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.
