The only oflicinlly reported to the
Detective lllll‘t'illl. was recuivod by
the New York Auto Supply Com-

out being observed at the time.

The same man is said to have been
active in obtaining change for the
bills in all four cases. as far as could
be learned.

According to the N. Y. Auto Sup-
ply company complaint. a chauffeur.
with a large limousine. bought a.
gallonof oil and handed in the bill.
Because of the woman passenger, of
good appearance. and the apparent
genuineness of the bill no one was

upon checking up the counterfeit
was discovered. The other bills were
found when all notes of that de-

All patrolman will warn mer-

that this gang is the same that has
passed the bogus $10 notes that were
circulated in this and other cities of

.\'l-;\V YORK, Aug.

to give him more time for the sum-
moning of defense witnesses in his
trial in Federal Court for juror
l bribing. \Vllliiim J. Fallon yesterday
won the jury's consent to an ad-
journment. until Monday.
‘ The prosecution rested after cons
fronting Fallon with the last of his
principal accusers, “1 Frank Mc-
‘Gee. convicted bucketshop broker.
;::nd Daniel D“'}'€l‘. the Deputy
lL'nitcd States Marshal who arrested
the defendant on June H as s fugi-
tive from justice.

.ludgc McClintic referred Fallon‘s
request for the adjournment to the
[jury after expressing his personal
ullsapprovnl of it. “Gentlemen of
the jury." he said. "I am not in
favor of this. but 1 do not want to
impose the Court's wishes on you
as i believe you should decide the
matter."

Judge Releases Jumrs.

There was hardly a moment‘s hcs-
Eltatlon before several jurors chorus-
'cd their approval of the three days‘
adjournment. The others promptly
echoed their sentiments. and the
judge smilingly released them with
the usual caution not to discuss or
read about the case outside the
court.

l-‘allon was unsparing in his cross—
;rxamination of McGee as he has
‘lwcn on the previous day with
(‘harles W. Rendigs. the Juror alleg-
ed to have been bribed by the dc-
frndant in the Darrell-Gregory mail
fraud case in 1922. Both witnesses
are under conviction. Rendlgs for
gpcrjury. but neither has begun serv-
ling his sentence. Fallon has sought
'tn shoiv that their testimony against
llllm was influenced by hopes for
lmltigated punishment. This is in
lsupport of the defence's often re-
.peated contention that the govern-
lment and a morning newspaper de-

 

slrc his conviction as part of a "con-
spiracy to destroy" him.

To barrage of questions from
Fallon concerning McGee's bucket—
shop past the witness said. always in
the same monotone—"I decline to
ed to the court. on the legal ground
.that hls replies might tend to "de-
grade'nr incriminate" him.

Qucstions l'nanswr'rcd.

Some of the questionsso answered
by the witness were:—

“Isn't it a fact that you buckcted

“Doesn't bucketing mean stealing
money sent to you to be invested——
some of it through the mails?

"If the government were hostile
to you now. couldn’t you still be
prosecuted for using the mails to de-
fraud?

"Couldn‘t you be prosecuted for
millions of felonies. for which you
could be sentenced to millions of
years in prison?

“Will you tell this jury of any
honest day's work you ever did in
your life?

“Couldn't the government also
prosecute you, if it wanted to, for
defrauding it of income tax?"

A prize of 40.000 francs for "the
best mother in France" recently was
awarded by pepuiar vote Alvan F.
Sanborn reports in the Boston Tran-
script. Twenty other somewhat less
imposing but still substantial prizes
were awarded in the same manner
to twenty other mohtcrs. represent-
ing all classes of society and all sec-
tions of France and nearly two hun-
dred relatively slight rewards for en-
lightened and consecrated mother-
hood were distributed in accordance
with the verdict of a committee-pre-
sided ovcr by the novelist. Rene Ba-
sin.

Tile purpose of the novel voting
contest styled “Les Mamans de
France." is to reveal and recom-
pense obscure merit and to combat
race suicide by giving direct practi-
cal assistance to the motile-2 of large
families.

It illustraes the energy and re-
sourcefulness of the typical French
woman. who is a. particularly ‘capa-
ble specimen of femininity and it
demonstrates afresh that the rearing
of children still is the raiaon d’etre
of the normal woman. It shows fur-
ther that material difficulties are not
an insupcrable obstacle in the way of
bringing up properly a family of
children and that even the most un-
fortunate mothers may save the lit-
tle ones who would seem to be pre-
destined to physical and moral deg-
radation.

Soldier Boys’ Mother

The winner of the 40.000 franc
Grand Priz is Mme. Paul Henry of

ble business woman after the death
of her husband from an illness
contracted in his country's service.

Furthermore. Mme. Henry is as

llcarted. \Vitness this extract from

, A fortnight later. August 24?. the
situation became alarming. The
sound of battle was distinctly audi-
ble and signs of the advance of the
enemy became more and more nu-
merous. The majority of the inhab-
itants left. and Mmc. Henry. had

would have followed their example.
As‘it was. sustained by a stanch be-.
lief that God would somehow pro-
tect her she awaited the onset with

"It appeared to me." she says.
"impossible to flee. How could I
with my six children? Besides I had
no money and I was dismayed at the
appalling possibility of giving birth
to my child on the highroad. By way
of precaution. I installed myself with
'my six little ones in the cellar. and
there some thirty of e inhabitants
of the village joined us. feeling so—
curer than in the village proper.

"Five days later. the Germans
bombarded the village. It was fright-
ful. Th oground was covered with
bleeding soldiers. the greater part in-
ert. and I overheard a captain say
to his men. ‘It's impossible to pick
up the wounded now; we‘ll attend
to tha‘ later.’ It was pitiful."

lnipl'ovising Hmpltu Under Fire

"I went to a general standing on
the roadside near a cannon which,
was firing incessantly and I asked
and easily obtained his permission
to install an ambulance in my house.
With a. piece of white linen and two
strips of red cloth I made a Red
Cross flag and nailed it over the
door. and then. with the help of
some of those who had sought shel-
ter with me. I gathered in the poor
fellows. many of whom were moan-
ing piteously. I have the flag still
and shall always keep it as a sou-
venir.

“Toward the end of the day I
fancied myself the victim of an hai-
lueination. The sheaves in a neigh-
boring oat field seemed to be walk-
ing. And they really were walking.
The Germans were hidden beneath
them and were approaching the vil-
lage under their protection.

"When I realized what this meant
