Mr.. BRUSH TO GO EAST
WILL ATTEND THE MEETING OF THE
NATIONAL LEAGUE.
Before Ii Adjourns There VIII BE but
Ten Clubs in the Organ
izatiOn.

John T. Brush will leave for New York
this morning TO attend the meeting Of the
National League. Mr.. Brush refused TO COM
nit himself on the subject matter which
is TO come before the meeting, fbut. as out
lined in the Journal of Monday ii may be
stated authoritatively that before the meet
ing breaks up the league will be reduced
to ten clubs. Negotiations have been carried
on secretly for several days past. with the
result that everything except one or two
minor points have been settled outside the
meeting. and the mere formality of ousting
Baltimore and Cleveland will require little
time. The matter of fixing a schedule has
also been attended to and it is probable that
no other meeting will be necessary before
the season opens.
President Nick Young, it is understood,
has drawn up two schedules-one for a
twelve-club league and another for ten
club league and it will be but the work of
a day or so to adopt either one or the other
and trim it up to suit the demands which
some of the cities always make for holiday
games, either at home in cities where
the crowds turn out literally.

He VIII Take Charge Of the Indiana
Guard at Once.

Governor Mount yesterday announced the
formal appointment of Gen. Will j. Mckee
as the commander of the new National
Guard, with the title of brigadier general
The news was not surprising from the fact
that over three months ago. during a visit
to this city, General Mckee practically ad-
mitted that the place had been offered to
him, and that he would accept if he was
discharged from the federal service in time
to take part in the reorganization of the
National Guard in this State.
Before II was known that the army would
be disbanded as suddenly as it was the
place was offered to Gen. Nicholas r.
Ruckle and Col. James r. Ross, but both
declined to serve. General Mckee has
served in the Indiana militia for over TWEEN
ty years. He will be given full charge of
the new guard and will assume his duties
at once 1t is expected that, cor time. at
least. his organization will be a small one,
compared with the one which was mustered
into the federal service last spring, but the
ultimate purpose is 10 bring ii up to the old
strength soon an adequate appropria-
ton has been allowed by the General AS
sembly.
