DIR. Sifmons's Staff Follow
Clew That Leads Sleuths
From Greenwich Village
to a Harlem apartment
Imported Opiates. Seized.


The staff OF DIR, Carleton Simon,
special Deputy Police Commissioner,
early yesterday arrested George Yves,
ton, fifty-six years old of 1920 Lexing-
ton Avenue, in the belief that he was
one of the real leaders in international
drug traffic.
Weston's arrest required the shadow
ing of woman from Tenth and Wash
,neton streets to 10th Street and
Lenox Avenue; listening in on her
telephone conversation and catching
the code she used; making by tele-
phone and through the code midnight
appointment for the purchase OF drugs;
keeping the appointment and waiting
for Weston until he finally arrived, it
is said, two hours late.
1t was Detective Joseph Hackett who
followed the woman in question. She
was the eighth woman who called to
buy drugs after Greenwich Village
dive had been raided, and detectives
had remained there in the hope Of
meeting interesting visitors. All of
the women were questioned and re-
leased.
Hackett also made the appointment

TO buy drugs. but DR.. Simon and six
other detectives helped him TO keep 1t,
waiting for two hours in a police au
tomobile at H6th Street and Lexington
Avenue. Weston was arrested, they
said, after he was seen making sale
Of heroin TO a woman.
Weston denied this, and said that he
knew nothing about drugs and was only
an electrician on, his way home. He
was taken to his apartment, where the
detectives said they found three large
cartons and three bottles Of pure
heroin, all bearing English markings
and supposedly smuggied goods.
Following this search Dr.. Simon took
Weston TO the Detective Bureau, and
there, after an hour of severe question
ing, he confessed. according to Dr..
Simon. that fifteen years ago he served
q sentence for burglary. The detectives
described Weston as we'll dressed, we'll
educated, affabie and one of the coolest
prisoners with whom they had ever had
dealings.
The prisoner was charged with vend :
ing drugs, and it was said that a charge
would be lodged against him. His
finger prints and picture were taken
end these will be sent to other cities
for comparison,
This man is one of the cleverest
have met in my twenty years as d
crinlinologist," DR.. Simon said yester-
day in telling how Weston had offered
10 help the detectives search his rooms,
and in making the offer had coolly
tossed to the top of cupboard a
sweater containing the evidence being
sought
''It was difficult to break through his
reserve but we succeeded, and we en-
pect to have other charges against him
soon. His, capture may mean death
blow to the international drug gang,
for his telephone number has cropped
uE half dozen times within a few
days"
AT Dr. Simon's request, Weston was
held in $4,000 bail. The deputy COM
missioner complained that drug snug
glers have been released too easily
and Immediately have disappeared, or
resumed the sale of drugs.
Benjamin Turin, twenty-six years
old, living with a wife and two chill
dren at 80 Attorney Street, was released
on bail yesterday. He was charged

New Sea Monster Found
Scientists Unable 10 Name Huge
Creature Near Miami

MIAMI, Fla. Feb. 12.-Scientists and
adeep-water fishermen here are puzzled
over the finding of huge sea monster
off Soldiers Key, few miles south of
Miami, which they are unable to name.
The body of the creature was found
three weeks ago by Elmer E. Garrett
son, of Huntington, L. l., who to-day
towed part of the skull to Miami. This
fragment is fifteen feet long and seven
feet wide and weighs three tons.
Mr.. Garrctson said he did not know
how long the monster was, but he saw
as much as eighty feet of it, Sharks
were devouring the flesh. Mr.. Garrett
son asserted the creature evidently
came up out of the deep waters of the
Gulf Stream to die, and this accounted
for its presence in comparatively shall
low water About six feet Of the skull
protruded from the water. Mr.. Garrett
son will head party which will try
to bring the remaining portions ashore.
