters yesterday morning the post master decided to act A warrant fol Hancock's arrest was issued,
 Hancock is sixty-five years of agt and lives in Yalesville He was ap pointed janitor of the postof1ice by the late John w. Mix seven years ago when MT. Mix was collector of GUS toms. Hancock is a member and pas commander of Merriam post, G. A. R., of Meriden, and is we'll known among the members of the Grand Army ir this city He has a wife, who Is al invalid, and several children who ar, grown up.
 With the arrest of Hancock, Post. master Howarth made a statemen from which it appears that Hancocl may not be tn eonly one involved ii the thefts. The investigation did no cease with the arrest of Hancock ant secret service men may be called in tc help out In it.
