EUREKA, Cal., April 8. The ox
' plolts of Willie Clark, 16, the boy
bandit of California, aa he is known
to police officers, far outshines the
wildest dreams of the enterprising
young authors who wrhe the nickel
thriller libraries.
With more than 20 state, county,
municipal and federal charges against
him, Willie is still at large today af
ter his latest escape from the Hum
boldt county jail yesterday, after
boasting to deputy sheriffs that he
would get out of any cell they put
him' In.
(After escaping, Willie, 'according
to the statements of witnesses, went
to. the offices of the Northwestern
Pacific railroad and looted the office
safe. By the time the job was well
under way the city police had been
Bummoned. Willie Immediately de
camped through a rear window and
after exchanging half a dozen shots
with the arms of the law, hid himself
in a lumber yard.
After dark he slipped out past the
men who were searching the lumber
yard and boarded a freight train
which carried him to Fields Landing,
several miles south of here. Railroad
police discovered him there and sur
rounded the car on which he was rirl-
iug.
He stayed there for some time and
late today a posse of some 20 men
arrived from Eureka to attempt to
capture him. By the time they got
there Willie had slipped into the car.
The sheriff held up the white flag
long enough to talk to Willie to per
suade him to surrender. Willie had a
gun and told fhe sheriff what he
thought of him.
As the armistice was ended the
sheriff spread his men around the car
and said that h would wait for Willie
to get hungry. Another attempt at a
conference will be made in the morn-
