    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Robert L. Flower, Appellant.
   The record does not establish any violation of section 385 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. (Cf. People v. Elliott, 66 App. Div. 179, affd. 172 N. Y. 146.) We are of the opinion, also, that the court’s charge as to the effect to be given character evidence was in substantial compliance with the rule stated in People v. Trimarchi (231 N. Y. 263, 266). In any event, there was no exception to that instruction; and even if it be assumed that it was erroneous, a new trial is not necessitated under section 527 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, as defendant’s guilt was established beyond a reasonable doubt. (Cf. People v. Robbins, 278 App. Div. 592, affd. 302 N. Y. 885.) The other claims of error advanced by defendant have been examined and are similarly without merit. Present — Nolan, P. J., Carswell, Adel, Wenzel and Mac-Crate, JJ.
