Spauldins High Quintet Ran Away from
Newport High, ~ to rs.

The Spaulding high school basket bail
team easily defeated the Newport high
school team last evening, Al to 20, and
won its fourth straight victory since
the opening OF the season. Spaulding
excelled in basket throwing but was
weak at times in keeping their men COW
cred and Newport had many easy tries
for the basket which they made good.
The pace set by the snappy local team
was too fast for the visitors, however,
and in the last period they plainly
showed the signs OF being "all i'm
Maiden did the star work for Spauld-
ing in basket throwing, making eight
baskets from the floor, while Grigg and
Cummings were close seconds with five
ind four baskets respectively. The re.
mainder OF the locals scores were made
by Capt. Ayerill, who shot two baskets
from the floor and six fouls. The scor-
ing for Newport was done by Reed, Flint
and Mitchell, Reed getting five baskets
from the floor. Buck the visitors right
guard, who is brother Of the Buck
who was member Of the Goddard
champion team last winter, also played
a strong defensive game. The first peri
cd ended 10 to IL in favor Of the locals,
and the second "a 60 II, the visitors
being baldy outclassed after the first
inning
The best of feeling prevailed between
the players throughout the game and
the good plays on either side were ap-
plauded literally. The Newport team
brought no official with them and played
the game in an exceptionally gentle
manly manner, and though many fouls
were called on them by referee-umpirc
Mercer for holding, they did not register

DESPERATE
ENCOUNTER
Murderer Stood Off Police
Long Time
TIL RIDDLED WITH LEAD
Strange Battle in Street at Lawrence,
Mass. To-day in Which Philip
Koury Was Arrayed Against
Many Officers.

Lawrence, Mass, Jan. 23.-Thousands
Of people to-day watched battle be-
tween tho police and failip Koury, a
Syrian, who had fatally wounded man
and injured policeman, and saw the
battle opd only when the beleaguered
mans body had been riddled with bull
lsts and there was no more fight in him.
Karan Behandomey was the man who
was fatally injured by Keury, and Wal
ter A. Chandler was the policeman who
got a bullet in the arm from Koury's
weapon.
The fracas which started the trouble
occurred shortly after midnight, when
Koury ran amuck. Behandomey was
shot in the abdomen and in the chest.
Having done this and flourishing two re-
volvers, Koury fed, taking refuge in
house at the corner Of Pine and Elm
street, which was soon surrounded with
police. The disturbance attracted great
crowds OF people, who stood In the
street and watched the attempts of the
police to dislodge the fugitive.
First the police tried to smoke Koury
cdt with the use Of fumigator, but
failing in that they decided to wait until
morning. The house was surrounded BY
police, SO that there would be no chance
for the man to escape, and when day
light came they charged. Hundreds OF
shots were fired by them, and Koury re-
sponded for while. Then Policeman
Wadin climbed ladder into the house
and found Koury's body shot to pieces.
His legs and body were riddled as ii
by gattling gun. Strangely enough,
not a bullet had struck his head. Po.
lieeman Chandler was wounded during
the charge, but his injury is not con.
Eidered serious.
