Gun Men of New York and the Stag on Twenty-Eighth Street
ALFRED HENRY LEWIS CHICK TRICKER and JAck Sirocco run a Stag house on Twenty-Eighth Street near Broadway where a October night of gunfire left four dead and many wounded. Tricker dodges trouble as gang conflicts erupt at bars like Barney Flynn's and the New Brighton. McManus, the famed Eat-Em-Up Jack, clashes with Tricker and is later killed in a tense confrontation near Great Jones Street.
