preston of cOuntenance arTaigned yesterday
before Judge Gildersleeve charge Of grand lar
ceny Clarence Carlye, the complaining witness,
said that he was photographer at High Bridge.
He went down town, on September 27, with the
defendant who offered TO show him where some
Photographic apparatus could be bought. Baldwin
wanted to be sure that Carlyle had the money with
him and induced him to go into hallway where
CARLYLE showed $50 Baldwin seized the money as
it was being replaced in Carlye's pocket and ran
away Francis Oliver the counsel for the prisoner,
cross-ex amined Carlyle and asked him whether the
money had not been given TO Baldwin to buy coun-
terfeft money The witness Indignantly denied any
knowledge Of such transaction When the counsel
made his address to the jnry he referred again to
the $50 as given TO buy counterfeit money.
You're a liar" called out the complaining wit
ness who was seated not far from the counsel.

Judge did not rebuke the Ontburst. Baldwin testi-
fled that the money had been given him by Carlyle,
who had urged him to buy counterfeit money. On

the name of Reed and that lie bad been convicted
of petty larceny He said that he had no intention
of buying counterfeit bills at the time that he took
the money and that he had never returned IT.

mission of the prisoner was equivalent to plea OF
guilty and the foreman announced verdict to that
effect. Judge Gildersleeve Immediately sentenced
Baldwin to five years III the State Prison.

plead to an Indictment charging him with murder
in the first degree. The prisoner had been taken to
the District-Attorney's office by Inspector Byrnes
Sergeant Hickey and Detective Reilly. He stood
before Recorder Smyth with Inspector Byrnes on
one side and his counsel the other the latter
spoke in his behalf. He entered plea of not guilty
for his client He said that the defendant had sur
rendered himself as he heard that further
proceedings were TO be taken against him, and IN
view of that circumstance and the fact that the evil
dence against him had been so slight that the Cor
Oner's jury had disregarded it, he asked that the
trial take place Immediately. District-AttOney
McKeon said that he would move the case for trial
in the Court of Oyer aud Terminer when that court
opened, on the second Monday of November
In answer to a suggestion by the counsel, Recorder
