Chlcaa-o. Nov. II. -John R. Walsh'a plea for Immunity will be decided Mon day. His attorneys will press the point closely, seeing In It th last hope Of the former banker to escape the haiard of being sent o the penitentiary by a Jury. The whole matter rests en the deci sion of Judge Anderson on the question of admissibility of the books of tbe cor poration known' as tne "waian rail roads" as evidence against the finan cier. ' " The defense Insists -that the govern ment baa no right to Introduce the books of tbe Indiana Southern and other railroads controlled by ' Walsh as evi dence against him on the ground that the roads were owned by Walsh him self and the constitution, by Its fourth snd fifth amendments vouchsafes to a defendent protection from testimony which he Is compelled to give against himself. Attorney! for Mr. Walsh take the stand that-use of the books of tbe Walsh roads seised by the government csnnot legail y be made against the de fendant, because that would be virtu ally compelling htm to testify against himself. The question of adducing evidence from tbe railroad ledgers waa unde cided by the court when adjournment waa taken. Without this evidence it Is predicted the efforts of the district attorney to secure a conviction against Walsh msy be hopeless. rknk examiner Edward P. Moxey. the government's main witness, was on ths stand when the mooted question came up for decision yesterday after boon. - MODIFY LAWS OF IMTIONAL GUARD Administration Wishes to Make Militia Second De fense of the Country.
