Train Robber in Gambling Feud Shot in Oklahoma
Oklahoma City October 1 Willis Newton a member of the Newton gang once linked to the Milwaukee Road train robbery near Chicago in 1924 was shot at his home by an assailant or assailants. Newton who survived a long prison term and ran two night clubs was wounded in the shoulder and said he did not know who tried to kill him. Police found an empty cartridge from a German Luger outside the house and detective sergeant Hedepath identified Newton as a member of the family blamed in the Chicago heist. The shooting may be tied to a gambling feud rather than the old rails robbery, with uncollected loot valued at about 75000 dollars. His nephew Joe was in the house. Newton recalled past crimes and hinted at solving the mystery later.
