John r. Walsh Released
From Prison After he Had
Served Three of Five Year
Sentence.
MISAPPLIED FUNDS
UNDER HIS CHARGE
Banker Morse, Convicted of
Similar Charge, Gave up
Fight for Pardon-Walsh
Depositors Paid.
National News Association)

WASHINGTON, Oct 1O-John r..
Walsh, the former Chicago banker
and railroad builder. was today grant
ed a parole. He will be released from
the Federal prison at Leavenworth,
Kansas, where he was sentenced in
1908 to serve 5 years following his
conviction at Chicago.
Walsh's case, in many respects, was
similar to that of Charles w. Morse,
the New York banker, serving term
in the Federal prison at Atlanta, Geor-
gia. Morse recently gave up his fight
for a pardon.
The decision to parole Walsh was
reached as the result of conferences
held in Leavenworth by R. 2. Ladow,
chairman of the board of parole.
There were about fifty applicants
ahead of him and his case was not
reached until today.
Walsh was found guilty of having.
as president, misapplied the funds Of
the Chicago National bank. Follow
ing his conviction a petition for his
pardon was circulated throughout the
country. 1t was stated that he had
already served a part of his time, that
he was "a years old and suffering
from an incurable disease.
The sentiment of the middle west
was strong for his pardon. 1t was
pointed out that all of the depositors
had been paid in full and at once.
While the Department of Justice refus-
ed to affirm or deny the parole OF
Walsh it was learned on the best
authority the parole board which con.
sidered the case at Leavenworth rec
commended Walsh be given his free
dom and the Attorney General Wick
ersham had approved the finding OF
the board. 1t is the policy of the de-
partment to never announce the names
of prisoners who are paroled.

JURY TO DECIDE ON
GUILT OF DUBOIS
Dubois Reputation Admitted
Bad by johnson in Clos
ing Argument.

The fate of Earl Dubois, the former
Milton young man charged with burg
larry was placed in the hands of the
jury this afternoon. after Judge Fox
had read his instructions. The entire
morning session was taken up by At
torney Henry U. Johnson, counsel for
the defense. Mr.. Johnson in his final
arguments attempted to prove that
Dubois has good character al
though he admitted that his reputa-
ton was bad. Referring to this he
strongly denounced Daniel Drischel's
acts in arresting Dubois on previous
charges. He declared that Drischel had
arrested Dubois on suspicion follow
ing the murder of man by the name
der of Mrs. Frank Allison and that he
had been released on both occasions
but that his reputation was bad and
that Drischel had made it so.
Mr.. johnson also recited the testi-
mony given by the witnesses for the
proof of an alibi on the night when the
robbery is said to have been commit
ted. In summing up his arguments
Mr.. Johnson said that Gunsaulia is the
guilty man and that everything ten.
ded to prove Dubois innocent. men.
tioning that all of the goods stolen
was found in Gunsaulia's home and
nothing found III the Dubois home.
Following the argument for the de-
fense Attorney Ray Shiveley, who is
assisting the state in the prosecution
placed the final arguments for the
state before the jury.
In his instructions to the jury the
judge cited the laws on the charge OF
burglary and laid especial stress or
the importance Of the jury's consider
