7. That Mr. Bedloe's moral character was bad.
Mr. Bedloe was suspended and the Consul General at
Shanghai was directed to investigate the charges. In spite
of Bedloe's denials, most of the charges were found to be
well founded. Minister Conger urged that under no circum-
stances should Mr. Bedloe be reinstated at Canton. After con-
sideration of the Consul General's report, Mr. Bedloe was
ordered home and allowed to resign.
His office was found to be in a most disorderly
condition, and it was reported to the Department that his
reputation along the Chinese coast was very bad.
