REV. MR. CRAIG
CALLS HIS ARREST
GREAT INJUSTICE
Declares the Mail Order Busi-

ested Quite Legitimate.

ST was never more humiliated in my
life," said the Rev. John w. Craig to
an EVENING STAR reporter in New
York today. He had been arrested here
yesterday by Sergeants Tuite and Hor-
ter, acting in conjunction with the
postal authorities.
my arrest" said the minister, was
the outcome of an overzealous set of
officials, and I am convinced that they
acted before they had properly investi-
gated"
The Rev. Mr.. Craig, who says that
he Is an Episcopalian clergyman, is as
sociated with the Rogers Silverware
Company, whose offices are at ia Fifth
avenue, New York city. He had charge
of the Newark branch of the concern,
whose business consisted seemingly of
sending out an exceedingly simple
puzzle and offering to all who solved
it a set of four heavily plated pieces of
silverware. The replies which poured
into the local office were answered
promptly, the writer's being told that
If they cared to call at the company's s
office they would be presented with the
set free; otherwise they could send
81 35 for packing and shipping. The fact
from Western States aroused the sus-
picions of the authorities. The arrest
followed Mr.. Craig proved his inno-
cence to the satisfaction of Postoffice
Inspector Enteman. and the police and
he was released.
When seen by THE EVENING STAR
reporter at the company's New York
office today, Mr.. Craig felt very much
hurt at the episode. He said that for
thirty years he had been a pastor and
preacher; in fact had spent the major
portion of his life In doing goed for
others, even depriving himself and fam
lily of many little luxuries.
He finally came to the conclusion that
he owed it to himself and family to
make some money. and. having formed
an acquaintance with Robert M. Rog-
ers, who suggested partnership In his
mail-order business. he investigated
thoroughly and became so convinced of
the legality of the business that he in
vested s2,500.
Craig says his firm buys up an enor-
nous quantity of stock design plated
ware and sells 1t at cost in order to
get the public acquainted with his
company. its methods and it's reliability
When asked If he would resume
business In Newark he said he doubted
IT; that If the authorities didn't want
him he did not want to come here.
He stated further that his object in
giving orders for all mail addressed to
the Rogers Silverware Company at this
postoffice should be returned, was to
convince everyone of his sincerity
'"rhis will not, however, establish
precedent" said Mr.. Craig. "it was
merely simple method of quieting
everybody. but should other postoffices
follow tire lead of the Newark Office
we should be compelled to fight as our
business Is perfectly open and above
board in every particular and Is in
no way illegal"
