SPECIAL TO the Indianapolis Journal
WAsHINGToN, March 10.-Weary and dis
Rusted were the major portion of ths
Hoosier Office seekers as they appeared
around the hotel lobbies to-day. They
heard so much about the new rules which
are to govern appointments under this adj
ministration that they lost all heart. The
emphatic manner in which the administra-
tion has sat down upon the Office seeker for
place has completely dampened their srdor
and many who saw In fancy an Office almost
within reach are ready to go home. Some
of them have packed their satcheis. and
after either withdrawing or filing their
papers announced their intention of leav-
ing Washington. Ex-Congressman Matson
was among these who departed for theiI
Indiana homes. But Colonel Matson went
away with light heart. Heis to return
on Monday and has been assured that he
will be appointed Commissioners of Internal
Revenue or Governor OF Utah. The
Colonel believes Utah will become State
and If he Is then Governor he expects TO
come here as United States Senator. But,
believing III the adage that "a bird In hand
is worth two In the busb." he prefers the
commissionersniD of internal revenues.
The Colonel seems to have q ''cinch" on Q

ators from the State and Secretary
