Two in Sunday Battle New York, June 12.—F crowd of forty men who were ng into a id to have attacked them while they were | battering down the door of an alleged gambling house in Dean street, near Buffalo avenue, Brooklyn, detectives vesterday shot and seriously wounded | two men, who were taken to St. Mary’s | hospital. A third man, also said to have been one of those who attacked ! detectives, was thrown down a ! flight of stairs and received a fracture of the skull. The house in Dean street had been under surveillance for a week. Yester- | day afternoon the raiding squad, con- sisting of Detectives Cantwell Dungate of the vice squad and a detail of policemen from the Atlantic avenue station, forced their way through the front door and ascending the stairs to another door on the second floor, be- | hind which the suspected gamblers | were assembled. Those within refused door when commanded to do so } detectives, who, they said late rushed by the crowd as they sm the lock. One of the men in the place tried to jump out of a wincdow, but was prevented by a companion. The detectives drew their revolvers | and ordered the men to surrender, | it was alleged, several | ons in the rear | of the room. Interpreting this as an | attack upon them, the two detectives returned the fire, shooting point-blank | at the persons blocking the doorway. All but the three men at once retreat- ed into the room. All of those injured are residents of Brooklyn. They are William Bailey, 27 years old, of 598 Herkimer street, who was shot through the right arm and side; Robert Ransom, 27 years old, of 216 Chauncey street, shot through the back of the head, and Alan Kane, 30 years old, of 1,818 Dean street, who was found unconscious at the foot of the stairs. The three were hurried to St. Mary’s hospital where Ransom and Kane later were said to be in a serious con- dition. All of the men, however, are expected to recover. Three others were arrested on charge of being common gamblers. They were William Scott, William Simpson, and Henry Moore, who said they lived in the house where the raid took place. They were arraigned before Magistrate Reynolds in the Gates avenue court, and held in $200 bail for further ex- amination. Detectiv told new to open the 7 the Cantwell and Dungate aper reporters that they felt justified in firing at the crowd after having been attacked. They wer enot able to tell who started the shooting, except that the men were in the rear of the crowd.
