CALCULATIONS going on all day to-Ilay In the
Internal Revenue Bureau, In conseomenca
of the displacement of Gen. Pleasonto,,
and the promotion of Mr.. j. w. Douglass
to the commissionership which took Mace
yesterday. The transfer occurred at so late
an hour yesterday that the fact was NOT
generally known in the Bureau Until this
morning, and all day to-day the clerks In
the various divisions Of the Bureau waited
on the new Commissioner In his room in
instruments to congratulate hin, on his de-
served promotion. One Of the first official
acts of the new Commissioner to-day was
to order all books, records. files, and papers
connected with the detective and supervi-
sorS' department Of the Bureau to be
turned ever immediately to Mr.. VIM. d.
Avery, the appointment clerk. He also
directed q letter to Mr.. Henry Bowman,
tective and private secretary to Commits
sioner Pleasonton. notifying him that his
commission rs a detective had been revoked,
to take effect from date. 1t Is stated that
Mr.. Douglass will at once enter upon very
thorough wedding out of the corrupt de-
tective Office in New York, and that sundry
somewhat notorious members Of the reve-
nue. detective force in that city will lack
commissions in very few days. There is
a notable change for the better throughout
the Internal Revenue Office to-day, not the
least Of which is the fact that persons de-
string to see the Commissioner on business
could have access to that officer without
waiting In the ante-room half an hour.
The Commissioners office door was wide
open, as 1t was under all former Commits
Sioners except Pleasonton. TIMoN.

city collector, has decided that the

yention Of the State Constitution, In that
it provides for taxing shareholders in the
district where it is located, instead Of In
