I found there is apparently another newspaper article, "Home-Made Liquor Blamed," in the Biloxi Daily Herald Newspaper from Friday, April 17, 1925, page 2, that mentions this incident, and adds some details. The newspaper can be viewed (slightly scrambled, but free) at this web page in OCR (transcribed text) format in the small text-viewing window toward the bottom of the page:
