WASHINGTON, D. C.-Former Sen
w ator John l.. Wilson of the state
OF Washington was one of the most
peppery members of congress that
ever sat in either house. Mr.. Wilson's
reputation extends over both sides of
the capitol, he having served in the
~Fifty-first congress in the house as the
first representative from the then
new state of Washington, and in 1895
he was elected to the senate, where he
served one term. Mr.. Wilson is now
the owner Of the Seattle Post-Intelli-
gencer, and at the same time is heav-
lily interested in Washington state in
dustries and real estate.

Wilson delivered himself of some

Walsh IN PRISON
AGED CHICAGO NATIONAL BANK
PRESIDENT LOSES FIGHT
FOR LIBERTY
STARTED LIFE AS 'NEWSY'
AND AT ZENITH OF HIS CAREER
RANKED WITH BIG MEN
IN FINANCE

Chicago. Jan. 1S-John r. Walsh,
aged Y, who began his career as a
newsboy and later controlled millions
in banks, railroads, newspapers and
coal fields, started for the federal Dri-
son at Leavenworth, Kansas, at 6 o.
clock this evening to begin his five
years Imprisonment for misapplyinS
the funds of the Chicago National
bank, of which he was president.
His journey followed denial by the
United States circuit court of appeals
of his petition for a new trial on the
ground of alleged misconduct of the
jurors.
The final chapter Of the financier's
long fight against a prison term Is
summarized as follows:
10 a. m.-Appeared in his office at
Grand Central station and conducted
business as if nothing unusual was
pending.
11:40 a. m.-Summoned to a down
town hotel, where he heard over the
telephone that his petition for a new
trial was denied, and the hope of pre-
venting his going to the penitentiary
was lost.
4 p. m.-Heard read the mittimus
committing him to prison.
SIS p. m.-Bade his wife, daughter
and intimate friends goodbye at his
Calumet avenue home and started for
the station in his automobile.
6 p. m.-Left on the st. Paul rail
road for Leavenworth, where he is
due to arrive at 10 O'Clock tomorrow
morning.
While Walsh was en- route in charge
Of United States Marshal Hoy and
Deputy Marshal Middleton. and ac-
companied by his son, John w. Walsh.
Lee Babcock, n DR.. L. Blake Bald
win, sons-in-law, and E. C. Ritsher,
his financial counsel, a rumor was cir
culated that Judge Sanborn of the
federal district court had been sum
moned from Madison, and that James
Hamilton Lewis would endeavor to
OBTAIN a writ from him SO as to be
able to take Walsh off the train.
The ground on which the writ might
be asked was not revealed, bit 1t
was reported an allegation would be
made that other than members of the
grand jury were present when Walsh
was indicted.
1t was learned, however, that San
born's jurisdiction ended at the Hi
nOis boundary line, which the train
that carried Walsh was scheduled to
cross at Rock Island at 1926. After
that, it was said, any action to OBJ
tain his liberty would have to be
brought in another federal district
on the ground that Walsh was under
illegal restraint"
Walsh started for prison exactly
two years after he was convicted. In
the courtroom where Judge Lands
had ordered Walsh to be present at
the formal entering of the commit
ment the scene was dramatic.
Keep up our spirits said his
friends.
Il will answered the prisoner. 81
will go down there with the same
spirit | have shown right along"
Walsh was thereupon hurried in
an automobile, to his home, babe his
wife goodbye and was taken from
there to the train.

STOCKS ARE Dull
Although Some Features OF interest
Were OBSERVABLE in Yester.
days Dealings.

New York, April 4.--Some features
|of interest were discernable through
the intense dizziness Of the days deal
ings in stocks, although the net price
changes were inconsequential. One
was the extreme thinness Of the mar
ket at periods when there were any
stirring animation. This was strik-
ingly manifest in the wide fluctua-
tons at which orders were executed
in the little furry which succeeded
the assembling of the shpreme. court.
There had been some selling by
bear traders in the first hour on the
chance that a decision adverse to
the American Tobacco Company
would be handed down. The hour of
converting court was chosen for the
covering Of these short contracts,
without waiting for definite knowl-
edge from the supreme court. A
point OF interest was that in filling
these buying orders there was a fiuc-
tuation from 1865 to 1861 on the
purchase of 500 share block of
Union Pacific. In several other
stocks in which the market usually
Is broad there were variations of "
to n between sales.
The question was suggested
whether the interstices in the market
thus disclosed might be due in part
to the going into force today of the
new reform rules of the stock ex-
change, directed against manipula-
tive practices. The rule most relied
on for that purpose forbids the ignor-
ing or orders for 100 share units in
executing orders for larger amounts,
a. favorite device of the manipulators
was to put I'm an order for q large
amount Of stock, for "all or none"
which was effective often in moving
prices without any actual transaction
being necessary. 1t was inferred that
the new rule, in discouraging such
orders, might be responsible for the
open spaces bare of orders that We're
encountered when prices moved to-
day with any decision. Wide fields
of the federal governments campaign
against the bucket shops might ac-
count for another reduction of Gus
tomary activities.
The relapse of the market into stag
nation after is became known that
no American Tobacco decision would
come from Washington today gave
force to the supposition Of other
causes for the neglect of the mar
ket.
