PARDONS DENIED
BIG BANKERS
PRESIDENT SAYS NATIONAL
BANKING LAWS MUST BE
RlGIDLY UPHELD.
TAKES FIRM STAND
BOTH MORSE AND WALSH MAKE
STRONG PLEA FOR Ex-
EcUTIvE cLEMENCY.

Washington. - President Taft has
denied the application for the pardon
of Charles w. Morse of New York and
of John r. Walsh of Chicago, the two
most prominent bankers ever con-
victed and sentenced to federal pris-
ons under the national banking law
Not only did the President refuse
to pardon them, but he also declined
to exercise any other executive clem-
ency in these cases or to shorten the
sentences imposed by the courts.
In denying the pardons the Presi-
dent took a firm stand that the ma
tional 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, shows moral turpi-
tude of that insidious and dangerous
kind, 10 punish which the national
banking laws were especially en-
acted
Ir considering the case of Morse,
the President said:
"From a consideration of the facts
in each case | have no doubt that
Morse should have received a heavier
sentence than Walsh. Indeed, the
methods taken by Morse tend to show
that more keenly than Walsh did he
realize the evil that he was doing"
The Presidents denial of the par
don applications does not mean that
the men must stay in prison until the
end of their terms. Walsh began
sentence of five years in the Leaven-
worth pentitentiary in January, 1910,
and under the federal parole law is
eligible for parole next September.
the Presidents action having no bear
ing whatever upon the future applica-
tion for parole.
Morse also began his fifteen year
term in the Atlanta penitentiary in
January, 1910. In denying his appli-
cation the President granted leave to
renew it after January l, 1913. Under
the parole law Morse would be eligi-
BILE tor release in 1915.
Both Morse and Walsh made strong
efforts to have the President exercise
clemency. He was besieged by friends
and attorneys of both. Mrs. Morse got
up monster petition, which was
signed by scores of members of Con-
gress and other leading persons. For
mer Senator Hale of Maine did much
in her behalf The pleas of i'll health
and reimbursement of all depositors in
the Morse and Walsh banks were
made in both cases.

Nearly eighteen hundred people are
employed in the plate printing room,
one of the busiest departments in the
bureau. The ink Is rolled over the
plate, filling all the depressions as
well as covering its smooth surface.
The pigment is then rubbed off with
the bare hand, leaving the lines filled
and the plate is put on a press, a
damp sheet of paper placed over 1t

the design, with all the details of lines

White House Incident.

Funny things happen at the White
House as well as any place else. Some
how or other there managed to get in
with the other guests at the reception
the other night a man in Jim Swing
er coat. Now, Jim Swinger coat is
all right when it is clean, and this
one was-in fact, 1t fitted its owner
very nicely, indeed-but somehow his
Prince Albert and Jim Swinger did
not seem to be related to his other
gear; his linen was immaculate, his
face well-shaven, and his hair combed;
but when the head usher caught sight
OF the gentleman's Jim Swinger, he
also caught sight of a regulation NOV
ing-picture style boots and pair of
delicately-striped gray trousers. The
gentleman with the Jim Swinger real
ly looked like moving picture of
cowboy, sure enough. AS the unwrit-
ten law of the White House is for
evening dress only at receptions, the
gentleman was invited to seek the
outer atmosphere. which he did with
out protest.

Miss Boardman took the place, pri-
marily not for pay but because she saw
the possibilities it offered for good,
substantial work A sister-in-law of
Senator Crane and enjoying a warm
friendship with the Tafts, she is rich
in her own right.
Miss Boardman, it will be remem-
bered, accompanied Mr.. and Mrs. Taft
on that now famous Oriental trip. The
party arrived in Japan just after the
campaign in Manchuria and her eXpe-
rience at the Red Cross camp there
so impressed Miss Boardman that she
at once confided to Mr. Taft her de-
sire to get in active touch with this
utilitarian body.
Mr.. Taft was successful in securing
her a place on their return and she
has since been honored by King Vic
tor Emmanuel of Italy because of her
loyal and active work at the time of
the Messina calamity.
Miss Boardman is a frequent visit
or during the summer to Beverly. Last
season she had entire charge of Mrs.
Taft's visiting lists at the capital At
Washington she lives with her parents,

The National Red Cross will doubt

and lend every possible aid toward the
furtherance of its noble ends.
