water. a scream from the other at
tractcd Elder Blrrus' attention and
without loss Of time he went to the
rescue. The young lady is said to have
pulled the preacher under tho water
and before he could recover his foot
ing he was in the swirtest part of the
creek. His companions, almost eX-

warehouses in New York city and will
be seized to-day.
The prisoners. after being questioned
for two hours at the Custom House,
were taken to Police Headquarters and

Through all this work the detectives
got into the good graces OF the drug

According to information given out
at Headquarters Sardo and Wallis took
the opium to Chatham Square last
night In a taxicab. and were arrested
there by the Government agents and
detectives after one OF the latter had
fired a shot when the drug sellers tried
to escape. Pavalow and Karraca are
said by the detectives to have been in
the vicinity at the time, but they were
not arresed until an hour or so later.
Williams told DR.. Simon at headquar-
ters last night that the 1000 pounds Of
opium was imported into this country
legally and that permits were then
granted for its expectation to European
and Asiatic countries. But instead of
sending out the opium. the agents said.
the men who had the permits sent out
cases filled with stones and bricks and
kept the opium here with the intention
of disposing Of it to addicts at high
prices.
