West Side Saloon Shooting Ends in Death in Chicago
Four or five gunmen entered a West Side Chicago saloon Sunday and opened fire killing Abraham Rubin and wounding four others. The attack was linked to dispatches over an insult to the sister of lightweight boxer William Sallor Friedman. Friedman planned to surrender to police to give his account. One wounded, Charles Hadsman, is alleged to have insulted Dora Greenburg, Friedman's sister, as authorities consider gangland bootlegger tensions as a possible motive.
