Death by Accident of Ex-Governor Francis
Thomas.

The Cumberland Cipizian gives the fol-
lowing account of the accident:
Ex-Governor Thomas had quite num-
Dor of men engaged in getting out locust
posts, for fencing his land. and they were
at work on the mountain side along the line
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. On
Saturday afternoon about half past two, he
visited these men for the purpose of paying
them off, and while walking alone the track
about one mile east of the Frankville Sta
him from the east, and stepped over to the
south track to avoid it. At the same mo-
ment "helper" engine came upon him
from the west, "tender" foremost, the
approach of which he had not noticed and
did not hear. There is a short curve at
this point, and the engineer says that as
his engine rounded the curve, he saw Gov.
Thomas walking on the track, with his
arms folded behind him, and his head bent,
in meditative mood. 1t was too late to
give An alarm or to check the speed of the
engine, and in moment it struck him in
the back, knocking him about twenty feet,
on to a pile of railroad bars beside the
road. The locomotive was stopped as soon
as possible, and assistance summoned, but
life was extinct The body was not mutt
idLCu, DuG ri ocFcIc COuJuSlOu WAS lOuuQ on
the back Of the head, and several near the
spinal column.
Hon. Francis Thomas was in his seven
tyseventh year, having been born on the
3rd of February, 1899 He was native of
Frederick county, Md, and was educated
at st. Johns College, Annapolis. In 1920,
when MIR. Thomas was twenty one years of
age, he was admitted to the bar. He rep
resented his district in the State Legisla-
ture from 1922 to 1927, and also in 1929,
when he was chosen Speaker of the House.
In 1889 he was President of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Canal.
From 1881 to 1871 he was member of
Congress-, and again from 1861 to 1869. In
1871 he was elected Governor and in 1850
he was a member of the State Constitu-
tional Convention of that year.
The space covered by his long and useful
career renders it impossible in the narrow
limits of newspaper, to do either justice
to his public services, or to give more than
an outline of what all these services were.
His public acts and utterances are part of
the history Of the country, and if the name
of Francis Thomas is not hereafter num-
bered among those of the great men of our
day, it will not be because he has not been
conspicuous figure and active worker in
his generation; nor yet, because his mind
was not of that mould that entities him to
it, but because he had so little regard for
what he world calls glory.

90; nays, Bannon and Hepbron-2. Mr..
Bannon remained docile during the debate
to-day. Perhaps he has been admonished
that his silence is desirable by his political
associates.
In the House, on motion by Mr.. Rooms,
the judiciary committee was requested to
report whether the election laws may not
be so amended as to provide for the protec
ton of voters from violence and intimida-
ton.
On motion of Mr.. Scott, the Comptroller
was directed to furnish a statement of the
disbursements of the appropriation to the
militia, under the act of 1874.
An order was adopted to allow travelling
committees their actual expenses only
This is the substance of the order of Mr..
Baldwin on the subject.
An order was also adopted requiring the
State Board of Education to furnish a de-
tailed statement of what county boards are
in debt, to what amount, and what are in
arrears to teachers, and for what sums and
length of time, and that the Comptroller
furnish the amounts paid, loanod, or made
over by the State to every institution of
learning since the adoption of the Consti-
tuition of 1867, and the authority under
which it was SO paid, &c.
MI. links resolution for inquiring into
the charge of lobbying before the last leg
isature, came up, when Mr.. Robinson sub
mitted substitute, covering every conceiv-
able subject, which to thoroughly investi-
gate would require many years, instead of
the remaining seventy days of the session.
This substitute kills the investigation of
the fifteen per cent lobbying of last session,
and it is singular that Mr.. Robinson should
ask for special committee, which his
friend Bannon says are created /" for white
washing or conviction" and as it is hardly
possible that Mr.. Robinson contemplates
convictlng the great lobbyist, the other
result follows. Messrs. NALL and Kinks
opposed the substitute, but without avail
An effort was made by Mr.. NALL to get
four additional members of the committee
on elections taken from the minority, thus
