The magistrate found, as a matter of fact, that the appellant was selling newspapers as alleged in the complaint. This finding we cannot disturb as it is supported by credible testimony. The question, however, before us is: Does the orderly selling of papers on a subway train constitute disorderly conduct as defined in subdivision 2 of section 722 of the Penal Law, which reads as follows:

There is no evidence in this case of any other acts or conduct on the part of the appellant that tended to annoy, disturb, interfere with, obstruct, or be offensive to others, nor do any of the acts proven tend to a breach of the peace. The judgment must, therefore, be reversed on the law, facts examined, and, no errors found therein, complaint dismissed.
