BRADY, Ten, Aug. 1.-THE other day
registered letter put in the bags at this
place failed to reach the next postofllce,
which is Camp san Saba, though the no.
tice of said letter reached the Camp, This
created some suspicion in the mind of
the postmaster at Camp San Saba, and
thinking, perhaps, that the postmaster at
Brady had failed to place the letter in the
bags, he came to ascertain If such was
not the case, but learned that the letter
had actually been sent The letter then
had been taken from the bags between
this place and Camp San Saba. This
gave the officers a clew and they soon
learned that the mail carrier, Il
youth about seventeen years of
age, whose name is Jim Dcmarrow,
had cndeavored and finally did get $40
bin changed at Camp San Saba, and had
explained that he was getting it for Il
man by the name of White, who owed
him dollar out of the twenty. The
officers interviewed Mr.. White, and Mr..
White knew nothing OF It, They learned
that the letter lost had $50 in il. They
then got the hoy into room and queS-
1 toned him so closely that he acknowl-
edged 10 the taking OF the $50, and he
returned something over Sl7, having
spent the remainder. He said That the
/ leather around one of the brads was
/ broken so that the brad would come
through and by cutting the leather
around from another of the brads he was
enabled TO push his hand through anc
get the letter out. He took only
the registered letter with the $40
in 1t, while there was another In the bag
containing $40, and II is said that the boy
knew the fact. by pushing the brad'
through again no one could tell, without
4 close inspection, that the bags had beet
tempered with, and thus IL was that i
was few DAYS before the crime was
fixed The hoy says he was induced t'
take the money because another carrier
had asked why he did not take registered
letters, at the same time telling him tina
when he carried the mail he had frequent
" taken registered letters and had ncvc
been caught The boy has some sympa
