Roosevelt has done much to strength
en tho Idea that Roosevelt Is to take
an important rlaco among Taft's ad
visers. That important changes are to take
place in the o. conization of tho Taft
cabinet no politician here denies. It
has, been rumored that Roosevelt has
sent an ultimatum to Taft In which
he asked certain changes-bo made or
ho would withhold his endorsement
of the Taft administration. The ru
mor set Washington afire. Since It
has been afloat so many rumors have
been In the air that politicians de
clare that changes in tho Taft cab
inet aro certainly contemplated. Just
what they arc to be Is not known, but
it la believed that the type of mon
who helped wrry out the Roosevelt
policies under Roosevelt will be given
cabinet assignments. Tho names of
Hitchcock, M-icVeagh and Dickinson
aro connected with tho rumors that
certain cabinet officers are to retlro.
Although tho rumors conflict and
some are taken seriously wbllo oth

The tuno limit for tho payment of

payer must put up a penalty of 10
per cent in order to clear himself on
