By the Associated Press. MILWAUKEE, October 31.—An uni- dentified robber was shot to death and another probably mortally wounded by Andrew Toth, proprietor of a North Side drug store, while resisting a hold- up_yesterday. Toth was alone when robbers en- tered, demanding money. While the Tobbers’ attention was momentarily ci- verted, Toth made a dash for a wall where a loaded rifle hung on pegs. He :htdeled and fired. One robber fell ead. The second hurled a bottle at the druggist, striking him on the head. but the druggist fired again, probably fa- tally wougding the man. Toth was standing guard over the wounded man when the police arrived.
