DIED IN STREET.

SEQUEL TO FIGHT.

A running fight between two gangs of men was described at the Central Magistracy yesterday when Mr. T. M. Hazelrigg, Assistant Crown Solietor, prosecuted in the case in which a Chineso is charged with murder, the possession of a dagger and with wounding to prevent op prehension. The enso is a sequel to n fight which occurred in the early hours of Sopt. 5 in the neighbour hand. the Western Market.

Mr. F. H. Loschy appeared for the defence."

Outlining the case, Mr. Hazolrigg said the fight took place between groups of men, and in the course of it two men, were killed, the defon- dant being charged with their mur- dez.

At the time the murdera took placo the streets in the vicinity of the market were crowded with pedes trins and fruit and vegetable vendors, but of the large number of people who saw the fight, the Police had only managed to find six who could give any relative ovidence Of these only three suw any part of the fight itself.

It appeared that the two groups af men ran down On Tai street and then,jeto Newmarket street. Eves tually the two gangs came to blows and after a fight they split up again and aune into conflict again near. the market.

In the earlier fight a, minn had been stabbed and in the recond conflict another ran was stabbed after arming himself with a chopper. Ho tried to strike a blow and fell down doad.

Dead on Market Steps

A remaining man of the original pursuing group, went into On Tai street and the man who followed him died

the on the steps of market. A policeman had seen these two men running along and gave chase. He followed a man alleged to be the defendant.on to the Praya where the constable was held up by a dagger. He was not armed owing to the fact that He was on search duty and the man bé was pursuing ran on again with the constable still giving chase.

The man was oventually arrest- ed after he had been struck with a bamboo pole, but not before he had stabbed a policeman in the wrist with a dagger"

When the police returned to the Western Market they found one body on the steps of the market and another at the corner of On Tai street! n.

the latter was a chopper with which, witnesses would say he had been armed. Mr. Hazelrigg said the motive was obscure, and there was no evidence to show how the fight started: The prosecution would call twenty witnesses, the majority of these being formal
