He was arrested yesterday on the complaint of a man who alleged he had posed as a prohibition agent and extorted $700 as hush money after a raid on his real estate office where two quarts of gin were confiscated. Collins denied he ever had seen Oscar Yastrub, the complainant, before. ‘ Collins is known to police under varidus names, such as Charles A. Cromwell and Robert Arthur Tou- dillon, which they believe is hi right name. He gave the name of Hemingway yesterday. He was a rested after a spirited chase by a mounted policeman when he eluded Yastrub by slipping out of his coat. Name Linked With Murders His name was mentioned in_con- f William Desmond Taylor, movie director, in 1922, and he was arrested in Paris “on the charge of shooting John H. Reid, a silk manufacturer, in 1924. He never went to trial on either of the charges. : At the time he was arrested in Paris he was engaged to Mrs, Helen Heyworth, divorced wife of Otto Young Heyworth, grandson of Otto Young, wealthy Chicagoan. His ar- rest, however, caused cancellation of their plans, as he expected to re- ceive a prison sentence on the Reid charge and is said to have urged her to give him up as he would be broken dient before he was free to mai er. ‘The sobriquet “Dapper Don” was applied to him in the first years of his career because of his penchant for the best in wearing apparel, Election Judges, ° Inspectors Named inspectors of the Judges and r é special city election which will be held April 27 to fill the vacancy on the city commission caused by the death of Commissioner Charles Wachter were appointed by the city commission Monday night. .
