 Ii looked to me as though every , lrishman in New York was there that night. And they installed i Mahor as q 2 to l favoritc. Mahcr was called to the center ot the ring, and as he threw off his bathrobo, displaying bright green trunks. the crowd chocred. l yan<- cd off SharkeN's robe 10 show the crowd he wore q still brighter pair Of green trunks than did Mahcr The crowd settled back to root for both of them.
 With tn" championship Of Ireland q; stake, Mah"r and Sharkcy flew Ut each other. The fighting was terri fife.
 Just hoforC the end Of the first round. Mahor managed to floor Sharkcy with a terrific right to the jaw. In the fifth, Sharkey nattcn"d Mahcr, and tn" tide of the battle turned. And Tom began forging ahead.
 In the seventh round the "acc boys" who had put up the long odds, jumped into the ring claiming Shar- key had hit Peter after the gong sounded Jimmy Caldwell tho rel cree, refused to allow the claim CT foul.
 There was q general miXup. w. climbed into the ring from Shar- keys corner. Maher's seconds and towel sWingors climbed in. and soon We were moiling pile in the ring, pulling at each other, while the crowd was in an uproar
 When Referee Caldwell could make himself heard. he threw mD both arms and called the fight a draw. This, if anything, made mat terS worse, Police Inspector Mo Laughlin and his riot squad appear ed, and everybody in the ring wound up in the old Harlem police station Big Tim Sullivan heard of it, and bailod everybody out
