In an exciting Broadway raid early
To-day detectives arrested seven men
on charges of acting in concert in
the selling of narcotic drugs, and say
they have cleared up the mystery Of
one source through which opium,
heroin and other drugs have been
smuggled into the city.
At Police Headquarters the prison

They were arrested in the basement

eth Street. According to the detec-
tlNeS, Opluhls lGlOAiii SONoihO oAiN NNAASA
drugs, valued at $50, 900, were found
in the basement where the arrests
were made.
Just before the raid three detectives
went to the Seaman's Institute at No.
26 South Street and arrested James
Williams and Park Tobin, the latter
the captain of a barge, on charges Of
having narcotic drugs in their posses
sion.
The detectives said they found
drugs valued at $4,000 in possession
of the two men.
Detectives. led by Special Deputy
Police Commissioner DR.. Carleton
Simon and Capt. Archibald Mcneil
Of the West soth Street Station, made
the Broadway raid.
Last Thursday detectives arranged
with a man they met in Water Street
FOR the purchase Of a large quantity
of drugs. They say he took them to
the Broadway restaurant and intro
duced them to Frank Herman. the
chef, and to Arthur Thompson, a
waiter. 1t was arranged, the detec-
tives said, that they meet Paul Lar
san the next day to put the deal
through. but It chung fire. a day
or so.
After further delay, Detective
Henry Addy was introduced yester-
day as the buyer, the "man with the
money" and 1t was arranged to have
him meet Larsan last night in the
basement under the restaurant. Frank
Herman was also there, the police
nay, and Arthur Thompson, the wait
or. Detective Moffett, who accom-
panied Addy, handed Herman a sum
of money agreed upon, according to
the police, and the arrests followed.
Bruno Schmidt, the detectives say.
told them that he had taken the
trugs-flfteen pounds or more-from
the Seaman's Institute several days
ago and put them In locker under
the restaurant. Later Larsan, accord
ing to the police, said the drugs had
been brought here last week from
Hamburg, Germany, on board the
steamship Mount Clay of the United
American Lines, now lying at the
foot of West 4sth Street. No one
was allowed to enter or leave the
restaurant while The basement raid
was being made.
Following the raid. DR.. Simon, If

"There are Just two big things

cannot go to the North and live
like a Southerner. He cannot live

Let me give you an instance
OF what I mean The first settlers
of Southern Illinois came from
Louisiana and they tried TO plant
Southern Illinois with cotton.
Naturally, 1t was a failure. And
undoubtedly those men, many of
whom left the country, would

Yet now it probably is regarded as
one of the most fertile sections of
our country.
''If you will go North and live

to make a good living. If I were
not an explorer, but just a man
with my living to make, I could
go to the North and maintain a
most comfortable existence on less
than two hours a day of work.
Also it would be work much more
interesting than factory labor or
many other Jobs; in fact, it would
be work which many Americans
choose for play-the task Of hunt

In 1.-The Friendly Arctic" Mr..
Stefansson has described how he
and his party "lived on the coun-
try" by killing seal, caribou,
bear and Polar oxen as they need
ed food, fuel and clothes. The
blubber in the seal he used for
fuel. to cook the seal flesh.
The meat OF caribou, he says,

could tell the difference between
Polar oxen steak and the sort we
buy In New York. The skins of

Now, then, let's GO
That's what | felt like dong
after talking to our greatest
American explorer OF to-day,
. Vilhjalmur Stefansson, who holds
the worlds record for five and a
half years Of continuous Polar
service, who took away the ad-
iective unknown" from appro1i-
mately 10000 square miles OF
Arctic land and sea, and whose
enthralling, recently published
story, "The Friendly Arctic" may
be hailed by future generations as
the book that made the Far North
safe for humanity. For In this
story Of his sojourn in Arctic re-
glons he gives the most detailed
the most plausible, the most de-
terminedly non heroic description
of how life "up there" Is not only
possible but heelthful, enjoyable
fruitful for colonists and settlers
as well as explorers:
found Mr., Stefansson at the
big building iof the American
Geographical Society at Broadway
and 16sth Street, newly returned
from the rigors OF a cross conti-
mental tour. There's nothing
about him Of the worn and hag-
~ard veteran explorer. He Is a
Young man with tousled mop OF
hair like a schoolboy's, clear, blue
ewes, a slight. active figure and a
face but lightly lined. And the
frst question asked him was;
"In view of the ease and comfort
in which, throughout your book,
Won say life may be supported
around the Arctic Circle do you
not, believe that region can and
viii be settled by permanent col
onists?"
'srhe process Of settling Il has
begun" replied Mr.. Stefansson,

ton due to the fact that the first
settlers. wanted graphophones.

me. "all the time we were in the

who have the same breakfast
every morning; when we were
in the North we merely had the
same lunch and dinner In addi-
ton. Furthermore, I am con-

Menace Of MutueIs Seen
In Michigan Horse Racing
Say Profiteering by Machin-
cry Will Bring Discredit.
~ ). n. CoNsrDrNE.

The menace of the mutuel betting ma
chimes at running races is graphically
illustrated by the harness racing situa-
ton in Michigan. The state officials
have prohibited pool selling and this OF
necessity must bring about the final
downfall Of trotting races there.
There seems to be very strong evil
dence that syndicate has been formed
to establish a circuit Of half mile run
ming tracks in the State and use the
machinec as the profit maker" On
nearly all tracks using the machines
seven races are given. not with the in
tention OF benefiting the horseman but
because It means a half hourly turn
over Of five per cent or more on all
money wagered.
And there lies this danger to the run.
ming turf. as these half milers are
springing up In ALI sections of the
country. with the very poorest class OF
hcrses in competition for purses which
are far in excess Of the value of the
horses competing. and which must ir
the very near future bring discredit or
'the sport of kings"
Rumblings of dissensions are already
being heard In Kentucky. where two new
tracks are in the building. 1t would
seem as II there were already enough
racing in that State, with one track
alone running sixty days.
But at the same time It is not the
surfeit of racing that will bring dis
aster. but the enormous profits which
are being extracted from the public
through these machines. 1t must be
remembered that the racing public is
but q small percentage of our popula-
ton. and consequently the drain on this
particular class is enormous. Naturally
It will be hard indeed to convince the
promoters that this viewpoint IL cor
rect. but attention 10 already directed
toward the profiteering possibilities oi
the sport under the machines, as the
situation IN Michigan shows. and next
year will no doubt see many new tracks
clamoring for recognition.

LAUREL HALL FARM
SOLD FOR $1,75O,OO0
Home Of Famed Trotting Sire
Peter the Great Soon to Be-
come an Orphanage.

The sale OF S. A. FIetchers Laurel
Hall farm. near Indianapolis. for ST.
10000. to be transformed into an or
phanage. probably marks the passing
of what has been In the last few years
one Of the most select studs Of trotting
horses in the world 1t was in 1915 that
the Indiana banker startled the harness
racing world by paying $4,000 to w.
r. d. Stokes for the famed trotting
sire Peter the Great, 2:07A, then twenty
one years old. and picking up collec-
ton Of great producing mares, which
embraced Nervolo Belle and several
others. for which he was reported to
have paid $4,000 EACH
The price paid for tho stallion was
the largest, on record for twenty-one-
year-old horse Of any breed. His sale
by Mr.. Stokes virtually broke up the
New York breeders Patchen Wilkes
stud In Kentucky. but It put Mr..
Fletcher In the front rank at bound.
and there is little doubt that he never
made more profitable investment. for
Peter the Great readily commanded a
stud fee of $1,000 year after year. 1t
than his cost in addition to giving his
owner galaxy Of great young trotters
each year from the priceless brood
mares at Laurel Hall.
When the colts by Peter the Great
began TO come along Mr.. Fletcher en-
gagged Walter r. Cox. one Of the most
successful drivers of the Grand Circuit,
to campaign them. paying him a salary
of $4,000 year, according to report.
The Indiana horseman became one of
the heaviest plungers in the country.
and his spectacular and successful
breeding. training and betting operations
were the talk of the trotting turf.
Runlors Of the impending changes
was said that Cox would not renew his
contract with Mr.. Fletcher. At the
close OF last season the Laurel Hall
campaigners were sold, and Cox took
charge of the trotters and PAGERS owned
by Mr.. and Mrs. w. II. Cane Of New
York. removing his training quarters
from Indianapolis to Goshen.
Peter the Great. now in his twenty
eighth year. is still In the stud at Laurel
Hall, with a harem which includes Ner-
volo Belle and several other great brood
mares. Whether they Will be sold when
the farm Is delivered over to its new
owners next year has not been an
nounced, but. as Mr.. Fletcher has re-
tanned sixty acres Of the tract. It is
surnised that some part of the stud
may be preserved.
Mr. Fletcher's father, Stoughton J.
Fletcher. was a prominent horseman be-
fore him. As long ago as 1877 he bred
