NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Harry Lin. der, a telegraph operator employed by the Postal Telegraph and Cable Company, was arrested today charg- ed with stealing the news service of the Associated Press Association and selling it to minor press bureaus which were thus able to secure the benefits of the news gathered at big expense by the big American Associa- tion and in many cases as quickly as the Association itself received the news.

 Several other arrests are expected today.
