Monday afternoon II. l.. Tickner. OF
Wells. Fargo & Co.. at Carson. received
a dispatch tros, San Francisco. from
detective Hume. stating that he had ar
rested NJ. Sharp. the survivor Of the
brace Of fooipaIs who robbed the Bodie
stage on the night of September 4. The
Carson dPped! says: When Mr.. Hume
reached Carson soon after the robbery.
o the first thing he did was to order
the release Of the man Anderson, sup
posed at the time to be an assistant Of
fthe robbers. Mr. Hume. after Tue stion.
ing the man, was satisfied that he vas
not Mcpherson wanted. His theory was
that the two men who robbed the stage
on tho six different occasions were two
California road agents who had been n
long time in the business. After reach
ing Carson Hume went to the scene of
the robbery and dug up the corpse.
He searched the pockets of the dead
mans clothing. Here BIO discovered
important clues, the nature of which he
kept to himself and started for San
Francisco. saying to tho Wells Fargo
agent here that he would have the man
within n week. He knew from what he
found on the body of the lead man that
Sharp was the party wanted.
He watched several days for Sharp,
and finally spotted a valise ct the Mar
ket street depot NAKED with Shnrp's
name. This he Swallowed, and ycs,cr-
day arrested Sharp at his lodgings. The
prisoner made nc resi- stance. and was
lodged in Jail until u requisition could
be forwarded.
In the valise Hume found 81, 0 Of
the stolen money, a gold watch taken
from Shaw, the commercial drummer on
The Sth OF June, and u revolver taken
from the stage on September 4th. The
revolver vas being sent G. o. ID. to a
man in Candelaria. The contents of
the valiso are fully identified AMI the
case against the prisoner is u strong
one. Hume's theories regarding the
matter were comhat,ed from the FIRST by
other parties. The capture of Sharp
was al excellent piece of detective
work. He will be brought to Carson in
u day or two.
