kARYLANDS NEXT
GOVERNOR IN VISIT
TO THE PRESIDENT
With Congressman Parran,
Asks Selection of Hanna
as Collector.

Governor-elect Phillips Lee Goulds-
borough. CONGRESSMAN Thomas Parran.
Republican State chairman John B.
Hanna, and Or. Brice w. Goldsborougii,
all Of Maryland. were in conference
with the President this morning.
The Goyernor-elect, the Congressman
and DR.. Goldsborough came to WASH
ington to recommend the appointment
of Mr.. Hanna as Collector OF Internal
Revenue for Maryland, and the entire
party recommended the transfer Of Min
lister John w. Garrett from Venezuela
to Argentina.
President Taft greeted the visitors
heartily and warmly congratulated MIR.
Goldsborough upon his victory. He as
'sared the Governor elect that the coun-
try had had It's eyes on his fight, and
that in 1t the Republican party had
found much to congratulate itself upon
Tor the splendid victory which Mr..
Goldsborough had led.
i1 Taft Gives Promise.
The President promised to give lhe
recommendation in favor of Mr.. Hanna
and Minister Garrett the fullest consid-
Grafton He has known the State chair
man personally for years, and holds him
in the highest esteem. He also undep-
stands that if he would strengthen the
party in Maryland, and FOLLOW up the
achievement of the fast election, he
would do well to reward the leaders
CT that campaign as much as Is prac-
tfcable.
During the interview with the Presi-
dent concerning the collectorship va
cancy, Mr.. Hanna withdrew from II.
He left the whole matter in the hands
of his friends, the governor-elect and
Congressman Parran. They pressed the
matter vigorously, and while they re-
ceived nc promise from the President of
the appointment, they are encouraged to
believe 1t will be made.
The only opposition to Mr.. Hanna has
come from Delaware which always con-
tests the naming Of a Marylander for
this position. Delaware, as we'll as the
District of Columbia, is a part of the
revenue district. and. some Of the Re-
publican leaders in that State want the
Senator Bali for the vacancy.
Favorable to Hanna.
$50, far, however, the Delaware poll
ticians have made no representations on
the subject other than to request the
President to give them a hearing before
he decides upon the appointment. This
the Chief Executive will do. 1t can be
stated emphatically, however, that If
Maryland gets the appointment and 1t
seems now that it will, Mr.. Hanna will
be the man.
2 The visitors today told the President
that the party in Maryland was a unit
for Hanna and that National Commit
teenian William p. Jackson and Collec-
tpr Stone were supporting him.
While no promise was given in the
ease OF Mr.. Garrett, the visitors have
ample reason for believing he will get
the Argentina legation. The President
IS favorably inclined to order the trans
fer.

TROUTMAN DIES AS
RESULT OF BULLET
cARELEsslY I FIRED
Arthur Carroll Held by Cor
oner for Investigation.
Mother at Bedside.

Louis Troutman, nineteen years old,
Of Capital Heights, Nd, who was shot
In the head last evening with a 81
cafiber revolver In the hands of Arthur
Carroll, seventeen-year-old colored
boy, died this morning in the Emer-
gency Hospital.
While the police believe the shooting
was an accident, Coroner Nevitt will
hold an inquest at the morgue tomor-
row. Carroll is held at the Ninth pre-
cinct station OF. a charge of assault
with dangerous weapon.
Story of the Shooting.
Troutman was waiting at the electric
railway station at Sixty-first and c
streets northeast. for his mother. Mrs.
Virginia Troutman, who is employed as
chairwoman In one OF the departments
an old revolver he had found several
days before. and, pointing It at the
floor, snapped the trigger several times
The cartridge failed to explode.
Carroll says Troutman told him 10
let him see what was the matter with
the pistol and as he raised the weapon
1t went off, the bullet entering Trout
mans forehead. Mrs. Troutman arrived
just a few minutes after the shooting
The wounded youth was taken to the
Hospital, and two hours later Carroll
was arrested at his home.
In cases of thia kind" said Coroner
hewitt, II feel the testimony should
be heard by jury. The shooting it.
self was undoubtedly an accident, as
1 do not believe anything was further
from CARROTS thoughts than shooting
the young white man.
Question for Jury.
'Still. in the gun play cases there Is
always a suggestion af criminal neg,
ligence' or criminal carelessness,' and
1t is for a coroner's jury to say what
shall be done"
Troutmans father is blind and unable
to work, and the young man had teen
in the habit of waiting at the staten
for his mother, when she came home
from work. Had she arrived a few
minutes earlier she woald have wit
messed the tragedy. Mrs. Troutman
was at the bedside when hei son died.

States Senator JEFF Davis went to White
county today to deliver the opening
speech in his campaign for reelection.
Ms successor will be chosen by the
legislature to be elected next year and
an interesting contest is in prospect.

time doubt existed in the minds of the
p nticians as to whether the governor
would try for another term or become
az candidate for Senator. His decision

JEFF Davis and former Congressman
Stephen Brundige jr., who Is expected
to be his only opponent.
Mr.. Brundige represented the Second
district in Congress for ten years and
has strong following throughout the
