FIGHT WITH GANGSTERS
TRAGIC AFFAIR IN MAINE NEW YOHK, Oct. 12 Two gangsters at Bangor, Maine, were killed and a "G. man" was wounded in a spectacular gun fight in a street, which imperilled and routed pedestrians and motorists on their way to work. The dead are Alfred Brady, accused of killing two Indiana policemen, and Clarence Shaffer, a confederate, and the "G. man" is Walter Walsh, who is in hospital wounded in the chest. The "G. men" were informed that the gangsters intended to seize ammunition from a shop and they hid in the vicinity. They surrounded the gangsters, who fired when ordered to surrender. Brady had terrorised Indiana for months in a series of robberies and murders.
