w ASHfNGTON, Jan. 1.-THE State
Department received official confirma-
MON today of the reported death of Uni
ted States Consul Ashby, at Colon. The
notice came from United States Consul
General Gudger, at Panama It was a
brief statement that Ashby had been
drowned, without any particulars of the
event, and an announcement that a
man would be temporarily put in the
consulate.
William w. Ashby was native OF
Spotsylva mia county, Va, about As
years of age. He was a newspaper
man by profession and was extremely
popular with his associates in Wash

Washington as correspondent for Vdr-
ginia newspapers. He was a Republi-
can in politics and received his first APP
pointment in the consular service under
