The article doesn’t state what the issue was.

For the same reason as Kipling described in "Belts":

There was a row in Silver Street that's near to Dublin Quay,
Between an Irish regiment an' English cavalree;
snip
There was a row in Silver Street -- it isn't over yet,
For half of us are under guard wid punishments to get;
'Tis all a merricle to me as in the Clink I lie:
There was a row in Silver Street -- begod, I wonder why!

[fortes fortuna juvat]

For the same reason as Kipling described in “Belts”:
.........................................
Ah, the great Rudyard Kipling, author of that magnificent poem, “The Stranger”!

There was a row in Silver Street — begod, I wonder why!

Worthy of thought, thanks.
