Base Ball with Cards-A Tournament AL
ready Arranged.

BosToS. April, 28 Boston has good many
''crazes" during the season. but the very latest
is sbase ball with cards" Whether it is because
the game is extensively advertised, or because it
is a sort of parlor imitation of the greatest of
out-of-door amusements, is merely conjectural,
but, since the Boston League nine began to play
it, other professionals and amateurs, and even
the old whist players have taken it up so that it
has become almost as universal in this universal
hub as the old Fifteen puzzle was in its day.
The game has merits of its own beyond doubt,
for the professional players say it possesses
nearly all the good qualities of whist without be
ing so slow. Other mines in the League have
taken it up as a pastime, and tournament is
being planned in which all the clubs will take
part. There will be two players from each. The
Providence, St. Louis, Boston and Chicago mines
have agreed to enter their best players. and it is
believed that Philadelphia and the other mines
will also enter. The games will begin in May.
when the League season opens IN Boston, and
the series will be completed in June. The prize,
costly trophy, will so to the club whose repre-
sentatives win it.
pie, has an element of science" in it. The cards
embrace characteristics illustrative of the
national game. Instead of the king. queen etc,
the value of the cards is shown by good pictorial
ILLUSTRATIONS, representing 'cdlcner, SLrlker,
umpire, fly CATCH home rum" 'foul ball, !"
ETC., terms which fully underst God by persons
who have seen many games out of doors. 1t is
played with two pairs, like whist, each starting
with nine cards, and the game can be made as
many innings long as desired. There being nine
tricks of four cards EACH played each inning a
run only will be counted for each trick taken
above four by either party.
The object of each player is to score runs and
at the same time prevent his opponent from do
ing So Every play must begin with striker
at the bat, and the success of the striker in
making his run" depends upon the chances of
wild throw the skill of a chase HIT" or the
decision of the umpire" For example, when a
striker" a "one-base HIT" first baseman" and
a wild throw are played, it shows striker,
having made his base a one-base hit, has been
caught playing off base by first baseman, who
would have put him out were not the card 'swild
throw" played, showing the ball had been thrown
wildly and the runner in consequence was not
put out.
There are scores of such combinations. and
the game, while having large element of chance
in it, requires skill, memory, Judgement rapid
ity of thought and application. 1t is not unlike
catching the ten in whist, when that feature
is introduced to enliven the game Captain
Morrills men say they like it, and it will help
them to spend their evenings pleasantly while
the League season lasts.

A CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY.
Rumored Disagreement Between Secretary
Endicott and General Sheridan.

humored Enlargement Between secretary
Endicott and General Sheridan.
WASHINGTON. April 2s.-For number of
days rumors have been rife in the War Depart
ment that army order was forthcoming which,
when issued, would create considerable surprise
While authentic information is obta:nable
from officials it is understood that the order to
be issued is by the President and is to define
the limit of the authority of the Lieutenant-
general of the Army. 1t was an open secret for
months prior to Secretary Linccns retirement
that a controversy existed between him and
Lieutenant general Sheridan relative to the
authority of the latter. The Secretary of War
finally wrote letter to the Lieutenant general,
in which he defined the latters authority. 1t is
asserted that General Sheridan has come In con-
fict with the Secretary Of War in regard to
the same quesiion--as to their respective rights
Of command. On The 9th inst. general order
was issued for certain regiments to exchange
stations by June /. This order was BY
command of Lieutenant general Sheridan
1t did not contain the name OF the Secretary OF
War. nor the words with the approval of tho
Secretary Of War Similar orders, as shown
by the records, when issued by General Sher-
man, contained the name of Secretary Lincoln
In the general order above referred to, the Sec
ond Regiment of artillery, stationed at Wash
jns on, ordered to exchange with the Third
Re ,imont OF artillery, stationed III the Gulf
states. Certain surgeons of the army expressed
themselves as bitterly opposed to the change at
this season of the year They say it would en-
danger the health of the unacclimated regiment
and that the transfer would be especially dan
geIous because of threatened sickly season in
the South They say. further. that the reei-
Inent now stationed in the South is acclimated,
and can remain there without danger. Other
officials say that this is the first order Of the
kind issued in the spring of the year. Secretary
Endicott is now in Boston. The expected order,
which promises a SURPRISE will probably not be
next Thursday

Results of Two-Cent Postage.

WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Third Assistant Post
master general Hazen has made report of the
effect, during the first year, of the reduction of
letter postage from three to two cents. He says
that the actual revenue for the year ended Sept.
30, 1884, 1.-THE first year during which the reduced
rate prevaed was $40, 1874, 500, or 81, 476 800 less
than the estimated revenue upon three cent
rate and the loss by the reduction of the rate to
two ceuts was 1923, 100 less than the esti
mated loss. The immediate falling off
in tho issue of postal cards was
1876 per cent, amounting to 83,034, 2S7
cards Crediting the extra revenue on letters
from the loss on postal cards with .342 of
the BENEFICIAL results of two-cent postage would
leave 81, 967, 592 to be divided between the bene
fits growing out Of the increased number of let
tiers and the substitution of sealed circulars for
open ones. He thinks the actual loss on reve
nue. even less than this. In conclusion, Mr.
Hazen says: II will only add that the results
of two cent postage have more than realized the
most sanguine expectations offs warmest advo

A Mausoleum of Brains.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON April 2S.-'It would be bless
ing to more than man to be turned out of
the civil-service," said member Of the Treasury
inquiry commission today. There are dozens
of young men here who have an excellent educa-
ton and bright intellects who entered the gov
eminent service after leaving college, intending
to stay but few months-a year at the most.
They got in and have staid, and it is probable
that they will be buried here for the rest of their
days Then again there are others who accepted
clerkships in order that they might be able to
support themselves while attending lectures at
the law or medical schools. This class fully in
tended to strike out for itself the day the diplo-
mas were distributed but the certainty of a
small salary has kept them here, and they, too.
are likely to die in the harness. The depart
mental service is the mausoleum of brains.
Men who enter seem unable to leave, and hun
dreds of bright young fellows are lost to the
world because of clerkship at S., 200 a-year.

Bad Results Caused by Putting a Small Man

Special TO the indianapolis Journal.
WAsHINGToN, April 2S-For several days the
list Of fourth class postmasters appointed By the
Postmaster-generah has been about sixty day, and
Mr. Villas has taken pains to advertise the fact
that he has at last ''got down to business" Yet
even at the rate which he is now making changes
it will take two months to fill the existing va
cances. In the meantime officials of the depart
ment have been instructed to keep silence upon
all matters relating to the business of the de-
pRrtment, as Mr. Villas does not desire that any
Information shall be given cut which does not
come directly from him. Never in the history
of the department has business been so far be-
hind all owing to the desire of the new head to
make it appear that he is capable of handling
the whole vast machinery with his own
hand. The truth is Mr.. Villas, while
bright man intellectually, is of much too small
caiibcr to conduct the bu incss of the depart
Inent alone. No man on earth could do it. But
Mr.. Villas came here with an exalted notion of
his own executive ability and administrative
powers Since his arrival the fact that he is so
much sought after by senators and members who
want places has served to increase his ideas of
his own Importance, and now that he sees the
work pilng up upon him. and the daily mails
bringing in applications by the thousand, he is
ratified, and is at loss Low to proceed. The
business of the country is suffering because Of
the inability of the chief of the most important
department to appreciate his own incapacity
Villas might have shone as a bureau officer, but
as member of the Cabinet he is pronounced
failure.

Special to the Indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON, April 28.-Those who have
watched the course of Vice-president Hen
bricks during the past two months think they
see, beneath the surface, well-lad plan to cap
ture the Democratic nomination for the presi-
dency in 1883. 1t is argued that while the Presi-
dent is pursuing policy which will commend
itself to the people as against the politicians,
Hendricks is playing his cards to propitiate the
party workers, and that by the persistency of
his demands for places for party friends he is
attempting to show the politicians that he has
chicken hearted scruples upon the subject of
civIl-service reform. That there is some ground
for this belief there can be no doubt. Everyone
knows that as a rule the politicians, not
the people. control the primaries. 1t needs
but a glance at the history of past
conventions to convince even the most skeptical
that it is those who make business of politics
the machine men and the wire pullers-that con-
troll nominations. Cleveland by his course has
antagonized this element, while Mr.. Hendricks
has done all in his power to propitiate the gods
of the caucus Hendricks never lets an oppor-
t9nity slip TO gain friends among the ofice-seek-
ers and those who are powerful in the nominal
ing conventions He sneers at reform which
is designed to keep good men in Office and bad
Democrats out. He indorses every application
presented to him. He visits the departments
with batch of applications daily. He cannot
DO snubbed, ne will not be sat upon In short
Hendricks is following the policy always adopted
by the politician who has object in view.
Hendricks undoubtedly has an eye on the NOM
ination for the presidency IN 1883
