FALCONER MAKES CLEVER
DEFENSE AT HEARING
"Lleutenant" Seeks to Escape From
Grand Larceny Charge but Is
Unsuccessful


Lieutenant" B. S. Falconer alais
Fallon- Briggs, with remarkable keen
ness yesterday came very near break
ing down the charge of grand larceny
at his preliminary hearing before Judge
Chambers. Falconer was unsuccessful,
court under $500 bail.
AS soon as August Peterson, the COM
planning witness, had testified that the
grip, found in Falconers possession, and
it's contents were worth $3.50 and that
$125 of this amount was in shares Of
the Miller Cab Signal company, Fal-
coner saw his opportunity. Quietly Fal-
coner claimed the Judges attention and
said that the charge of grand lar
ceny would not hold good as the GER
tiflcate of stock was of no value except
to Peterson. The court maintained that
! the question was not one for him to
decide, and the case proceeded.
Again complication arose when Fal-
coner's written confession was sub
mitted in evidence by the plaintiff. In
the first part of the question, the words
"give you chance" appeared. This
was construed by the court to mean
an inducement offered to secure the
confession. and the prosecution has
tened to ask to have it withdrawn, but
Falconer cunningly pleaded to have the
confession accepted. Officer Allen said
afterward that the phrase referred to
giving Falconer chance to recover the
goods sold, though it was not fully
worded to that effect

WHEN TOGO WAS YOUNG.
Example of the Japanese Admiral's Alertness of Mind Given in
 Boyhood Days.

A retired English naval officer, who when lad, was on board the training ship Worcester, at the same time as the future Japanese Admiral Togo, accord ing to the Rochester Herald, tells the following "reminiscences:
 "Togo was constantly the victim of au manner of chaff from the young British CTS on board, who called him 'One-go- two-go-t -three-go.' Disliked at first. perhaps because he was unlike his mates, he grew in popularity on account of his remarkably alert mind and agile body, until at length he became gen. eral favorite with officers and boys.
 He stood all chaff with a certain amount of brayado. unless 1t touched on his resemblance to the Chinese. To one fellow sailor who dubbed him Chinaman, he said. with emphasis: When am the" admiral. hang you to the yardarm.
 'One day Togo had his leave stopped for some small offense Liberty boyf to go ashore was piped, and the boys went up to him and said: Are you to go: No he replied Immediately the young- sters got around him and pinched him. for telling lies, shouting at the same time: You are Togo
 His praenomen being rather difficult to pronounce, Togo was told by one of the boys to shoot his godfather and god' mother on his return home. We do nos shoot gods in Japan,' was hls reply

NEW YORK, Oct. 10-There was some
perceptibc relaxation in the money mar
ket today and a resulting relief from the
pressure of liquidation in the stock mar
ket which was in evidence yesterday At
the same time one or two incidents calcu-
lated to inspire the speculative spirit oc-
Cured. The result was a movement
toward recovery in prices. There was
nothing like a revival of speculative ac-
tivtty. however as was shown by the
practical cutting in half of the volume of
transactions compared with yesterday.
Except in a few closely held stocks the
price movement was narrow and sluggish.
The long prevalent rumors OF melon
cutting for the Great Northern stock
holders developed in the decision TO issue
$25WO, 900 of new stock, the present stock
holders to be allowed to subscribe at par
to the extent of 20 per cent. of their hold
ings. The price of the stock was rushed
up over points during the first hour.
The declaration of the yearly dividend
on the common stock on the United States
IRON PIPE company was an influence In Il
number of low priced industrial stocks.
The call money rate yielded rather de-
Cisively below six per cent. today for the
first time since last weeks furry. At the
same time sentiment over the money out
look was improved in London. This latter
the report that the Bank of France had
relinquished $5000,00O gold to be shipped
to Egypt, relieving by that much re-
quirement in the London market. The
continental exchange also moved in favor
of London, although discounts hardened
both at Paris and Berlin and remained
stationary in London; The price of gold,
however, was marked up in London.
The quiet tone of money Is felt to be de-
pendent at present on the quietude of
speculation. This belief had an effect in
restraining any activity in the stock
market.
The government reports confirmed the
existing confidence in the favorable out
come of the crops and helped the strong
undertone of the stocks. Some attention
was attracted by reports of the extent to
which the congestion of freight threatens
to embarrass grain and flour exporters
here owing to their largo contracts for
delivery on the other side with engage
ment of freight room on steamships and
purchases in the west already made. The
days extreme rise in stocks was not
all held until the closing owing to the
profit taking movement in the last hour
and the closing tone was irregular.
Bonds We're steady. Total sales, par
value. 81, 235,0O0.
United States bonds were all unchanged
on call
