Letter from Charles J. Bonaparte to N. M. Ruick

Attorney General Bonaparte rebukes United States District Attorney Ruick for his telegram that is a “surprise, embarrassment and regret” to the Department of Justice. Ruick has not followed the directions of President Roosevelt or the department in the case against Senator William Edgar Borah and is no longer reliable. Because of this, the trial will be turned over to special counsel.
