"MR, FIX-IT" ARRESTED
ON EXTORTION CHARGE
John Gold in Custody In Boston Ac-
cused of Shaking Down. Al
legged Bootlcgger

Boston, Nov. 20 P-John iR.
Gold of Maiden, was held in default
of $4,000 bail today after his arrest
by Sergeant William Mckenzie of
the headquarters liquor squad, whose
collector" he is alleged to have de-
scribed himself to be, in approach
ing a Roxbury bootlegger for pro-
lection money.
Mckenzie and second officer
secreted themselves in Roxbury
tenement where Gold came to keep
an appointment with the bootlegger.
Three other plain clothes officers
trailed the suspect to the house and
kept guard outside.
Gold, according to Mckenzie, told
the bootlegger that the sergeant was
a tough guy" and that 1910 would
be needed to make things right.
The $40, Gold was alleged to have
explained, would be his fee" for
acting as go-between. When the
bootlegger protested he had only
5000 with him, Gold took the none!
and as he pocketed it, police placed
him under arrest. The bills had been
marked.
A loaded revolver and a badge
was found on the prisoner who salt
he had worked as a private investi
gator.
