NED SMITH. WILL
GET MAR HALSHIP'
OF This Federal Court District
According to the Latest
Washington Dope.

WASHINGTON, jan 19.-But two
more of the important federal Offices
in West Virginia remain to be hlled
and it is probable that the appoint
ments for marshal in the northern
and southern districts will be made
within a very short time. OF course.
there still remain some of the pres
identiaI postmasters to appoint, as
their terms expire, and the assistant
attorneys for the northern district
have not been announced. But, at
ter all, the two marshalships are the
only remaining places OF greater Inn
portance to be filed. Each Of these
carries with it a couple of office dep
uties and several for field work, the
latter of whom are paid in FEES
In the southern district. Frank Il.
Tyree, personal friend and, appointee
of Theodore Roosevelt, is still In the
Office. He was the personal body-
guard Of the president when Colonel
Roosevelt was in Office and afterward
President Roosevelt appointed him
m arshal in the southern district, an
ncuncing to the Repu blican leaders
of the state that it was personal APP

them. OF course 1t suited them I4tit-

juries, which, doctors at the hospital
say, will no doubt prove fatal as a
result of being struck by an Adams
ton street car at IL: 15 Monday after
noon, Just above the water tanks at
that place.
Mrs. DoIan had both legs cut on,
one above the knee and the other
below the. knee, one wheel OF the
front trucks having passed over her
after she was knocked down. She is
also badly bruised about the face,
head and body. Mrs. Rittenhouse Is
suffering from internal injuries. the
exact nature of which has not yet
been determined though doctors
think she will die.
The two were walking along the
boardwalk beside the street car
track. going west. The walk is only
a few feet from the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad tracks and two eye
witnesses. to the accident say that the
women seemed to have become fright
ened by the blowing of the whistle
of train which was approaching on
the railroad tracks ana stepped upon
the street car tracks directly IN front
of the approaching car.

of her body being across the tracks
The car was brought to stop just
after the front wheel of the front
trucks had passed over her, seNerilg

The women were placed on the car
and all possible speed was made In
rushing them back to this city. a tele-
phone call was sent in to the city

were waiting to take them to the hos

possible being done to save their
lives.
Little can be learned OF the identi-
ty of either of the injured ladies 9TH

Doian is the wife OF John Dolan, rig
builder at work on Robinson's Run
and would not return to his home
at Brown until Wednesday. Every
effort is being made by the traction
officials here to locate him and notify
him OF the accident Nothing what

that she 10 the mother of Mrs. Dolan;
