The waist is made with fitted lin

which are arranged under the pleats.
The back portion of the chemisette

the closing being made invisibly at

HOW WALSH TOOK MILLIONS
Chicago Banker Indicted on 1872
Counts.
Memorandum Notes." Backed by
Unstable BoEds, Depositors' Only
Surety-Defense Confident.

Chicago, Ill.-John r. Walsh, for
mer president of the Chicago Ma
tional Bank, the Home Savings Bank,
the Equitable Trust Company, head
of network of railroads through
Indiana, Illinois and Michigan, and
reputed to be worth $4,000, 900,
was indicted under 1872 counts in the
report of the special United States
Grand Jury to Judge A. B. Anderson.
Mr. Walsh appeared later before
Judge Anderson and gave bond in
the sum of $4,000 for his appear
ance to plead any time before Feb
ruary g.
The former financial leader of Chi
cago stands charged with the frau
dulent misapplication of funds of the
Chicago National Bank to the amount
of $2,668,000, which, it is charged,
he appropriated to his own use. The
law provides for imprisonment for a
term not less than five years nor
more than ten In case of conviction.
The indictment is the longest ever
returned in Chicago by a Federal
Grand Jury investigating charges
against an individual. It is based
upon twenty-five transactions in
memorandum" notes, which the
Government officials declare to be
fraudulent; upon thirteen sales of
bonds to the bank, it being declared
that those bonds were unmarketable
and of doubtful value, and upon fifty
seven payments of the money de-
rived from those transactions.

discounted between January 81, 1904,
and February Is, 1905, and the total
proceeds were used, the Indictment
charges. by Mr.. Walsh personally. It
is also charged that between January
81, 1904, and February Is, 1905,
Mr.. Walsh paid out an aggregate of
$2,614,377 to his outside interests.
These payments were: Southern In
diana Railway Company, S1,315, 900;
Illinois Southern Railway Company,
1915, 900; Wisconsin and Michigan
Railway Company, $562,000; Euuit-
able Trust Company, of Chicago,
$292,377; other business enter
prises, $4,000.
1t is charged in the Indictment that
Walsh knowingly borrowed money
from the bank on fictitious notes and

doubtful value and that he was
therefore guilty of wilful misuse of
the funds of the institution.
1t was announced by Mr.. Walsh's
attorneys that they expect to have
little difficulty in clearing him when
the case comes to trial. They assert
ed that the basis of any offense de-
fined by the National Banking act is
criminal intent and that the defense
will be that in his entire career Mr..
Walsh never did criminal act or
any act with criminal intent.

No Death List Possible.

Kingston, maica.-The magnifi-
cent landlocked harbor here is closed
TO shipping as a result of the earth
quake. Bowden, however, is open.
and all food and medical supplies will
nave to be landed there. 1t is imper-
alive that relief supplies be sent at
once, for under the present conditions
pestilence is bound to break out.
Money is useless here, and the great
cry IS Ter food and medical supplies.
Human misery seems to have
found it's depth in Kingston. The
content and Incidence which have
been the chief characteristic of the
native have given way to despair, and
men, women and children wander
about blindly, apparently unable to
do anything to help themselves.
Fully $4,000 persons are in. the
streets or camped on the outskirts of
the city, and the total number of
homeless men, women and children
in radius of ten miles from here is
estimated at 10000.
The bodies of the victims of the
disaster still are lying in the streets.
No effort has been made to bury the
victims, and in spite of the gravity of
the situation it is hard to get the ma
tives to do any work. Even In their
present condition their Incidence is
asserting itself
All the residents seemed to have
lost their heads Immediately after the
first big tremor of the earth. Follow
ing the first shock every one ran into
the streets and dashed for the open
squares.
Because of the general chaos it is
impossible to tell how many whites
nave been killed. The fact tLat a
person is missing and cannot be
found by relatives means nothing, for
only chance can bring friends and
relatives together in the crowds. All
the big hotels have been destroyed,
but It is believed that the guests es-
capped. Whether they did so will not
be known positively, however, for
several days.
The worst damage was done in the
business section of the city, where
big warehouses fell together as If
they had been built of thin paper.
The employees in those houses were
buried In the ruins, and as flames
broke out soon after the collapse of
the structures it is likely that the
bodies of the unfortunate ones will
never be recovered.
For several hours after the first
upheaval houses continued to fall
and many persons were injured by
falling walls, roofs and poles. Bust
ness was suspended, as all the mer-
chants deserted their shops and ran
for safety. So great was the terror
that none dared return to his place
of business, and the shops were left

CUTS RAILWAY MAIL PAY.
House Committee Votes to Lop OFF
$4,3OO,OOO Year.

Washington, D. C.-In response to
the persistent demand of Representa-
tives, the House Committee on Post
Offices and Post Roads has determined
to cut the pay of the railroads for
transporting the mails ten per cent
Under the present arrangement the
railroads receive about $4,000, 900
annually, and the cut of ten per cent.
will effect yearly saving of about
$4,300,000 to the Government.
This will be the first REIMBURSEMENT
of the railway mail pay since 1876.
There are many who believe that the
pay, even with the cut of ten per
cent, is still extravagantly high
The committee, by vote of twelve
to six, decided to make the reduction.
1t will not become effective until
after June 80.

Child's Set; Hat, Scarf and Muff.
There are an exceptional number
of pretty fur pushes this year, and
they are being very generally utilized
for the making of children's scarfs
and muffs. Here is very charming
little set (that includes also a hat
with band of the plush) that is as

wolves very little labor in the making.
In the illustration the long haired
polar bear plush is the sort used, but
the brown bear, the white astrakhan
and the ermine are especially to be
commended, while there are also
variety of others. In this case the
little hat is made with upper portion
of white cloth and is trimmed with
cord and loops of heavy silk; 1t can
be made all of cloth or all of plush,
however, if liked, and used separately
without the scarf and muff.
The scarf is made in two pieces
and requires simply to be wadded
and lined, while the muff consists of
