BIG NARCOTICS HAUL IN NEW YORK
(Received March 23, 1.0 a.r.i.). NEW YORK, March 22.
Detectives to-day seized nearly 3,000,000 dollars’ worth of pure cocaine in jars and bottles in a vacant house in New York. The cache was uncovered following an intensive search after the arrest of three of the ringleaders in a big narcotics racket. When police raided the flat of the trio on Saturday, they found nearly 2,000,000 dollars’ worth of cocaine and papers which gave them a clue to to-day’s haul.
