 SHOOT AT WOMAN IN FRENCH CHATEAU

Cannes, France, Jan. IA further daring attempt at assassination was made last night by the criminals known as the Phantom Bandits" who are infesting the country dis tricts around Cannes. They fired two shots through a window of a large villa in the suburbs of Banguin, be- longing to a prominent Parisian bank CT, and the bullets just missed two women seated at tables.
 EAe bandits then disappeared and no further trace of them was discov- cred, although the trail swarmed with detectives especially detailed. The terror inspired by these mysterious night outrages of the criminals who recently killed one farmer and shot at another has attained such pro portions that nothing will induce the peasants to leave their homes after dark.
 Doors and windows have been heav- fly barricaded everywhere in the vii cinfty and the prevailing fear is spreading even among the foreign visitors in this winter resort. The peace authorities believe the bandits form a part Of a gang that terrorized the district for years and whose op- erations were stopped about g. year ago by the arrest of several of their leaders who are now awaiting trial.
