Gun.
DUEL IN DARK ALLEY
Policeman Finds Three Providers Back
of Armours and Scatters TEEN
With Shots, Perhaps
Woundins One.

L, w. (Buck) HURLEY, merchant
police, narrowly escaped death this
morning in a revolver battle with
three night providers in the blind
alley back OF Armour's warehouse on
South Sixth street. HURLEY shot
lat the men, and they re-
turned his fire, one bullet grazing
his cheek just below the eye While
the wound fortunately is superficial,
Hurlhey's narrow escape from death
is shown by the close proximity of
the bullet to vital point.
According to the report from Night
Captain Park, HURLEY was patrolling
his district this morning at 2:30
o'clock, and was coming up the alley
between Fifth and Sixth streets, and
between Main and Johnson. In this
alley, back of the Armour plant which
is at the corner of Sixth and Johnson
streets, there is a blind passageway.
AS he threw his light down this
way, HURLEY saw three crouching
figures He started for them. and
they separated and ran. In trying to
halt them HURLEY fired. His shots
were returned. and one bullet grazed
his cheek. HURLEY kept on after
the men, but lost them in the merit
block Altogether, eight to ten shots
were fired by both sides.
The men are described as being
small men, two of them wearing caps.
They were white men, according to
Hurlhey's description Nothing was
broken into, but it is believed that
the men may have had an idea of
breaking into Arrnour's warehouse or
some of the stores in that vicinity.
HURLEY thinks he wounded one of
the trio.
