I SELECTS MANY DIPLOMATS. Goes to Capitol With Long- List.? Talks to Senators. Washington, June^ 5.?President; Wilson appeared unexpectedly at the j president's room at the capit-ol late today with the biggest list of diplo- i Imatic selections he nas maae since ne took office. It was the president's fifth visit to the halls of congress, hut this time he ! found the door of the "marble room" j I locked, the senate had adjourned and ' the sergeant-at-arms was taken by \ surpris-e. ["I guess I'll have- to get a dupli- i cate key for this door," said the pres-j ident smilingly, as the sergeant-atarms hastily dispatched a messenger for the key. Hardly any senators w-ere in the building, but Secretary Tumult} soon sent out a call in quickly from the senate office building. The individuals about whom the president talked and some of the countri-es follow: Thomas Nelson Page, of Virginia, to be ambassador to Italy. It Justice J. W. Gerard ojt New York, j [ to be ambassador to Spain, when the j I bill making Madrid an embassy in| stead of a legation passes, probably i ' within a few weeks. } Col. Thomas P. Birch of New JerI sey, to be minister to Persia. Chas. W. CVIcAlpin secretary of; Princeton university, to be minister 'to the Netherlands. k Jose E. WillarS of Virginia, to be I minister to Belgium. Maj. E. J. Hale of North Carolina, to be minister to Costa Rica. P. A. Stovall of Georgia, to be minister to Switzerland. Former Gov. Benton McMillin of j -Tennessee, to be minister to Peru. Dr. B. L. Jefferson of Colorado, to ! be minister to a South American country, probably Argentina. Henry Morganthau of New York, to j be minister probably to Turkey. Albert Schmedemann of Wisconsin, to be minister to Norway. Frederick C. Penfield of Pennsylvania, probably ambassador to Aus B tria. When the president got through talking to th-e senators he met the I newspaper men in the corridor and Bf explained that his visit had been chief ly about diplomatic appointments and j I that no official list "would be made j I public until word was received from B the various foreign governments as to the acceptability of the individuals eI lected. Senators James and Stone talked j H tariff and 'inquired about the proposed j g amendment concerning the tobacco j industry, but learned tnat tne presi-1 i dent had not given full consideration to it yet. The president left the capitol as inconspicuously as he came. The atft^ndants held an elevator for him, but the president thanked them and declined. "I guess I'm a good democrat and j can walk down," he said with a laugh. CONFIRMS "WOODS. Seiy&te Acts on His Nomination.? I Friends are Pleased. Washington, June 5.?The s-enate this afternoon confirmed the nomination of Justice Charles A. Wood of Marion as the successor to Judge Xa- j than Goff of West Virginia as judge | of the fourth circuit. There was much gratification shown here by the friends of Judge Woods, j who have been watching for this ac- j tion as soon as it was ascertained that! the nomination had been favorably I acted upon. .Liver since a aisuaneu , attorney of South Carolina came to "Washington about six weeks ago and , attempted to have the senate commit-; tee on judiciary reject the nomina- f tion, l'rienus of Justice Woods have , been eager to see the matter reach a final stage. After the committee made i*s report in the matter about three weeks ago, there were still fur-, ther delays caused by the efforts of, others to s e whether or not an arrangement could not be effected by ; which Congressman Davis of West Virginia might secure the Woods j viAwmft-inn fl-v A 1 n t' nv Ka r\llf in_ ! jLiuuiiuaLiv/ix , auu lai cl XLX~ j to a new place which congress is . expected to create at an early date, j .This did not go through, as today's , v action indicates, and Justice Woods is , now ready to assume his seat on the federal bench, all necssary red tape, having been dispensed with.

Charleston, June 5.?Charles Ashley, a prominent young lawyer of Aiken, visiting on Sullivan's island with his mother at station 28, was drowned yesterday fternoon and de-* spite a vigorous search last night and today the body had not been recovered. He was fishing at the upper end of the island, having tken posi ??V?ici rJr\or Tt on- I lion on a reci wuu uio uv&. pears that he must have lost sigh: of the rapidity of th-e incoming tide and when he determined to return to the beach, instead of taking the circulation route by which he had reached the reef, he attempted to take a short cut and he suddenly found himself in deep water and unable to help him- j cpif wis palls for help were mistaken | for calls to his dog to follow him. Mr. Ashley left his boarding house at about 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon, taking with him a crabbing net and basket, planning to catch a mess of crabs for supper. His pet dog went along with him. Friends in cottages along the beach watched his progress toward Breach Inlet and saw him go out, the tide b ing low, along reef that is notably treacherous. He s 4-n n'ot^VlOTC f I'D 111 ' waveu nib nauuo tu cuvax,ic ( time to time, and was apparently en- j joying the excursion. Meanwhile tide j had come in, shutting from sight parts j of the sand reef, and when Mr. Ash- j lev discovered that he was bein^ cut J I off, he turned shoreward. Unfamiliar i with th? safe course to take, he tried j to wade back across intervening j waters, and suddenly found himself J over his head. Unable to swim and j being- physically weak, Mr. Ashley j called for help, his voice reaching ; children playing on the beach, but! they misunderstood his calls, think- j ing he was commanding his dog :o ; follow him. The young lawyer disap- j pear-ed from sight suid up to this morning his body had not been found. although diligent search was made by organized parties, who went as far as the Isle of . Palms, thinking perhaps that he had succeedeJ in getting out of the water's grasp, and had continued his outing across Beach inlet. His dog made its way to the shore safely, and later the crab net and "lies r\ ? ?< >! L^Ul lYicat^ to ycu it should.

There is deep gloom at the Laird cortage known at Aikenden, at station 28, and in the neighborhood where Mr. Ashley and his widowed mother were staying. Mrs. Ashley is overcome with gri-ef. He was an only son, his brother mating death sometime ago from fatal burns. Mr. Ashley had visits Sullivan's Island before enjoying a large circle of friends who admired him for his genial disposition and charmin? manner. For the past year or two the reef where Mr. Ashley met his death has been considered dangerous by those using it for bass fishing. The shifting sands in this section have changed the character of the beach, and now a long reef runs off from the shore that is covered by water when tide is high, although any one familiar with the lay of tfce i*vnd can make his way back safely to the short by following the course of the reef carefully. However, Mr. Ashley did not take this fact into account, and came straight in from where he was stationed when he found himself cut off by the rising waters. He was not a good swimmer. He was several hundred yards from his cottage when the accident happened, but in sight from the shore, his movements being fol > -1 ?X !_ ? r,r,nnc Jow-ea tnrouga opera- giaaaco.
