ILLINOIS EDITORS IN DUEL
FEuD AT ROCK ISLAND ENDS IN
SHOOTING.
w. w. WiImerton Slightly Wounds
John Looney in Exchange Of
Bullets on Street.

Rock Island, ILL.,, Feb. CIV. w.
Wilmerton, owner Of the Tri-City Jour.
nal, and John Looney, owner of the
Rock Island News, exchanged seven
shots across street at each. other yes.
terday. Looney was slightly wounded
Both men were arrested.
The shooting was the result of per-
sonal feud which has been carried on
in print. The feud reached climax
when Looney published a bitter attack
on Wilmerton and the members OF his
family last Saturday, The men met
yesterday for the first time since, and
they opened fire at sight. Each says
the other was the aggressor.
Wilmerton and Looney were released
under $1,000 bond each ON charge Of
assault with intent to kill.
The shooting took place in front of
the Journal office. Wilmerton stood
in the Office door, while Looney took
refuge behind a telephone pole. Looney
emptied his revolver, walked down the
street, reloaded and was on the way
back when the police intercepted him.
He walked to the station without Civ.
ing up his pistol. His wound, which is
in the abdomen, is not serious.
WilmertOn, who says he was I'M
armed when Looney first shot at him,
fired twice and then retreated into his
Office.
The men first quarreled a year ago
over the ownership of the Rock Island
News, in which both were then inter-
ested. Wilmerton finally got control
of the News; but, before he took pos
session, a stick OF dynamite was ex-
ploded in the News press, wrecking it
and endangering the lives of several
persons sleeping in the building. Viii
merton changed the name of the paper
to the Tri-cfty Morning Journal and re-
moved to new quarters.
In the last year there have been
three fires in Looney's building, the
last one damaging It and adjoining
property, causing a total loss of $780,
900. The fires were evidently incen-
diary, but like the blowing up of the
press, no clew has been found to the
perpetrator.
Three weeks ago Looney began pub
lication of weekly paper under the
name of the Rock Island News, in
which he attacked Wilmerton and his
family.

THE LOCAL TEAM WINS
0skaloosa High School Defeats
Newton Organization.

Before large crowd at the Penn
College Gymnasium Friday evening
the basket BAH five of the oskaloosa
high school defeated the Newton
high school basket bah team by the
score OF 50 TO "a. The game was one
sided from start 10 finish, the locals
putting up great game, while the
visitors showed that they had played
little basket ball. The work OF the
oskaloosa high school team was a
surprise to their supporters. In past
contests they have been unable TO
throw baskets and guard their OPP
ponents, but last night they were all
in fine trim and If they had displayed
the same kind of playing in previous
contests they would now have a
clean record. Their team work was
excellent and they would have the bail
down the field and In the basket before
the visitors could turn aroun
The game started off witt a squirt,
Farrell throwing a pretty basket after
few seconds play. BY their clever
team work Oskaloosa had massed
eight scores before the visitors Sc
cured a free throw. The score at the
end of the first half was "a TO 10 in
favor OF the locals and not throughout
the game was the score of the visitors
threatening. lu,
The game was very rough, Oskaloosa
playing much harder game than their
opponents. The o. H. S. lads all play
ed star game and it would not be
justice to give any one player more
credit than another. However, Far
rell and O'Brien excelled at throwing
baskets; Cadwallader's WORK at center
was great, playing all around Cam
mack, while Dodds' and Russells
work at guards was sensational, hold
ing their men to a small score. Stock
mans work at forward for the visl-
tors was good. He made most of
Newton's points. The lineup of the
two teams was as follows:
