George D. Huston, Omaha taxi
driver, is dead, and Gene Holbrook
and Pat Berkeley are in the Saun-

whisky and returned Sunday night
with another car.
In the meantime Sheriff Temple
ton learned of the affair and To-
Gated the hidden liquor and with the
Home Guards was awaiting the re-
turn of the bootleggers. When the
sheriff called upon them to surren-
der they replied with volley of
shots, which were returned by the
sheriff and guards.
Huston was killed instantly and
Holbrook and Berkeley surrendered.
Neither of the other bootleggers
was injured nor were any of the Of
hcials.
Holbrook and Berkeley were re.
Gently arrested in Omaha in connec.
