Walsh Begin His Sentence.

Chicago, Oct. 23-Revelations were
made that the government secretly is
preparing to go before the United
States court of appeals and ask that
mandate be issued for John R.
Walsh, the convicted banker and that
he be taken to Fort Leavenworth,
Kan, to begin his sentence in the
federal prison during the tendency OF
further proceedings to save him from
conyict's cell.
The presence of Attorney John 8.
Miller, chief counsel for Walsh, to-
gether with United States District At
torney Edwin Sims, in the United
States court of appeals, gave rise to
statements that something definite In
the bankers case was about to result.
Then came an announcement that the
matter would be taken up Tuesday.
Here is the governments plan as 1t
was disclosed.
To go before the court Of appeals
and demand that Walsh's bond be can
celled.
That mandate be issued for the
banker
That he be taken to Fort Leaven-
worth. Kan, and confined In the fed
eral prison during the tendency of
the suit.
That he has had ample time to make
a defense. and that he should be de-
MED his liberty after his fighting
against going TO prison.
That Walsh this week made a trip
to New York for reasons unknown,
thus leaving the state while under
heavy bail. may also figure by the gov
eminent in support of its contentious
that he should be denied his liberty.

ALLIANCE FORMED
TO BEAT CANNON
Insurgents VIII Join Democrats
to Defeat Speaker.

Washington, Oct. 23.-TheTe Is a
compact between the Democrats OF the
house and the so-caIled Republican
insurgents" to control the organiza-
ton of the next house. This was re-
vealed here by southern member OF
the house, who will not consent to the
use of his name, but who is high in his
party's councils.
This compact contemplates throwing
the insurgent votes to Champ Clark
for speaker in the Sixty-second con-
gress, in case the Democrats do not
themselves have a majority in the
house. 1t contemp1ates concert of &C
ton between the insurgents and the
Democrats in the remaining sessions
IF the Sixty-first congress.
Instead of walking out of a party
convention, or in some other way for
mally severing their connection with
their party, these insurgent Republi-
cans, according to the statement of
this Democrat, will claim allegiance
to the Republican party, be elected as
Republicans to the Sixty-second CON
gress and then desert in the organiza-
ton of the house. They propose to
make "Cannonism" their excuse for
such action
This action foreshadows one of the
most interesting and crucial party sit.
uations the leaders have had to con
front in recent years. The speaker has
been accused of reading these men out
of the party. or of attempting to read
them out. If the plan outlined by the
southern Democratic congressman is
carried out, the insurgents will read
themselves out of the party.

Mrs. o. III. p. Belmont. the New

the woman's suffrage movement, has
written a story book for children
which is almost ready for the publish
er's hands, and II Ii were not for the
great demands made upon her time
by suffrage work the set of tales would
have been among this years holiday

As a story writer Mrs. Belmont APP
pears in new guise. for few IL any
Of her most intimate friends have had
the slightest inkling of this gift The
book was begun several months ago
and has been written for her own
pleasure and for the entertainment of
her grandchildren. the two sons of
the Duchess of Marlborough
The stories have pleased this audi
ence Of two, the youthful Marquis of
Blanford and Lord Ivor Spencer
Churchill, both of whom have listened
eagerly to the recital of stirring tales
OF the two heroes and one heroine who
are the principal characters in the
book 1t was her grandchildren's alb
sorbed interest in these stories, which
they have clamored for ever since they
were old enough to listen to stories,
that suggested the idea of collecting
the tales and presenting them in book
form for others to read, for, Mrs. Bel
mont explained, IF these tales of
other children give pleasure to. my
grandchildren might they not inter
est and entertain others?'
Stories of the Vanderbilts.
The charm of this little volume is
that they are all true stories, being a
faithful chronicle of the doings of Mrs.
Belmont's own children when they
were growing up, so that when the
sons of the Duchess of Marlborough
listen to these stories of the FRANKS
and the childish plays of the two
heroes and the heroine in the book
they are really hearing about their
own mother and their two uncles. Mr..
W. X Vanderbilt. Jr., and Mr.. Harold
Sterling Vanderbilt.
The book will be handsomely illus
trated. Mrs. Belmont says. she herself
having arranged personally with well
known French artist to make the
drawings, and it will be a volume Of
unusual beauty as well as Of unusual
interest.
1t has not been decided by the au-
thor to what purpose the funds from

1t would not be at all surprising !
they were devoted to the cause of W.

LOST IN DESERT
Hunt For Man, Woman and Three
Chiidren


Children.
San Bernardino. Cal, Oct. %. -
Searching parties are hNnting along
the ancient trails of the Mojave des-
eTt for a man and a woman and three
children. whose tracks were discovered
by T. Fl. Kellogg, a rancher. Kellogg
was riding over the Carisho creek
country when he came across trails
that indicated to his experienced eye
that the drivers were lost Following
the tracks for some distance, he came
up with a camp wagon and a buggy
and further away horse dying OF
thirst
Pressing still further on he discov-
cred the tracks of a man, woman and
three children, retreating and waver-
ing as though the travellers did not
know which way to turn in their hunt
for water against a desperately grow
ing need. The trails followed the bed
of a dry creek for miles and then led
to the country from which few trav
elers are ever heard from again.
Who the travellers are or what was
their purpose in attempting to cross
the desert is not known. No word has
been received from the searching par
ties
