INSANE SOLDIER
Shot And Almost Killed The
Brdtal Gouernor
■ OF 11 SOLDIER'S HOME.
Brief Review of Charges
Against Gov. Smith.
Santa Monica, Cal., Sept. 29.
—While Gov. Smith of the Pa
cific branch of the National Sol
diers’ Home, near this place,
was coming to his headquarters
today Albert G. Bradley, who
has been an inmate of the home
for five years, came up behind
him and shot at him five times,
one ball taking effect under the
right shoulder blade, one above
tne right hip and one through
the right arm.
The surgeons think the wounds
are not fatal. There is no exter
nal bleeding, but fears of inter
nal injury are entertained. At
times Bradley has acted strange
ly and it was supposed he was
mentally unsound. The governor
is resting easy. Bradley was ar
rested.
Charges against Gov. Smith
that led to an investigation were
principally mistreatment of the
old soldiers. It was said that be
confined men in the insane
wards of the hospitals without
previous examination by the
surgeons ; that he maintained a
police system cruel in the ex
treme, and that he forced men
to take good treatment for
drunkenness against their wills.
Col. Sidney Cooke, of Her
rington, Kan., the local manager
testified that he had ordered
Gov. Smith to discharge the
brutal police officers and to
cease the custom of forcin' the 1
soldiers to take a cure for drunk
enness. The order, he says, had!
been disobeyed.
Later, Col. Cooke stated that
their pensions had been with
held from them by order of the
governor and against the law. He
had ordered this to cease and
had been obeyed. An investiga
tion of this had also been made
by ex-Governor Glick, pension
commissioner. Gov. Smith had
been let off with a reprimand.
Further charges against the]
governor of the soldiers’ home
were made, that he had abused
and iusulted the officers under
him, had caused men, carried
on government pay rolls, to do
chores about his house and had
turned government property
over to his own private use.
Before becoming governor of
the Leavenworth Home. Gov.
Smith was for three years treas
urer of the National Soldiers’
Home at Togas, Me. Charges
preferred against him there by
the governor of that home led to
his transfer in 1885 to Leaven
worth.
