Severe Storm Last Week.

A severe rain and wind storm
swept over large portion of the
State last Tuesday afternoon. While
an unusually hard rain fell there was
no damage to life or property in this
Immediate vicinity. In fact, the storm
seems to have treated US with great
deal of consideration, as it skipped
Lowndes county and expended its v1o-
lence on all slides of US, heavy dam
age having been reported from Aber-
deem, Smithville and Amory on the
north and Natchez and Jackson on
the south.

firm belief that Prof. Aswel would
remain in the State of Louisiana. Mr.
Aswell is the guest of Prof. CaId-

LAPS TO SEE
 MANEUVERS

London, Oct, 12.-That Englanu has closer alliance with Japan than other nation is evidenced by the fac that only Japanese naval attach a. hae been invited to witness the au- tumn maneuvers, which this year will be conducted in the North sea. Under the supreme command of Lord Charles Beresford, the com bined home, Atlantic and channel fleets will leave Portland next week for the maneuvers, which will last several weeks. The main object is believed to be stragllcal, to teach the officers what would be expected of them in case of war with Germany.
 No newspaper correspondents will be allowed to accompany the ships, and the program is being kept strict secret. Lord Charles Beresford will be assisted by no less than nine other admirals, and the important ships of his fleet will include twenty five battleships, fourteen armored cruisers and ten protected cruisers, together with a number of smaller vessels, including over fifty torpedo boat destroyers.

Up to two years ago Walsh was one of the leaders in Chicago financial and railroad circles, and his owner ship of the Chicago Chronicle afford ed medium for the widespread dis semination of his financial plans. He was a director of the Worlds Colum- bian exposition and prominent in all civic affairs. His Napoleon'c ambition to become the head of a great railroad system wrought his ruin, and next week he must appear before the bar of justice to answer for the sins he is alleged to have committed against the laws of the land.
 John s Miller, famous as attorney for the Standard Oil Company, is Walsh's chief counsel and ever since the indictment of the Irish finacier has cared on legal batt to sax e Walsh from trial.
 When Walsh was brought into court to answer to the federal grand jury, the excitement was so great that he was spirited in by way of the freight elevator, surrounded by body guards. When formally arraigned, Walsh pleaded not guilty.
 Fletcher Dobyns and F. s. Han chett, assistant United States district attorneys, have been working on the case for many months and have se- cured hundreds of pounds of docu- mentary evidence to confound the brilliant attorneys engaged by Walsh. Much of this evidence has been SUD- piled by expert bank examiners, em- ployed by the government to inves- tigate the failure of the Chicago Ma tional bank. The government attor- neys have announced that they are ready for trial, and as there are no
 further preliminary motions that Walsh can make, it appears certain that the case will be called next Tuesday, the date set. Only the possi- ble serious illness of Walsh, who is said to be broken in health and al- most an invalid, is likely to prevent the proceedings. Walsh's defense, it is said, will be largely technical, and an unprecedented array of experts will appear for both sides.

Jesse c. Hart, chancellor of the Pulaski Chancery Court, was yes- terday appointed as associate jus tice of the Supreme Court by Acting Governor PindalI, to succeed the late Justice James F. Riddick, says yesterdays Gazette.
 Judge Hart, it is understood, was gwen until Tuesday to consider the matter of his appointment, and on that day return his answer to the governor as to whether or not he will accept the proffered position.
 Judge Hart it is understood, was given tender of the position by the governor came to him as a sur prise, anu that he requested that a few days be allowed him in which to consider the matter, which was readily granted by the governor. It is an admitted fact that the con- stitution and the statutes are some what conflicting in regard to the right of the governor to make an appointment of this character within a specified time previous to gener- al election, but it is not this ques- tion, Judge Hart states, which prompted him to request reason able time to deliofSate over the ad- visibility of accepting the appoint ment. His object in withholding his answer is simply for time In which to debate in his own mind as to whether it should be to his inter- est to accept the generous offer of the governor for his promotion.

BANK PRESIDENT
 TO FACE JURY xohn R. Walsh, Former ? Head of Wrecked Chicago National Bank to Be Civ en Hearing.
 INVOLVES $3,5O0,00O 'Mem0randum Note" Transactions to Figure-Misappropriation of Funds Was Made Without Knowledge of Directors, It Is Claimed.
INVOLVES $3,5oo,ooo

Chicago, Oct 12.-JOhn R. Walsh, former president of the wrecked Chi cago National bank, must stand trial next week on 175 counts of the in- dictments against him, charging mis- application of funds and credits of the institution and also that he made false entries in the reports to the comptroller of the currency. Between 50 and 60 transactions are covered in the indictment, the aggregate sum involved being about $3,500,000. The minimum sentence for conviction on a single count is five years. Such a verdict, if given, would be virtually one of death for the aged and broken financier, who is now in his 10th year
 The specific charges are that sums of money were credited to the per sonal account of President Walsh as the result of memorandum note transactions, and of the sale of cer- tain bonds to the bank; ald that pay ments of money were made by him from the sums credited to his account following the transactions in memo . randum notes" and the sale of bonds. \The Chicago Chronicle, the newspaper (which represented the Walsh regime Vwhen the Irish financier was dream ing dreams of railway empire, and which collapsed when the Walsh bub- ble burst, is named in three counts as having received $60,0oo of the mill lions secured through the alleged discounting of fraudulent and insecur- ed paper It is alleged that other large sums went to bolster the Walsh railroad properties, the Illinois Southern, the Southern Indiana and the Wisconsin & Michigan
 According to the indictment, the misrepresentation of the funds was made without the knowledge or direc- tion of the other directors Or officials. Walsh is said to have been animated in his wrong-doing by the desire to satisfy his ambition to become rail- road king.
 The downfall of Walsh forms one of the most tragic chapters in American financial history Even should he be acquitted, his last years have been embittered, his ambitions blasted and his fortune dissipated in the wreck and ruin that he has brought upon himself. Walsh was self-made man, and he has also ruined himself. If it should be found that he has not vlo- lated any law, that his faults were rot due to his towering ambition and
 devoid of criminal intent, Walsh's punishment is none the less certain. A jail sentence would be but final taste of ignominy for the man whom the fates have already broken and cast down.
 Walsh began his Chicago career six ty years ago as a newsboy on the streets He was born in Ireland, August 22, 1887, and landed in Chica- go with his parents a decade later. He early evinced great business 2t;i- ity and at 24 became the proprietor of flourishing news business, which he soon consolidated with the American News Company, of which he became a director. In 1882 ne founded the Chicago National bank, which he is now accused of wrecking.
