Chicago, Nov. 21. Wash's lawyers
offered a novel plea In the defense of
Walsh this morning:
That IT the king of finance "violates
the law and succeeds" he ought not to
be punished. They claim that If a
banker violates tho specific terms of
the law Intended to protect depositors,
to insure the protection, that he ob
serves the spirit, though he ignores th
law's letter.
Prosecutor Dobyns characterized th
sensational plca-ss "Napoleonic theory
or military expedient, that the success
Justifies the disobedience."
The defense was based on Moxey's
admission that on nearly $1,000,000 of
collateral In which Walsh had borrowed
from the Chicago National bank he real
ized the amount this bank advanced.

companies requesting- tho noncmploy
ment of Austrlans and other foreigners
who have been working In these mills
all the summer, is being circulated. Tho
reason alleged to be given for such a
step is that these people belong to a
cheap labor class.
Many of the mlllmen say that thy
will refuse to sign any such petition, as
they consider these Austrian workmen
desirable people, men who want tho
same wages as any American' citizen re
quires. Thoy further say that not the
Austrlans. but Americans, leaving small
farms outside of town to winter in tho
mills, are the cheap labor people. If
