is the Oldest Elk in the state. The
honor is claimed by many for A. /.

Mr.. Brown, known to every man, wo-

children, had a clear field a day or
two ago, when a rival at Elkhart was
heard from. The latter says that he
is not only an Elk, but six years the
senior of Uncle Al. Mr.. Brown is a
retired farmer. His wife is dead and
he lives with a son. The enthusiastic
Elks Of Valparaiso induced Uncle Az
to join their local lodge. After making
thorough inquiries they let it become
known that the Oldest Elk in the state,
if not in the country, belonged to their
lodge. Later the challenge came from

brief, the history of John R. Walsh of Chicago. Walsh
was born in Ireland in 1887 and at the age OF Is found
his way to Chicago, naturally without a dollar, and sold
papers for a living. When the civil war broke out he
started in competition with the American News Company
of New York. In 1866 the Western News Company was
founded as a result Of negotiations between the Amer1-
can News Company and Mr.. Walsh, the latter assuming
the duties of manager. This was the foundation of Mr..
Walsh's success.
In 1881 he founded the Chicago National Bank. The
institution grew rapidly and gained the reputation of
a political bank as a result Of the large deposits OF
public funds obtained through Mr.. Walsh's influence
among politicians Of both parties. Subsequently he es-
tablished the Home Savings Bank and the Equitable
Trust Company, and was accounted one of the success
full men of Chicago.
At one time he owned a controlling interest in the
old Chicago Herald and later established the Chicago
Chronicle, as a Democratic paper. The free silver agi-
tation caused him to change it to a Republican organ.
Shortly after launching the Chronicle he conceived the
idea OF, a great system of railroads tapping the coal
fields of Indiana, Illinois and Missouri and extending
also into Michigan and Wisconsin,, and it was to finance
those schemes that he committed the banking irregu-
larities for which he is now serving a fve-year sentence
in Fort Leavenworth penitentiary.

John R. Walsh, 70 years old, bank president, railroad
magnate, politician and publisher, whose name was once
a synonym of all that is powerful and influential in the
business world, is in the Federal prison at Fort Leaven-
worth, where he exchanged his name for a mineral and
took his place among the thousand convicts there.
This man, who for more than four years fought a losing
battle for his freedom, lost in the final legal skirmish
when the United States Circuit Court of Appeals denied
his application for a new trial, after the Supreme Court
OF the United States refused to consider his case. Four
years ago Walsh's handling of the deposits in the bank
of which he was president attracted the attention of
fnanciers, and as a result his bank was closed and his
property was taken as security to save a panic when
the banks doors were shut. He was eventually con-
victed of misappropriating the funds of the bank and
sentenced to five years in prison. Of his vast fortune
of $4,000, 900 he was able to save only 100000. Walsh
started life in Chicago as a newsboy 1 ~

sion:
Investigation showed beyond a doubt
that the conditions existing in the
United States are duplicated in the
principal countries of Europe. Prices
for the necessities of life are also in
creasing abroad. Their ratio of ad-
