NOT HERE
Missing Man Reported Hee Not

His Friends in Memphis Much Dis
trsssed Over Developments

A youth name Conrad Hoge, of
Memphis, who was supposed to have
been drowned of the Stacker Lee, a
boat tiought here for repairs, was re-
ported found here by the Paducah po-
hoe. bat this morning the police de-
MED that Hoge had been seen snd dis .
claimed anything to do with the re.
port sent out from here that Hoge had
turned mp alright
1t seems that the young man was
drinking and the next morning his
clothes were found but the body was
missing. This lead the ofiicers on the
boat TO believe the boy had walked of
the boat INTO the river during the fog
Of the night and was drowned.
Il seems that . reporter on another
paper asked a policeman II Hoge had
been found here and was jokiDgly told
that he had. The p'rents of the boy
were greatly relieved when they saw
the dispatch saying their son had been
found alive and hearty here, but were
cast into gloom again when denial
of the report wss telephonou back by
Captain Henry Bailey this morning.

CHANGE EFFECTIVE JANUARY /

deputy u. D marsnal Syd hubbard,
who has been stationed at Paducan
for the past several months, will prob
ably be transferred 10 Louisville in
the near future. According to report to
from Louisville U. q. Marshal James
has decided to have no more field mar.
shals, and to call all in. This will not
mean curtailment of the force, bot
simply moan that the force will be
concentrated at Louisville, and an off,
Ger dispatched to any part Of the state
he 10 needed
For the last several years deputy
marshal has been stationed at Paducah
and 1t is not known how the new ar
rangemens will work.
Says the Louisville Post of yester.
day:
UNITED States Marshal AID. James
will make radical change in the
methods of operating his Office within
teh next thirty days.
"Dr. James has decided that he will
consolidate his field force with his
present office force, thereby elimiuat-
ing theoretically, the field deputy
altogether. The change does not con.
template any reduction in the force,
but, on the contrary. may result in
the addition of two or three more dep
uties
THE consolidation plan has been
under consideration for some time and
In now almost consummated. DIR.
James wrote to Attorney General Knox
today, giving him .he details of the
subject. and the system which he pro-
poses to inaugurate. He expects to
receive a favorable reply from the at
torpey general within the next week
or ten days, and II there is no hitch
the new arrangement will go into
effect about January |.
Under the new regime all deputies
who have heretofore been working Sin
the field" or, in other words, have
had their headquarters outside of Lou
isville, will he brought to the local
office, and will receive their assign
ments here. When occasion arises to
send depu y out into the at, rr.
James and Chief Deputy Blackburn
will have thu IN at hand instead of ex.
periencing the trouble aud delay of
them ana giving them instruc
tions by telephone or telegraph.
1.-THE operation of the msrshsl's
office will be greatly simrliied under
the new order Of things. At present
il frequently happens that when dep
uty is needed, DR.. James cannot get
into immediate communication with
him. An instance which shows the
vexstions Of the old arrangement was
brought to light last week when three
prisoners az bardstown came very
near being released on habess corpus
proceedings, owing to the inability Of
The msrshals' office to secure deputy
