u. S. Circuit Court
Confirms Sentence
of Walsh
MUST SERVE FIVE YEARS
Manipulated Funds of Three
Banks and Railroads
Controlled.

Chicago, H.. Oct. 5.-The verdict of
the trial court which found John r.
Walsh guilty of misapplication OF the
funds of the Chicago National Bank
and sentenced him to five years in
Leavenworth was today confirmed by
the L. s. circuit court of appeals. The
rise and fall of Walsh who is now y
years of age, is an interesting chapter
in American finance. Three years ago,
Walsh owned three banks, the Chi
cagO National, the Equitable Trust and
the Home Savings, which were closed
by the comptroller of the currency in
1908. He also owned nearly all the
stock in seven railroads, three coal
companies, three quarries and other
companies. 1t is said that all these
were bankrupt when he bought con-
troll for a song. Then he organized
a holding company to buy these secur-
tiles from himself taking stocks as
payment, thus, acquiring for nothing,
thirty millions of stocks and bonds.
Then carried away by the dream of a
great railway system which should in
clude all these holdings, he borrowed
immense sums from his banks to
finance the companies, using memo
randum notes signed by clerks who
were not notified and depositing as col
lateral stock of his companies. When
the banks closed, sixteen millions of
the deposits were represented by Sc
curities of Walsh's enterprises.
I His council have thirty days to file
an application for new hearing be,
| fore the court of appeals, until which
time Walsh is out on $4,000 bail.

BRING IN A UNAN-
|MOUS VERDICT
Jury In Montgom-
cry Case Renders .
Decision
EVIDENCE SHOWS SUICIDE
Because of the High Stand
ing of Jurymen Verdict
Meets With Favor.

The six men who were called upon
to look into the matter of the death of
Miss Gertrude Montgomery and de-
termine the cause of death, have after
careful and lengthy deliberation and
labor arrived at a final conclusion.
Shortly after six o'clock last night a
verdict was agreed upon the unani-
NOUS decision being that the unfor.
tunate school teacher came to her
death at her own hands and with her
own weapon.
During the afternoon, DIR. J. A. Mas
sic appeared before the jurors, bring
ing with him a miscroscope through
which he showed the jurors some of
the dead girls hair showing it to be
burned and swollen from the effects of
almost direct contact with the flash
from the revolver with which she was
shot. The testimony Of DR.. Massie,
together with the evidence of burned
hair which practically upset the
strongest point of the murder theory
aided the jury greatly in arriving at a
verdict. AS the standing of the jury
men in the community is of the high
est order, their verdict has been ac
cepted by the public in a most favor
able manner.
