Show NEWS ARTICLES 1 ITE1ENCE I Harlem Magistrate Tells Police- fl men a Few Things When They H Try to Arrest Fighters. H MAL0NEY CANNOT SHOW H SAME CLASS AS MOORE S Charles Bnrkhardt, of Fitzsim- jH mons Type of Physique, ijH Latest "Hope." jjfl BY JEFF THOMPSON. H By Leased Wire to The Tribune. IH NEW YORK, March 11. "If you or any other policemen come before me requesting warrants for boxing club of- flclals when you have no other evidence '11 than newspaper clippings, I will adjudge you guilty of disorderly conduct and give you vl term ln the workhouse." said Magistrate Murphy to Policemen Laffer- JH ty and De Mllto in Harlem court, when iliH thoy asked for warrants for the arrest nrH of the managers and participants of the Ri'H Knockout Brown and One-Round Hosan RiiH bout. Tho policemen appeared before SlH tho magistrate nnd asked the court to KliiH read a newspaper report of the bout and fijH Isbuo warrants. Magistrate Murphy ijvH flushed with anger and, pushing the clip- ilrH ping back, said; luiH "This thing is becoming farcical. How ISH can you expect me to issue warrants on (rlH such evidence as this? When 1 and oth- If er magistrates rofuse to entertain such StH complaints ln coses of this kind you po- niH llcemen go back to the station houses irH and report that we havo turned you it! down! Notes are then made out on the liH blotters showing that the applications tllH for the Warrants were rejected, but no K'l cause is mentioned." RH Malonoy Is Gam'o. It is unpleasant to charge a defeat up il to a clever and willing little fighter like Tommy Maloney, but I am compelled to IH do it as tho result of Ills battle with tH Pal Moore at the Olympic A. C. it went jH the limit, ten rounds, and Moore won decisively. The victor at times did not extend RH himself as he could have, and this en- RH abled his sturdy little opponent to make f'H a better showing than ho would have Ijll had the Quaker City boy cut loose as he I'l can when Ik desires. Rl It was simply class and experience HH pitted against gamoncss and willingness. f Moore Is too clever, too much of a ring I general and too fast for Malonoy. ( Tho clubhouse was packed to 3Uffo- f cation and not many of sportsdom's ce- I lebrltlcs were missing. Among the spec- Wl tators I noticed Danny Morgan, mana- lH ger for Knockout Brown; Billy Gibson lil was also an interested witness. Dow- 11 ling's Square Table club occupied a sec- ftl tlon of the choice reserved ringside seats. Membors of that Broadway organlza- il tlon whom I noticed there were Tommy "Pulliam. the turfite, Jess Smith and Heine Raefel. lM Maloncy's friends gave him a rousing iH ovation aa ho entered the ring. What i jH noise they did not make cheering and jH shouting they made up for by tooting ! 1 fish horns. The management put a ban on the horns, however, and announced 'M that if they were brought into play dur-lng dur-lng the battlo the referee would at once stop tho bout. Where Class Tells. 1 ;H Moore's class began to tell ln the sec- ond round and Maloney suffered severe- jH ly from volley after volley of jabs. Inter- ! spersed with a dozen or more stiff right and left short-arm punches. Maloney 1 IH was wilting, though, and never broke ground an Inch. The third was also a 'M i bad session for the west side lad, Pal peeking, jabbing and walloping him al- , most as ho pleased. This was especially true during the infighting, when Moore ' would cut loose with uppercuts that landed with the rapidity of bullets from a gatllng gun. Tommy was in a bad : way when the bell rang. iH The fourth was lively enough, but iH Moore did not appear to be extending ' '-1 himself, and this gave Maloney a little iH better chance, but at that Moore earned the honors. And the' fifth could be truth- ' fully called a "repeater." Tho sixth was a walkaway for the Quaker City boy. He loafed a little un- 'M til toward the ond of the round, when 'M he sent over jabs so fast that they could IP'I hardly be counted. Not one missed Tom- h my. cither, and the west side boy went Hil to his corner dizzy and I think dlscour- Kl'H aged- K Maloney did a bit better In the seventh fi' jB nnd his success angered Pal. who made I iH a whirlwind finish of the session, but not B JH fast enough to cop. the laurels. L'l Moore mado up for the lost time In the i eighth, and the peppering he handed i Tommy for a minute was a caution. Ma- t lM loney hit up a terrific pace during tho I final two minutes and rather tied the L' ! score for the three-mlnuto session. L'il Pal showed us In the ninth just what lliH a Quaker can do when he wants to. and 6 iM little Tommy had to pay tho fiddler. Just for good mensure ho showed us tho same- thing in the final, too. and Tommy vM will never forget tho lacing he got then. VM Bloody Battle at Fairmont. JH Mickey McDonough took a terrific beat- llil ing from Jim Smith at the Fairmont A. C, but weathered ten rounds. He was i-l the worst punished man I have ever seen In tho ring encounter and the gamcst ns well. I'H Smith is a powerful chap apd he landed jll a hundred punches during the battle. He IH cut McDonough's face, almost broke his .H ribs, but could not put his opponent llH on the mat. Mlckoy look a worse beat- !H Ing than Joe Grim over got, and he took It gamely. McDonough's fat-laden rib? presented a lH good target for Smith and the Bronxite Hl fought for Uiat part of Mickey's body !'H constantly Wo was malting a good show- !H Ing, too, when suddenly McDonough ffiiH dropped him with a savage right swing IH on tho head.
