THE CHARITY COMMISSIONERS AGAIN.

Secret investigation Yesterday-A Little
History of Ex-Keeper Edward FnicOner.
The Board Of Commissioners OF Charities and Cor
recton held another OF their secret Investigations
yesterday in the Wardens room in the Tombs.
Messrs Laimbeer and Stern were present, but
Commissioner Bowen was not. EX-Keepers Fin
nan and Falconer were examined as also were
Keeper Dwyer and Oficer Langham, of the
Sixth precinct. Nothing new was ELECTED from
any OF these people. Mrs. Tinsman, whose hus.
band was confined in the same cell with Flood,
the man whom Sarah Allen visited on the
day OF sharkeys escape, was also called in
before the august Board OF Commissioners.
Mrs. Tnsman testified that she did not know
Mrs. Allen; did not speak to her that day; in fact,
she knew nothing at all about the matter in ques-
tion. Ex-keeper Faconer's testimony was quite
voluminOus, and by eXOneratlng him from blame
the commissioners evidently hoped to obtain some
startling testimony.
1t may be interesting to them to know that ex-
pany with George Abrams, alias Gale Gunnion. on
December %, 1850, by Judge Steers, ut Essex Mar
ket Police Court, on charge OF burglary. The
record Of the Tombs Prison shows that te was
brought there on December ~ OF that year, where
he Is described as being 26 years OF age, born the
United States and by occupation book
agent. He was discharged for some unaccOunt-
able reason on January "a, 1861, while his
companion, George Abrams, alias Gale Gunnion,
was sentenced to four years and nine months in
Sing Sing. AT that time Edward talconer resided
at No. 1877 avenue A. and Abr ans, alias Gunnion.
at 210 Avenue G. Falc0ner was subsequently APP
pointed on the police, and was dismissed from the
force by Thomas q. Acton. Altogether his record
is peculiar one, and how he became appon ted q
keeper his political friends alone can tell. He Is
said to be a nephew OF Alderman Faconer. and it
is for that reason he has not been held to answer.
while comparatively innocent persons have been
imprisoned and brought before the Court ol Gene
raj Sessions,
