WALSH AND MORSE PARDONS DENIED BY THE PRESIDENT Taft Firmly States Banking Laws Must Be
 Upheld ALL CLEMENCY IS
 FIRMLY REFUSED Record of Cases Show Moral Turpi- tude of Dangerous Kind and Bankers Must Pay for
 Their Crime

Washington, May 24.-President Taft tonight denied the applications for the pardon of Charles W. Morse of New York and John R. Walsh of Chicago, the two most prominent bankers ever convicted and sent to federal peninten- tiaries under the national banking laws. Not only did the President refuse to pardon either Morse of Walsh, but he also declined at this time to exercise any other sort of executive clemency in these cases or to shorten the sem tences imposed upon the two men. In deyning the pardons, the Presi- dent took firm stand that the national banking laws or any other laws must be upheld when they affect the rich man, even more than when they affect the poor The record in the Walsh case, the President said in a long opin- ion, shows moral -turpftude of that in- sidious and dangerous kind, to punish which the national banking laws were especially enacted"
 In considering the case of Morse, the President said that from considera- tion of the facts in each case. have no dobut that Morse should have re- ceived a heavier sentence than Walsh. Indeed, the methods taken by Morse tend to show that rlore keenly than Walsh did he realize the evil of what he was doing.'
 In his opinion in the Walsh case tho President protested against the failure to discriminate between legitimate business and improper gain. "The truth is" said lie, that in the mad rush for wealth in the last few decades, the lines between

proper gain from undue use of trust con trol over other peoples property and money has sometimes been dimmed, and the interest of society requires that when ever opportunity offers, those charged with the enforcement of the law should emphasize tine distinction between honest business and dishonest breaches of trust.
 Eligible for Parole
 The Presidents denial of the pardon applications of Morse and Walsh does not mean that they must stay in prison until the end of their terms. Walsh began a sentence of five years in the Leaven- worth penitentiary in January, 1910. and for parole next September. the Presi- dents action having no bearing what ever upon future application for parole Morse began his 15-year term in the At lanta penitentiary in January, 1910. also In denying his application the President granted leave to renew it after January 1, 1913. Under the parole law Morse would be eligible for release in 1915.
 Both Morse and Walsh made strong efforts to have the President exercise cle- mency. He was besieged by friends and attorneys of both men. Mrs. Morse got up monster petition. which was signed by scores of members of Congress and other prominent persons. Former Sena- tor Hale of Maine did much in her behalf The pleas of i'll health and reimburse ment of all depositors in the Morse and Walsh banks were made in both cases.
 Both applications were scanned close ly at the department of justice by At torney General Wickersham and his as- sistants and both were read with care by the President himself. His action to- night was in accordance with the recom- n,endations of MT. Wickersham
 In denying the Walsh application the President said in part:
 John R. Walsh was convicted of mis- application of the Chicago National bank while its president.
 His pardon is asked First, because his violations of laws were technical and did not involve moral turpitude and se- cured him no financial gain; second, be- cause all the depositors of his banks were paid through the sacrifice of his private fortune: third, because he was, in doing what he did, attempting to upbuild in- dustries of substantial benefit to the country: fourth. because he Is an old man in i'll health. not likely to live long and one WnO IdS Dofnc d SOou Teputa- ton and lived life of simplicity and not of self indulgence.

ALDR|CH MONETARY REFORM |NDORSED MacVeagh Pleads for Non
 Partisan Support ADDRESSES BANKERS Attacks Aldrich as Tariff Maker But Praises Him as Monetary Re-
 former-Bankers Respon-
 sible for Panics
ADDRESSES BANKERS

Kansas City, May 24.-Approximately 1000 Missouri and Kansas bankers, who are holding their annual conventions here and in Kansas City, Kas., respect lively met In joint session tonight to hear Secretary MacVeagh of the treas ury and other widely known men speak.
 Among those who addressed the meeting were David R. Francis. for mer governor of Missouri; w. J. Bailey. former governor of Kansas, and F. o. Watts of Nashville. Tenn. president of the American Bankers association.
 Secretary MacVeagh of the treasury, speaking before the assembled Bankers associations of Missouri and Kansas, to- night indorsed the plan for monetary reform proposed by Senator AIdrich, and made a plea for all bankers to support it In a public spirited, nons partisan way.
 While he paid a high tribute to MT. AL drich as a monetary reformer. Secretary MacVeagh was frank in saying he did not agree with the tariff views of the former senator from Rhode Island, and added that he thought Mir Aldrch himself might have changed his opinions some. whether MT. Aldrich entertains, with his old enthusiasm, the tariff views with which his name Is so conspicuously asso- ciated I do not know. I half suspect he does not. But we must get away from MT. AIdrich as a tariff builder before we can understand him as a monetary re- former. As a monetary reformer he is assuredly one of the best examples
 T am saying these things and making these determinations between the two Aldrichs because he is part of the dis cussion. I am trying to put you right as to his relations to this question, because his personality enters into the case We of the west are liable to be thinking of an Aldrich tariff bill when we are con- sidering an Aldrich monetary plan. But this would be a costly mistake"
 Secretary MacVeagh said the plan of the monetary commission must be consid- cred dispassionately. He asserted that it had taken long time to convince bank CTS that banking was not private busi- ness, but a public one. Responsibility for panics, he said, rested. with the bank CTS themselves.

 '"All the losses and the personal and family disappointments and discomforts and suffering must be charged to the bankers he said. 'One may. say that the government is partly responsible also, but the government would legisate If the bankers wisely advised it.'
 Taking up the clements, of banking, Secretary Macveagh discussed currency and reserves and traced the study of the currency problem in the United States down to the work of the monetary com |anission and the suggested plan for the creation of the reserve association of America.

 MT.
