Gunner Fire Into
2 West City Homes

Benton. Ill.,, Nov. l2.-tAP)--
Unidentified gunner, believed by
Franklin county officers to have
been members Of the Burger boot
leg gang, early today fired into
two homes at West City, near
here, in the neighbcrhood formerly
frequented by the rival Shelton
gangsters. No one was wounded.
Shortly afterwards, Carl and
Bernie Shelton were arrested in
Benton by postal officers and TAX
en- eastward by train, presumably
to Danville.
The assailants fired from sew
eral automobiles into the home of
Mrs. Mary Loughran. a widow,
whose house is next to that OF
Mayor Joe Adams. an admitted
friend of the Shcltons. and into the
home of Gus Adams, a brother of
the mayor. The three houses are
on adjoining lots.
Machine Guns Used
Twenty-six machine gun and
other bullet holes were counted in

house, but were mistaken as to its
location. After one fusillade, the
aangsters speeded away.

mayors home, were driven out OF
