Policeman And Gambler FIGHT

Last night about eleven O'Clock one
OF our day policemen went in to the Mon
te Carlo gambling house in the ten
derloin district and was looking for
NARROW, better known to the public as
Craps" The cause of his hunting
for the gambler was, he said, for the
way he had been cursing the police
epithets which Craps had used didn t
fit him and he was not going to stand
it.
The policeman who was on the war
path was John Taylor and he found his
man behind the roulette wheel. The
game at the time of Taylor's entrance,
so the bystanders say, was quite large,
as there were some mining men who had
quite pile of chips, and for q little
while Taylor stood around in front of
the table. When standing there, one
OF the miners says, Taylor said to him,
81 wish that l had that -
- in front of this table, and I would
show him something"
After waiting awhile Taylor finally
called the gambler and told him that
he wanted to see him. When the man
came around from behind the table,
Taylor said to him, 81 can do you any
time" The gambler didn't want to
fight and said so. Then the policeman
said, 'If you will come out in
the yard 1 will do you now. p"
Then the gambler told him it
was unfair as he was too heavy man
for him to fight. The police man said.
81 don't need any gun either" The
gambler told him that he WASH t
thinking about his gun: he meant with
his fists. After telling Taylor this he
started to go back around the table
when Taylor made a swing at him with
his fists and caught him on the jaw.
This knocked the gambler down over
q chair.
Taylor then got near NARROW and
was hitting him in the back of the
head and neck as the proprietor came
up to the com batants. AS Taylor
was leaning over NARROW. hitting him,
the proprietor took Tsylor's gun away
from him.
Here the whole fight changed. The
gambler made an upper cut and caught
Taylor in the stomach. The punch
was such stiff one that it made the
officer straighten up, and when he did
so the gambler clinched him
and in same way threw him
down on the floor. They both
fell between the stools fixed in the
floor for the players to sit 90, and some
one said to take "Craps" off, but the
proprietor and others said to let them
alone, which they did until Taylor
commenced to cry enough, 'nough,
'nough." Then they pulled the gam
bier off. T.
Taylor was pretty badly beaten up
about the face The reporter tried to
interview Taylor but he could not be
seen.
The gambler NARROW, better known
as Craps" WAS seen by the reporter
story was about the same as that
above told by one of the onloOkers,
with the exception of the
origin of the affair. He said it was not
for cursing the police force, as he had
always tended to his own business and
let theirs alone. but that the trouble
arose over a woman of the tenderlOin

houses. They also leave the flesh to its
wicked courses.
