MOONEY WON GAME
 IN A FAST FINISH
HAD GOOD TEAM WORK AND WERE HEAVIER THAN BIRMiNG- HAM BoYs-REFEREE MOORE PLAYED FAvoRITEs.

The Birmingham Athletic club team was defeated by the Mooney college basketball team last night by a. score of 2S to Is. The game was fast from start to finish, and there was much pretty playing, but the superior weight team work and the referee won the game for Mooney. The latter was a strong factor. His name is Moore and he halls from Mooney. He showed little discretion in judging fowls, and the Birmingham boys got decidedly the worst of 1t by two to one.
 During the first half Birmingham play ed the Mooney boys to a standstill, keep ing them on the defensive all the time, but the hard efforts told on them and in the last half they were played off their feet. Stone, the center for Mooney, showed remarkable ability making goals, both from the field and full line, and was whole team in himself.
 The score was as follows:
 Birmingham
 Chairsel, right forward 2 goals.
 F. Jones, left forward 3 field goals and foul goals.
 Ware, center, no goals.
 B. Jones, left guard, no goals.
 Riddle, right guard, no goals.

Would Nod Testify for Brother.

Chicago, March Paul Niedermeir, brother of Peter one of the car barn bandits now on trial, today refused to testify for his brother. It was an- nounced that Paul Neidermeir and Mrs. Niedermeir, the mother of the two boys, would testify that at the time the car barn murders were com m- ted Peter Niedermeir was at home in bed. The refusal of Paul to testify today caused the alibi to fall fiat, and the cases of Niedermeir and Gustave Marx will go to the jury without per son having testified in their behalf. The case will go to the jury next week. No plea of hereditary insanity will be considered.
