AS RAID EPILOGUE U. S. Attorney Considering Problems Arising Over Skir- mish on Greek Ship’s Deck. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, September 10.—Two important arrests were made today a8 an epilogue to the dramatic drug and whisky raid on the Greek steam- ship King Alexander in Brooklyn yesterday. when five seamen were shot in a charge up the gangplank and ¥rank J. Fitzpatrick, head narcotic investigator, later committed suicide. The two prisoners added to the twenty-six detained after the entire crew of more than three hundred had been rounded up were Sebas Mentins, fourth officer of the ship, and James Brennan, a dock watchman. They ‘were charged with conspiring to de- h}ud :‘;-xe government. ccording to federal agents who planned the raid. Mentins received s b e P P 3600 in marked money and Brennan Who.as the president of the As 0 as preliminary payments for | ¢4 Woman Stude; | agreeing to smuggle ashore $20,000 | of Califernia, mothers 5,000 o worth of narcotics and liquor. tween the ages of sixteen Mentins was found hiding in a coal | tWo bunker nursing a gunshot wound in the right arm. Brennan was picked up ashore. Search is being made for another ship’s officer found missing | Mentins and Brennan were subjected to a long examination. It as understood they were questioned to whether the King Alexander, n _previous trips, had brought illicit cargo.

Both he and Mr. Little denounced the sally by the narcotic division as “vrethical, 'if not illegal.” They depreciated the valuation of $100,000 to $1,000,000 placed yester~ day on the drugs and liquor seized, and declared they were not worth more than $2.500. They added that the ship had previously been searched by customs men and confiscations made. “Had we been called upon we would have been glad to co-operate in the raid yesterday,” said Mr. Little. “In that event, the raid would have been a success and the decks would not have been littered with wounded.” United States Attorney Collins of Brooklyn today recalled all his agents on vacation and settled down to con- sider many perplexing phases of the raid. Such, for example, as to wheth- er owners of a ship are liable for actions of the crew and whether the United States could confiscate a for- eign craft. The ship is due to sail next Wednesday.
