cup is offered for the aviator estab-

Latham's possession when he flew 144

pected that Walsh will be enroute to
the federal prison at Leavenworth,
Kansas, before night to begin his five
years term. Prosecutor Simms said
he would Immediately ask the circuit
court for a mandate committing Walsh
to prison.
Walsh spent all day yesterday sign
ing papers and settling financial mat
tiers connected with the failure of his
three banks in 1905. 1t is predicted
he will go to LeavenWOrth with the
knowledge that all the guarantors of
the s7,OOO,OOO note given by him will
have signed the agreement cancelling
the note, which settlement will clear
him of all debt and leave him half a
million dollars above his liabilities.
Walsh was convicted in January,
1908 on counts of an indictment against
him involving him in nine distinct
series of transactions, which preceded
the collapse of his great financial struc-
ture They consisted of loan of
bank money on memorandum notes,
purchase of bonds of Illinois Southern.
Wisconsin and Michigan railroads.
