Calmly smoking a cigarette" and re clining at ease John Casey, the young Goldsboro man who is now confined in Craven county jail in default of a 5w bond for breaking into and ste ling long list of valuable articles W lile - a he was employed as baggage m iter on the Norfolk-Touthern Railroad, fester- day narrated to a Journal repo cer the full particulars in regard to se jral of the thef ts. Casey said that before he ha taken the' position with the road in the capac ity of baggage master, he had fi try de cided that thereafter his life w -uld be one of luxury in many ways. I e had been informed by his predecesa r that hundreds of dollars worth of v luable articles could be secured from .runks each month without the least - ear of detection, and that he had s pplied himself with a bunch of keys f r this purpose. j During the first few weeks t at he wbs on the road, he discovered t at W. J. Cooper, who was also enga ed as baggage master on the same rot !, was doing about as much stealing as ve was doing. Then the two held a co sulfa ion and decided to "whack up' with each Other, or in other words, to 3quai ly divide their spoils. Thia, Casi y said was frequently done, but he en phati- caliy denied having ever seen an ' jew lry of any description and f urth 'more stated that he was almost certaii that no jewelry hnd been stolen by r s co partner in crime. Clothing of i II de scription seems to have been the hob by, tha prisoner even claimed tc have on a pair of silk hose which 1 3 said we.etakea from a trunk enroi to tu Morehead City. - He told of tal ng a camera from one trunk, acd npor find ing that it had the owner's nam em bossed opoirthe handle he placet it ir. another trunk and took theref om i arger and more expensive one. Many of these stolen articles he disposed ot at rediculously low prices while other were taken to his home and placed in his trunk. The prisoner jeems to think that but for the fact that Cooper became ecared and told all he knew in regaids to the matter to the , detectives that they would both now be free of any charge, and for this reason is very bitter in his denunciation of him. However he h-is an unfailing helief that he will get oui of the trouble within a short while and will be set at liberty. But from the present appearance of the case, getting out of jail and being released from cus tody will not be such an easy matter as he thinks, Both of the young men will be given a preliminary hearing before Justice of the Peace S.

Washington, AogSch.-The chanc es are thit before th9 thing i settled there will be a lively interchange of 'Wyre'araiQTtffiiti to have the caucus run on the wide open plan so that newspaper men can be present, if not people genera'ly, having seats in the galleries of the House of Representatives.':-'; ' ' ;;' - I f So far the idea has hot been advanced that the public galleries shall be thrown open, but some of the Congressmen who do not approve f the open caucus have ben telling it around that it will come to that if the movement is not nipped in the bud. 'y ' The late Senator James B. Beck, of Kentucky and he was rated as one of the ablest men who ever served in Con stress, having been the distinguished leader of the Democrats used, to de clare that executive sessions of the Senate were not ia keeping "with the pirit of American institutions and in sisted right along that, except in time of war or threatened war and to con jider "treaties the doors. of the Senate should hot be closed to thftpdblic. He claimed that it was only on rare occasions that it shot Id be necessary to close the doors and k ep the people of the country .in the dank as to what the Senators were doing. What the Republicans in Congress ire afraid of is that, since Democratic leader Underwood hat declared iu favor of the open caucus, it is likely to be adopted by the party now in control of the House, and if so, it will not only d prive them of oppoi tunity to whack he Democrats for running things in caucus, but they fear the sentiment will be so strong through the country bat they will have t follow suit. - It has been a pretty well established fact that the most unjust and infamous legislation ever enacted at Washington was hatched up in secret conferences. and the talk m Democratic circles is that the light must be turned on in fu ture.

If the man had fallen frum a passing boat his absence would have been noted and inquiries made, The body was in such a decomposed con dition that it was almost impossible for he coroner to ascertain whether the deceased had been murd- rd, but the majority of people hold to the former theory that he fell from a boat and was drowned.
