GREAT NORTHERN TRAIN ROB
Der ARRESTED
Detectives Claim Man In Custody One
of Two Who Successfully Robbed
the Messenger in a Recent
Daylight Raid

SEATTLE, March 22.-After a search
lasting nearly two years detectives in
the employ of the prosecuting attor-
ney's office have arrested one man and
have warrants for the arrest of another
on the charge of robbing a Great
Northern express car in 1908. The man
arrested is Richard Howley, formerly
an employe of the Tacoma Eastern rail-
road, who was captured by detectives
Sunday night.
With the warrant for Howley, one
was issued for Fred Alexander, sus-
pected of being the other man in the
case.
The holdup, which netted the robbers
more than $4,000, was one of the most
daring that was ever attempted in the
Pacific northwest. 1t occurred shortly
after o'clock in the morning of May
12 190S Just after the train had pulled
out of the King street station INTO the
tunnel that runs under the business
section of the city
Two men entered the express car just
after the train left the station, and
seizing Express Messenger j. Z. Per-
rine, beat him to helplessness with his
own revolver as he leaned over the
strong box, bound and gagged him and
robbed him of more than $4,000 before
the train emerged from the long tunnel.
Last night the Great Northern EX-
press company sent a messenger from
st. Paul, offering the detectives who
arrested Howley a reward of $4,000 for
conviction.
