A dispatch from chat city says Patrolman Norton is ''taking it easy" at hi* home after making an early morning arrest under conditions remarkable for even the New York police department. Down a 100 foot shaft in a bucket and then through a succession of air locks to a point more than 100 feet out under the Saat river in search of a negro desperado, who had just smashed a comrade's skull witn a steel drill, is not an ordinary morn ing's job, even for a patrolman, i A quarrel cvsr a crap game led to the assault. Out there, 125 feet from the river bank and 165.feet below the surface, the world seems far away and remote. The wounded man's companion stood by and saw the thing done, too fasci nated with terror to move a finger to save him?until It was too late.. Patrolman Norton learned of the assault shortly after it had taken place, and that the negro, Coleman, aad remained in the air lock. He hastened to the shaft head and had the ergloeerir g staff lower him down the clear huadred feet, between the clammy, dripping rock walls, in the small bucket that even the Sand hogs are careful with, to the bottom, where he started off into the yawning black ness of the tunnel mcuth toward the first air lock. He finally reached a point where be could communicate with the half dcz en men, among whom was Coleman, remaining at the head of the line, next to the shield. He ordered them to come out and they came willing enougn, especially the negro, who en deavored to push by the policeman, But the latter was too quick for hin, and had him safely under arrest be fore he reached the foot of the shaft.
