des DeuS Mondcs. He wished to dis
cuss with Palm some means for discov-

TO return TO the rue Varenne after what
had to happen, and yet unwilling 10

night here 10 consult with him. giving

WAS A FAKE.
Nothing in the Alleged Robbery Of
Frank Long in Goldstrom's Satur-
day. Complainant Admitted to
Perjury and Had the Case Dis
missed.

The cases against Will Kennedy,
"Budsey'' Meyers, and Fred Goldstrom,
charging them with robbing Frank
Long of $3.50 Saturday morning, were
dismissed yesterday morning without
coming to trial, on motion of Long, the
counting for his action, said that he was
drunk when he made the complaint and
that he could not tell what had be-
come of his money.
1t will be remembered that Long ap-
peared before Justice Rogers and made
the statement that three men had
thrown him down in Goldstrom' s
gambling house on Water street and
robbed him of $3.50, which he had just
received from his firm in Pennsylvania
by Adams Express Order
The story was very plausible at the
time and from his description of his as
sailants the police arrested the three
named above. Long identified them as
the right parties.
After the hearing Justice Rogers de-
cided first to hold the man for perjury,
but finally that when the cost to the
State to prosecute was considered, 1t
would be better to let him go. as ne
is not a resident of this State.
Kennedy wishes the "Register" to
state in justice to him that he had no
connection at all with the above case
whatever He said that he had been
doing some plumbing work for Gold
strom and had gone in Goldstrom's
place on Saturday to collect part OF the
money due him for the work. He has
never been arrested before on any
charge.

crate reception was given. On Friday
