here thu talk is to the effect that Mr. De
hoe Is not, as powerful as he was several
years ago, and that when the Administra-
ton wants to know anything about Ken

Commissioners opinion were asked by
Secretary Gage he would not hesitate TO
say that it would be a good thing 10 make
q ChaugC in the Office Of the collector for
the Louisville district because the rCten-
ton Of AIT. Sapp has been the subject Of
some very sharp criticism from the civil

for collector of internal revenue
There are several other aspirants for
Collector SapD's position. but Mr.. Craft,
it is said. has by long odds the most in
