ST Louis, March 1S.-John r. Walsh
OF Chicago the former Chicago bank
er now in the federal prison at Leav-
enworth, Kansas, is suffering severe
ly from heart trouble and his health
has not been good at any time since
he went to prison, according to War
den X. w. McClaughry of that peni-
tentiary. who attended court in st.
Louis today.
Walsh is employed i'm the identi-
tcation bureau at the prison for such
work as he can do, but Warden Nc
Claughry says his health does not per-
NIT him to do much.
Walsh is 7S years old, and has been
q personal friend of the warden for
many years, from the time McClaughry
was chief of police i'm Chicago in 1891 =
1898. Because of his advanced age
and poor health, Walsh was given light
work at the prison.
walsh is a sick man." said Warden
McClaughry. "He is suffering from a
severe affection of the heart and is
able To do very little work. | have put
him i'm the identification bureau, where

will improve, though it has not done
so up to this time.

banker, has about two years more to
serve. He is i'm the record department
Both men are, of course, model prison
ers. We do not have trouble with that
class of men. 1t is the vicious Grim
inal and the ignorant man that causes
trouble in prisons. Yesterday we had
thirty-five bankers in the prison"
Discussing the violation of the ma
tional banking laws by bankers, War
den McClaughry declared that in his
opinion nearly so per cent. of the SEN
tences imposed for such violations re-
sul-ed from ignorance of the law
Il am OF the opinion" he said, "that
the government ought to test the quail
ifcations of a man before it permits
him to so into the banking business"
