English Critic Speaks of the "Sav.
nEe shyness'' of the Rich.
The professionally" rich are alike
In all countries c. X Chesterton, the
English literary critic, recently wrote
of this class in Great Britain, as fol-
lows:
The Englishman who travels to
Scotland first class in order to have "a
carriage to himself all the way may be
a very nice fellow, but no one can de-
scribe him as a civilized man. He Is
yielding to the savage shyness, the
skulking isolation, OF an Ojibway. The
same man has always n terror lest
strangers should speak to nina thing
which is the marx OF undeveloped and
illiterate tribesmen all over the world.
Any one who compares third-class
carriage full of navyies with a first
class full of olgarchs will at once re-
alize that the primary difference con-
sists simply in the fact that the third
class carriage Is more civilized than
the first-class carriage; that Is to say,
IL Is more social. more of a community
IL you emptied that third-class carriage
into a field its occupants could make
a picnic. II you carried that third
class carriage through the air To des
ert island its occupants could make a
nation. They ere used to talking with
each other as equals, dealing with each
other, fighting each other, and all The
other relations essential to a healthy
commonwealth. They know how to deal
with those of their company who con-
| stitute temporary problem But when
the bodies of six rich men set side by
side their souls do not sit side by side
at ALL Each OF their souls Is walking
| like a savage hunter in the silence Of
ancestral forests. For when all is said
and done, the great practical object Of
being a rich man Is to get out of the
| commonwealth altogether. 1t is to get
a position where the rules made for the
common good scarcely touch man at
all"

BANKER WALSH GUILTY.
Former Financial and Political Chief
in Chicago Is Convicted

In Cn1caSo Is COnVlcteo.
The jury in the case of John r.
Walsh, the Chicago banker and politi-
clan, found the defendant guilty. The
trial was one of the most bitterly con-
tested legal struggles known in the his
tory of the Chicago federal courts.
Walsh was a unique figure in the
history of Chicago. His growth has
been practically coincident with the
growth of the city. As a boy he came
there when the city was a village, and
as a man the village that he knew has
grown to as great proportions as him.
self. Irish emigrant, newsboy, small
merchant, politician. banker, railroad
president, and newspaper publisher
mark the chapters i'm the life of John
r. Walsh, central figure in the great
trial recently closed. 1t was in 1860
that he made his first great stride to-
ward his millions. The war coming,
and Walsh was the first man in the
west to see the great possibilities Of
general circulation of the newspapers.
In partnership with McNally he found
ed the Western News Company.
Dec. Is. 1905, it was announced that
Walsh's banking institutions had been
declared insolvent by the authorities.
With this announcement came the as
surance that the banks of the city had
rallied to the assistance of the deposit-

ors and would pay all Indebtedness.
until early in 1906. when matters be-
came serious for Walsh, and he was
arrested on complaint of the district
attorney. The main charge on which
that he on Nov. IS, 1905, in sworn re-
port to the comptroller, understated
the amount of the banks loans to its
officers and directors by nearly $1,000
COO, and oyerstated other loans to
generally similar amount. The result
was to hide the fact of $3,000,000 loans
by Walsh to himself. Tragedy and
scandal entered the case for the first
time when Attorney Hamill was made
the target for the weapon of Mrs
Beatrice Metcalfe, who followed the
lawyer out of the courtroom and fired
at him i'm an effort to kill him.
John II. Walsh's conviction of felony
in the seventy-first year of his age
came as shock to the community
where he has lived and prospered for
so long. Until a little over two years
ago his position in Chicago was, and
for many years had been, one of irfiu-
ence and responsibility. He was sup
posed TO be very rich man. He had
taken a part in every great enterprise
for the building up of the city. His
judgment was respected, his integrity
unquestiOned. And now, i'm his old
age, twelve of his fellow citizens, after
probing into his life, declare him
guilty of a serious crime, punishment
of which is Imprisonment
