HORTICULTURAL NOTES,

Strong growing plants are least at
tackled by insects.
Sunshine and water can produce re-
suits il any soil in which plant food
is found.
# hungry trees could "bawl" as the
calves Go, what a chorus Of bowls and
bleats we should heart
Make a map Of the new orchard II
the varieties are not written down
now, they will probably be forgotten
a few years hence.
Some cultivated crop may sometimes
be grown to advantage among young
trees. But do not attempt to grow
grain CT grass crops there.
Every disease of plants is caused by
minute fungi called bacteria. Some
people add, careless treatment and
bad weather. but the latter causes
cannot be clsssed as disease. Strong
plants, well taken care of and sup
piled plant food in abundance have {
good deal of power to throw off dis
ease.

FORMER CHICAGO BANK PRESI
DENT ACCUSED.
Governments Bill of Complaint Al
ieges That He JuggIed Returns to
Comptroller and Converted Large
Sums to His Own Use.

Chicago-John II. Walsh, president
OF the defunct Chicago National bank,
which closed its doors December Is,
1905, was taken into custody on a
federal warrant which charges him
with violation of the national banking
laws In making false returns to the
comptroller Of the currency, and also
asserts that he converted to his own
use without proper authority funds
OF the bank amounting to $3,000,000
He was released after giving bonds of
100000.
The independent. [volume] (Lincoln, Neb.) 1902-1907, 1906-03-08
Date OF Alleged Wrongdoing

The complaint alleges In specific
terms that ON November Is, 1905, the
Chicago National bank transmitted to
the comptroller Of the currency
statement Of the financial condition of
the bank AT the close of business on
November .. In this statement the
said John X. Walsh unlawfully made
certain false entries to the effect that
at the close of business Of the 9th
day OF November the amount of loans
and discounts Of the said banking as
ISOLATION on which the officers and
directors thereof were then liable |
either as payer or endorser was $245,.
900, whereas In trut hthe amount of
such loans and discounts was 49,
5000; and another false entry to
the effect that the amount of loans
and discounts OF the said association
on which the officers and directors
The independent. [volume] (Lincoln, Neb.) 1902-1907, 1906-03-08

were not liable as payers or endorsers
was $1O,65S,22 whereas in truth the
amount of such loans and discounts
on which officers and directors were
not liable, was much smaller, namely,
81, 800 ,000V
The independent. [volume] (Lincoln, Neb.) 1902-1907, 1906-03-08

were not liable as payers or endorser
was $10,65S,226, whereas In truth tn
amount OF such loans and discount
on which officers and directors wer
not liable, was much smaller, namely
$7500,000."
Intent to Defraudv
Another section of the COMPLAIN
alleges that Walsh had In his posses
sion funds and moneys of the banl
amounting TO $3,000,000 with inteni
to injure and defraud' the bank. The
| S3,0O0,000 mentioned in this section
OF the complaint Is, however, identical
with the amount specified as being
loaned to officers OF the bank.
II Is further alleged that John r.
Walsh and John M. Smyth and vii.
liam Best directors of the bank, "and
other persons too numerous to men
ton, unlawfully misappliied this
money by converting 1t to the per.
sonal and private use of John r..
Walsh without any proper authority
whatever.
The arrest OF Mr.. Walsh came as the
direct result of the last examination
OF the books of the Chicago National
bank made by Special Bank Examiner
Arthur l.. Curry, sent to Chicago from
washington. The data furnished to
the treasury department In Washing
ton was sent to District Attorney Nor
rlson in this city, with Instructions TO
take proper steps in the matter
Mr. Walsh Denies Charges
After being released on bail. Mr..
Walsh made the following statement:
The charge in effect is that as
OF the bank / signed re-
,ort TO the comptroller, which report,
| Is now alleged, is false. The re-
'ort in question would ordinarily |
lave been signed by the cashier, but
" reason of his temporary absence
was signed by me as a matter of
curse. The report referred to, how
Yer, was undoubtedly correct in every
articular. These facts will be clearly
established by the evidence il the
ase reaches a stage when evidence is
reduced. / believe, however, that
lore thorough investigation of the
'cis by the Department of Justice and
comparison OF the report with the
ank books will convince the govern
tent that its action is uncalled for
nd cannot be sustained.
Any Inference that might be drawn
ON the complaint that there has
zen any misrepresentation of funds
any way Is absolutely false"
The preliminary hearing of Mr..
alsh before United States Commits. I
oner Foots was set for March 10.
