 He is a fine speaker. has the ability to hold the undivided attention of his audiences and is deeply in earnest. He speaks each time it Is said as if 1t were the last appeal he ever expected to make to sinners and in moment he expected to stand before the judg- ment bar of uod.

FILES ITS BRIEFS
GOVERNMENT OPPOSES wALsH's
 APPEAL FOR FREEDOM.
Mir. walsh, Former Chicago Banker, Was Recently Convicted for Mis-
 applfcatiOn of the Funds of His Bank

Chicago. May S.--Arguments of the Government in opposition to the at- tempt of John R. Walsh. under sem tence of i've years Imprisonment for alleged misapplication of the funs or his bank, the defunct Chicago National, to obtain freedom on appeal 10 the United States Circuit Court of Appeals are contained In the brief filed today by Assistant District Attorney Fletch- CT Dobbyns. in reply to the brief nled by counsel for the defendant month ago.
 The walsh banks, the Chicago Ma tionaI, the Equitable Trust Company, and the Home Savings. closed their doors Dee. A1s. 1905. Walsh was in- dicted two years later on ls2 counts. A year later the case came to triai m the United states District Court % ana verdict finding the defendant guilty on fifty-four counts was returned.
 Judge Anderson sentenced Walsh to i've years in the Federal prison at Fort Leavenworth. The appeal foiiowed !. oral arguments will be heard by Judges Grosscup. Baker and Seaman
 the last week In the month.
 It is said the walsh failure caused losses to himself. stockholders ana others. aggregating s16.000ye00.
 MT. Walsh says the prlel. wa enEa&eQ ftn tHS ptotAAceA~A number of struggling enterprises wnien were in desperate needs of funds Gen. erally speaking. his mode of procedure was that he would learn of some enter prise that was bankrupt, or about 70 go into bankruptcy, and he would pur- chase tt at a very low price. He would then organize a corporation. taking IT payment the capital stock or the new corporation. and sufaelent nufnper oi | bonds. which, at their face value Woulc
 more than reimburse him for the price | originally paid for the property. , T 1 the enterprise was successIul, Ms Walsh made the profit and the panF | got it's interest on the bonds, IT tns enterprise should fail. MT. Waisn TOE, nothing and the bank lost the amouh I of the Investment.
 "When the banks closed, MT. iWalsf
 had taken about si6.o0e.ooo of theil funds for his personal speculations nns I his name appeared no where on tn' books as debtor or borrower. ana tn' | true state of affafrs was not discoYeret l until the exhaustive examination wa made blythe experts. who were put IT control of the affairs of the banks o' | the Compterol1er of the Currency
 "The investigation developed tht
 fact that there was, of course. no mar
 ket for the bonds which Walsh issued on his struggling enterprises, and tha' | he made, market out of his bank
 where he placed the bonds at anywhere from 90 to 100. Tn this way. MT walsh would raise the money to pay for a property by selling it's owr i bonds."
