Bandits Caught on Train

OAKLAND, April 6.-Henry Smith,
alias David Edwards, the wounded
bandit who fed from Sacramento this
afternoon, and his young pal, Archie
Reardon, were captured at First street
and Broadway on a Southern Pacific
train at 4 o'clock this afternoon by
Captain of Detectives Petersen and a
posse. The train was surrounded as it
drew into Broadway station and Peter
sen and Inspector Lynch entered the
car.
Reardon and Smith sat in a seat at
the rear end. The officers took them
by surprise, threw handouts on Rear
don's wrists and promptly cowed Smith,
the more dangerous of the, two.
Wounded as he was. Smith sat bolt up
right and denied that he was fugitive.
You're wounded said Captain
Petersen.
Il am not wounded" replied Smith,
and stood on his feet without wincing.
The policemen knew he was playing his
last bluff, and on examining him found
a bullet wound in his right calf and
one in his right thigh, both received
from behind. So weak was Smith from
loss of blood that he had to be rushed
to the receiving hospital.
The robbers fled from Sacramento in
an automobile and sped II miles to
Floren. reaching there barely in time
to take a train for Oakland.
Smith was born in Oakland 40 years
ago and his parents live in West Oak
land. For several months he had a
barber shop at Eleventh and Franklin
streets. He was sent to San Quentin
January l6, 1903, from San Francisco
for burglary and served seven years
Later he was again sent to the peni-
tentiary. Reardon is less than 80 years
old.
Captain Petersen believes that Smith
committed bold crime at Stockton q
few days ago and wore some of the
stolen underwear when arrested.
