Gictment charging grand larceny.
Asked If he wished the court 10 as

Remember the old adage that the
lawyer who defends himself has a fool

FIRST Marvin asked if plea OF petty
larceny would be accepted. That was
allowed and he pleaded guilty to the
minor charge. lie then made long
harangue on his merits as n citizen
and reasons why he should be released
on suspended sentence. Judge Rosal-
sky reserved decision and sent him
back TO the Tombs.
Detective Edward Rayens was at

PICKED PLACE TO DIE
Suicide Found in Hastings
Identified by Sister.

The body Of suicide found in the
woods at Hastings last Monday was
identified yesterday as that Of Edward
+. Bahler, of 329 West 10th St, New
York. The identification was made by
Mrs. Leahy, sister Of the dead man,
living at the same address with her
father
Mrs. Leahy told the authorities that
her brother had been respondent for
some time, and after a trip to Hastings
early this month told her that he had
found an excellent place in which to
commit suicide His remark was not
taken seriously However, Bahler dis
appeared on October 7, and was not
seen again until his body was discoy-
cred. A coincidence that had puzzled
the police was that in the mans pocket
was newspaper clipping describing
the finding of the body of young girl
in the Mohawk. Mrs. Leahy's story ap-
pears to dispel the possibility of any
connection between the two deaths.

FIFTH AV. SUBWAY
STATION STARTED
Derricks and Debris Likely to
Encumber Central Park
Plaza.

The work Of excavation for the Fifth
av. station of the seth st. spur OF the
Broadway subway was begun yester-
day afternoon.
Workmen removed some of the
asphalt from Central Park Plaza, driv-
ing in a post which marks the location
of the new station.
1t is expected that the work on the
Fifth av. station Will within few days
add to the number Of unsightly der
ricks and piles Of debris which have
marred the beauty of the streets on
the south Of the park for the last two
months. Much criticism has been made
by residents OF the neighborhood as to
the manner in which the streets have
been encumbered
Park Commissioner Ward is willing
TO do anything in his power TO pre-
serve the beauty Of the neighborhood
during the building of the subway, but
he has been informed that the erection
OF derricks in the streets, together with
other Objectionable features. is "un-
avoidable." Some wonder has been ex-
pressed that the engineers Of the Pub
lie Service Commission have not been
able to evolve a method of subway
construction that will not keep the
streets in a blockaded condition for d
wear or more.
