JOHN r. WALSH INDICTED.
True Bill with 1872 Counts Returned
Against ChicngO Banker.

John K. Walsh was the subject of
sweeping indictment returned in the fed
cral court at Chicago charging misappro-
priation of funds of the Chicago Ma
tional bank, of which he was president up
to the time OF its failure in December,
1905. The indictment was voted by the
special grand jury which was called to
consider the Chicago National failure.
1t contains 1S2 counts, covering ninety
two transactions involving $2,634,S
of the banks funds. The true bill was
received in court by United States Dis
trict Judge A. b. Anderson of Indianapo-
lis, who fixed the amount of Mr.. Walsh's
bond at $4,000.
Imprisonment is the penalty provided
for the crimes charged in the indictment,
there being no provision for discretion
airy fine. The penitentiary term provided
is FIVE to ten years on each of the 1S2
counts. possible sentence that would run
hundreds of years beyond the end of Mr.
Walshs natural life.
The indictment, which is drawn under
section 800 of the Revised Statutes of
the United States. charges Mr. Walsh
with being responsible for startling con-
ditions in the Chicago National bank, and
the unusual number of counts is the re-
suit of the governments intention to frus-
tIate, if possible, any technical objections
by meeting the eventualtics of variations
in proof when the case comes to trial.

OHIO RIVER FLOOD.
HIGH WATER CAUSES HAVOC
THROUGHOUT VALLEY.
Greatest Deluge Since 1854 Reported
at Cincinnati-Other Cities for 400
Miles Along River Sustain Heavy
Damage.

The Ohio River has overhowed its
banks for more than four hundred
miles, thousands Of people are suffer
ing for the necessities Of life, and thou
sands more are homeless. All indica-
lions point to the greatest flood since
that Of February, 1884. In Cincinnati
all school buildings and churches in the
East End were opened as temporary
homes for the persons who own homes
and whose homes were invaded by the
river. The street car lines in both the
East and West Ends and in the sub
urbs on both sides Of the river were
crippled. About two thousand people
on hill known as Turkey Ridge, in
the East End, were isolated by the
food, which cut them off from the
mainland.
The regular packet service between
Louisville and Cincinnati, which has
not been interrupted for years, was
given up, the steamers being unable
to pass under the bridges. The Fed
eral government withdrew several
boats running south, owing to the diff
ficulty Of making landings. 1t is esti
mated that 10000 people were forced
to move from their homes. In many
places furniture was packed in the
streets, with no protection from the
heavy rain.
The greatest food known in twenty
years IS devastating the towns and
country. 1t is impossible to place an
accurate estimate on the damage that
has been done already. Every town
along the river is suffering from Grip
pied communications, limited fuel sup
ply and a shortage of food, and thou
sands Of men are idle because the
food has closed factories and stopped
practically all industries.

April, 1898, in which twenty nine peo-
pie were drowned, was feared at Shaw
