IN A MIDNIGHT HOLD-UP
JOE GANGNER SHOT BY MASKED MEN
IN THE NORTH STAR SALOON.
Local Talent Did the Job-Of the Two
Maskers One IL Locked Up and
the Other IL Known.

AT O'Clock this morning a daring
attempt at a hold-up was made in Ana
conda. the scene OF the crime being the
North Star saloon. at the corner of
Chestnut and Fourth streets. The
place is the property of Alderman
Frederick Gangner and. last night. as
usual. his brother. Joseph Gangner.
partner in the house. was on shift.
At the hour named. several people
were in the place. when II was entered
by two masked men who In the regu-
lation form. demanded that every man
present throw up his hands. An in
stant later a shot was fired by one Of
the masked men and. IN the confusion
that ensued. two other shots were
heard. One Of these hit Joseph Gangner
under the arm and in the side.
Fortunately. on this occasion. the
crowd in the place. some members of
IL. at least. were as cool. II not
a good deal cooler than the attacking
party. The man who fired the shot
was seized and overpowered. Alderman

taking a lively part in the assault. The
man proved to be Joe Sullivan. a
young fellow well known in Anaconda.
Joe Gangner received prompt atten-
tion. but he showed no signs Of being
dangerously wounded. Accompanied
by friends he was able to walk to his
home I'm the immediate neighborhood.
No. 414 Chestnut street.
Meanwhile those I'm the saloon
had disarmed Sullivan. and they didn't
do a thing to him except to sweep up
the whole place with him.
While all this was going on. a boy
rushed In police headquarters and
shouted that they were trying to kill
somebody" up on Chestnut street. on
GERS Fingel and McMasters FASTENED to
the place and when they reached the
North Star saloon Sullivan was an un-
masked wreck. used up by the drub-
bing he had received and stretch

was taken to police headquarters and
locked up.
Unfortunately. in the excitement. Sui

however. and the police feel confident
that he will soon be behind the bars.
Sullivan Is about 81 years old. He
has lived in Anaconda several years
and his parents reside here. The po-
lice give him a reputation for being |
pretty wild. Doctors spelman and |
Leiser were summoned to attend Joe
Gangner. and at an early hour this
they succeeded in removing
he bullet. which was extracted from
he patients back. Gangner was in
shape at 3 o'clock this
and the physicians do not at
present anticipate serious results.
