Contemplated Reorganization oi Certain Offices In the Poitofllce Department. ' "Washington, Oct, S. Second Assistant Postmaster-general Whitfield has qualified as First Assistant, and will assamehis new duties to-morrow. Mr. J. Lowrie Bell, the present general superintendent of the railway mail service, has also qualified as Seoond Assistant Postmaster-general, and will tike charge of his new office to-morrow. These appointments are strictly in the line of civil-service reform. With these changes the Postmaster-general contemplates a reorganization of certain offices in the department. Offices which are in the same general line will be placed under one head. That is, the railway mail service and the railway contract office will bo under the immediate supervision of the new Second Assistant. Mr. Bell. In other words, all .matters relating to mail transportation will be under his charge. Mr. Whitfield, as First Assistant, will have supervision of the salary and allowance and the free der Jrrerv otViees. in addition to his other duties. These offices have heretofore been regarded as independent bureaus, their chief, aa a rule, passing upon nearly all questions. It is expected by these changes to bring the several offices more under the direct supervision of the assistant Postmaster general. T&lk frith an Indianapolis Man. "Wfc&Mngtcn Post. Mr. A. H. Nordyke, of Indianapolis, Ind., a wealthy manufacturer of patent rollermills machinery that of late years has superseded the old-style Hour-mills, was seen at the Langham. He said: "The utilization of natural gas has given great impetus to manufacturing industries at Indianapolis. It is of the highest benefit to the operatives, too, by giving them cheaper f neL Our workmen pay not exceeding $10 a year for their supply for heat and cooking purposes, whereas the outlay for coal would be three or four times as much." Mr. Nordyke says the administration is popular in Indiana, and becoming stronger all the tine. Though not a politician, he is certain the Indiana Republicans will favor Mr. Harrison's renomination. Treasurer II as ton Slay Resign. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington, Oct. 3. The old rumors have been revived of late about the early resignation of Treasurer Huston. He was asked to-day what there was m the reports, and he said he did not expect to hang on to the office by his eyebrows all his life and be might resign, but he was not ready to do so just yet. "If I did." said he, the result would be to deluge President Harrison with a thousand applications for my office. Every Republican Congressman and Senator in the country would have a candidate to urge before the President. I don't care to subject the President to such an annoyance as that. If I do resign, I will not announce it until the resignation is sent in, but in any event I would not resign on the eye of an election." Printers Mast Follow Copy. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington, Oct. 3. The enrolled copy of the tarill bill signed by President Harrison contained many mistakes. The errors are principally in spelling. At the Government Printing Office the statement is made that no authority to change mispelled words is enrolled or engrossed bills passed by Congress exists outside of that body. The printing office has to follow copy, so that the law is published with a number of ordinary English words wrongly spelled. Among the words xnis8pelled'are: Cottan for cotton, aforsaid for aforesaid, sonerkroat for sauerkraut, etc. The errors in spelling were made bvthe engrossing clerks in their hurry to have the bill ready for the President' signature. No More Indians for Wild West" Shows. Washington, Oct. a Acting Indian Commissioner Belt has issued a letter of instructions to Indian agents, in which he says that the department is informed t'aat a compan' is preparing to obtain Indians from some of the reservations to join "Wild West" shows in Europe. The agents are instructed to promptly refuse any applications for this purpose, as it is now against the policy of the Interior Department to grant permits for such purposes under any circumstances. Appointments by the President. Washington, Oct 3. The President has appointed J. B. Tumor, of Indiana, to be an usher at the White House, vice E. W. White, of Indiana, who recently resigned. The President has also appointed Austin J. Braddock, of Kockville, Md.; Henry J. Ateu, of Hiawatha, Kan.; John IS. Mayhugb, of Elko, Nov., and Miss Helen P. Clark, of Montana, to be special agents to make allotments of lands in severalty to Indians under the provisions of the act of Congress approved Feb. 8, lbi7. Clarkson May Go to China.

Cassatt, of Pennsylvania, and ex-Senator Davis, of West Virginia, have accepted the office of intercontinental railroad commissioners, to which they were nominated on Tuesday by the President.

Lieutenant Commander Reitar. n rrm rcandof the united States steamer Kange; has been ordered home, and will be relieve 3 py commander Wingate. The impression is ceneral here that Commander Keiter is called because the Secretary of State is dissatisfied at the course pursued by him in regard to the peace negotiations be tween iiuatemala and Salvador, and also in regard to the Barrundia affair. The Kauger was in the harbor of San Jose when Barrundia was killed on the Acapulco. The amount of silver ottered to the Treasury Department to-dav amounted tn r7.om ounces. Tho amount purchased was 510.000 ounces, as loliows: 4O.O0O, at 81,1315; 100.000, at $1,137: tS.om at i.i27R. bo nm r. 81 issv a).000. at 8L1CS4; 1SO.000, at $1.1S85; 55,000, at Express Train Huns Into a Freight Car, Gorman.

Leading Kentucky horsemen are now satisfied that his value was not impaired by the accident, and he is still as valuable as ever for.breeding purposes. BASE-BALL MATTERS. .

Changes In the Form of Contract to Be Sisjmed by National League riayera. Philadelphia, Oct. 3. A new form of contract has been prepared by the officials of the National Base-ball League. The important changes aro summarized as follows by Secretary Rogers: "The reserve or eighteenth paragraph is entirely stricken out, and a new paragraph giving the club, in clear, delinito phraseology, the option to renew the contract for whatever number of years may be mutually agreed npon isinserted. The word 'reservation in caseof disbandmeut, is also stricken out of the fifteenth paragraph, and an authority for the club to assign tho contract inserted. The seventeenth paragraph, containing the ten-days' clause, is materially altered to the advantage of the player. After inserting a. reason for the notice, namely, alack of skill of playing ability below the standard requisite in a National Leatrue club, it limits the serving of the notice to the period of the playing season. A player, under this form cannot be released between seasons without his consent. If, during the season, ho be released while abroad with the club, he shall be entitled to traveling expenses back to the home city. "Another change in favor of the player is his right to appeal to the League directors against club fines and penalties that he may consider unjust. The clauses against dissipation and immorality are strengthened by adding that the player must absolutely refrain from late hours and from any excess and dissipation in eating, drinking and otherwise.1 and must 'keep himself in the best physical condition to play ball.' etc. While the reserve rule is no Ion ser referred to in the contract it does not follow that it will be stricken out of the national agreement. In all probability it or its equivalent will always be as heretofore preserved as a necessity for the perpetuation of the game, but it is not likely to figure in legal contracts or law courts hereafter." Price raid for the Cincinnati Club. Cincinnati, Oct 8. There is very much of a gathering together of the base-ball men, managers and correspondents here tonight. President Stern, of the Cincinnati club, arrived to-night and had a conference with F. II. Brunei, secretary of the Brotherhood League. E. B. Talbott, secretary and treasurer of the New York club, and John M.Ward, of the Brooklyn club, are here, and were present at this evening's conference. Mr. A. L. Johnson, of the Cleveland club, will be here early in the morning. The final business of the transfer of the Cincinnati club will be transacted at a meeting to be held in the Burnet House at 11 o'clock to-morrow forenoon. Secretary Brnnell said the Brotherhood losses would be between S50.000 and 100,000 this year, while those of the League would bo several times that sum. It was ascertained from trustworthy sources that the price to be paid for the Cincinnati club is 38,000, of which $20,000 will be cash down. Two players remain to be signed by the Cincinnati club, and they will sign in the morning before the transfer. National League 11 all Games. At Brooklyn Pittsburgh 4; Brooklyn, 10.

Tho third day's session of tho Northwest Indiana Conference was opened with a prayer and praise meeting, conducted by Hey. L. C. Buckles and Allen Lewis. The Bishop called up the business to be transacted. Dr. Gobin, dean of the DePauw Theological School, says that 10,000 has been raised for the purpose of erecting a building to be used as a residence by the theological students. A motion was carried that the stewards report to tho next conference on the approximate amounts needed. President Tuttle cordially invited the conference, as a body, to visit Wabash College this afternoon, at 2 o'clock, which was accepted. Kev. 8. Beck, presiding elder of the LaPorte district, and Kev. J. L. Smith, presiding elder of the Valparaiso district, and their cflective ciders, made their reports and were passed. They both said that the grip bad greatly interfered with the work of the churches last winter. Kev. D. A.

Harris was recommended for the appointment to the snperintendency of the Soldiers' Home at Knigbtstown. The Bishop then called the class of the second year, consisting of C. U. Stockbarger. C. L.

At a temperance meeting of the ministers there werd some rather pointed remarks. One speaker advocated the voting for the third party right along. Another speaker. S. P. Colvin, said that Re always had voted as he thought was right, and he had voted for Ben Harrison. He was interrupted and asked by the former speaker if General Fisk was a good man. Mr. Colvin replied that ho was. because ho had worked for local option in Michigan. The chairman, seeing how the affair was driftiug, poured oil upon the troubled waters, aud was heartily applauded. This evening was devoted to tho Proachers' Aid Society work, and listening to an address by Dr. Moore, editor of the Western Christian Advocate. YEARLY MEETING OF FRIENDS. Discussion of the Temperance Report-Funds for the Nebraska Campaign. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Richmond, Ind., Oct. 3. Following tho lengthy report on temperance to . tho Friends Yearly Mooting, William Watts spoke forcibly on the subject. Elizabeth Comstock related interesting occurrences to illustrate her points. Friend Trueblood, from Florida, gave excellent reports of "county" prohibition down there. His county and all that join it have ' swept the traffic away entirely from them. "Cyclone" Bennett, being called, gave a vigorous and emphatic discourse. He commended the Quakers for their efforts in extirpating the curse of human slavery. 'You are not to-day speaking for your church. You are uot speaking for your church alone; yon are speaking for Christendom; you are speaking for tho Lord God of hosts." Timothy Nicholson related the grateful intelligence that Jimmy Dunn, was here, from Nebraska and would speak at the next sitting. He had a large audience, and appealed earnestly for the sinews of war. Nebraska is in a tight to the death with the traffic, and their light is our fight. A large collection was taken up. and the speaker gave way to revival services. 1 he cost of printing last year's minutes was reported as $221.52.

Then followed inquiry into the state of the society, and dissertations folio ffod on the best methods for bettering it. CREERAR S WILL ATTACKED. Heirs of Chicago's Dead Millionaire Seek to Have His Public Bequests Set Aside. Chicago, Oct. 3. The will of tho late John Creerar, which disposed of au estate of nearly $3,000,000, much of it being bequeathed to charitable and religious institutions in this city, is to be contested, and court proceedings will soon bo commenced which will probably prove to be one of the most celebrated cases of its kind on record. The lawyers, it is asserted, have found several weak points in the will, which, they say, cannot stand under the law. They say that the John Creerar Library, for the erection and maintenance of which Mr. Creerar left over 2,000,000, will never be bnilt if the contesting heirs win their case. The heirs who will make the contest are living in this city and in different parts of of Ontario. The grounds on which it is proposed to invalidate tho library bequest are the same as those on which tho bequest for a library in New York in the will of the late Samuel J. Tilden was invalidated that a bequest cannot be legally made to anything which does not exist. It is also proposed to attack the bequest to the Scotch Presbyterian Church, of New York city, $25,000; the Chicago Bible Society, $2o.000; the American Sunday-school Union, of Philadelphia, $50,000, and the bequest of S100.000 for a statue of Abraham Lincoln. The solicitor for the contestants points out that all of the bequests to relatives, ranging away to third cousins, are to relatives on the testator's mother's side, aud that his relatives on his father's side are not mentioned. In proving the will a family servant testified that thero were no relatives on the father's side and contestants assume that ho did not know of their existence, else he would havo made bequests in their behalf also.

The Distinguished Frenchman and His Party Welcomed to America A Sight-Seeing Trip. New York. Oct 3. All morning the people interested in the arrival of the Comto De Paris and party were on the quivive for news of the Germanic. At 10:16 she was sighted off the Highlands and vord was sent to the city. The invited guests were anxiously waiting at the bargo-ofiice dock ready to embark on the revenue cutter Cushman to welcome the Comte and his party. There was some delay in waiting for one of the guests to arrive, but at- 11:15 o'clock the cutter steamed down the bay with a small party composed of E. R. Erhardt, General Butterdeld, Gen. O. O. How ard. Gen. E. D. Keys, Gen. Fitzjohn Porter, Gen. H. W. Slocum. W. 13. Franklin. Gen. John Newton, J. G. Parke. J. K. Dillon, Gen. O'Beirne and everal newspaper men on board. The Germanic was boarded oil Staten Island, and the Comte, surrounded by his party, was waiting for the old war horses on the quarter deck. General Buttertield, who is an old friend and comrade-at-arms of the Comte, was greeted very cordially. The Comte. in very good English, said in greeting him: "It is very kind of you to come down here to see me and it makes the occasion very pleasant. 1 think it very nice of you to bring so many other familiar faces from among the army of the Potomac." Collector Erhardt was presented to the Comte, and said: "I am instructed by tho President and government to welcome you to these shores, and to extend to you every courtesy." The Comte replied: "1 thank you very much for the honor, and I am glad to make another visit to America. I appreciate tho great honor conferred on me. by the President." Gen. Fitzjohn Porter was then greeted, by tho Comte, and the words uttered by him go to show how much he is interested in America, and how fully acquainted he is with American affairs. Ho said: ,"I am glad to see you again, and 6eo you restored to yonr original position." Tho Comte d'llausson ville, who received for the Comte De Paris, said to the reporters: 'Our partv consists of H. K. H., the Comte De Paris; II. If. H., the Due d'Orleans,' the Due d'Ezes. the Marquis De Lasteyrie, the Comte d'Haussonville, Col. De Farsefal, Captain Morham and Dr. Recanoer. We came over for a pleasure trip, to last a month. We return Nov. 1, on the Servia. We will go from here to Craigen's Point, West Point, Wo then visit Philadelphia, where we shall stay a few days, then go to Gettysburg, to view the old battle-grounds. Baltimore is our next plaoe, and from there we go to Richmond by boat down the Potomao and the James river." The Comte was asked what the Comte De Paris had to sav on the future of France and French politics. Ho replied that on tne subject the Comto refused to talk, as the subject was tabooed. The Comte, who is a tall, broad-shouldered man with iron-gray hair and beard and an intellectual face, lighted up by a pair of kindly blue eyes, said iu a voice with a sliffht accent, to the reporter: "I am glad to meet you, gentlemen, and to be in New York again. 1 sailed down this bay twenty-eight years ago in those sad and tried times. I see many changes and am glad to see this country in such a state of pros Deri ty. I am glad to stay in New York and to meet yon newspaper men. I cannot disoussany affairs relating to France now." The Due d'Orleans is a young man with a smooth face. He is considerably over six feet in height and of muscular build. His hair is pure blonde and his cheeks rosy redi The passengers on the Germanic, and especially the members of the Kendall company, who were on board, became fast friends of the Comte and his party. They all said that the Duo was a charming young fellow and that his fatherwas equallv charming. The party landed at the White Star pier at 1:20 p. M. and were driven to the Windsor Hotel, where they have several suites of rooms. , Karl Hass. the Austrian valet of the Count of Paris, died at St. Vincent's Hospital at 7 o'clock this evening of intestinal obstruction. Ho had been removed from the steamship at 3 p. M., and had been sick during the voyage. m LOCOMOTIVE ENGINEERS. They May Possibly Unite with the Federation at Their Coming Convention. Pittsburg, Pa., Oct. a The twentyseventh annual convention of tho International Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, to bo held in this city on the lGih inst., will attract the attention of railroad officials and members of trainmen's organizations to a greater extent than any similar convention held in years. Upon the action of this convention depends the future policy of every organization of railroad men in this country. The United Order of Railway Employes, composed of the Brotherhood of Railway Conductors, the Brotherhood of Firemen, and the Switchmen's Mutual Aid Association, has invited the engineers to become members of this federation. In case the engineers accept this invitation railway employes will have an organization of greater power than ever before ex isted. It will be practically invulnerable. Should the ensineers refuse to co-operate the "Federation" will stand as it is at present. Prominent engineers are reticent as to their desires in this matter. Tho desire of trainmen to bring about the alliance has had its effect, and thp indications now seem to be that a majority of the engineers are iu favor of the move. The old differences between the engineers' and firemen's organizations have been adjusted, and the old antipathy of the firemen is ended. Tjiis, therefore, will not militate against the coalition. Indictments Against Boycotters Dismissed. New York, Oct. 3. A peculiar episode took place in the Court of General Sessions to-day. The grand jury brought in an indictment for conspiracy against the full board of walkincc delegates of the building trades.

The indictment was found in connection with the boycotting of brick manufacturers. The Brick Manufacturers' Association, after a long session, to-day, decided to discontinue the curtailment of brick supplies and allow all bricks to come without interruption. This practically puts an end to the brick war, which has been carried on with moro or less severity since July last. Short Strike on the Illinois Central. Chicago, Oct. 3. All the freight conductors and brakemen on the Illinois Central railroad between this city and Champaign, about five hundred in number, struck last night, demanding the reinstatement of about twenty of their number who were discharged yesterday. At n meeting held here, this forenoon, the strikers decided to ask co-operation of engineers and liremen. This was refused, and the strikers, seeing their case was hopeless without the aid of the enginemen, decided to return to work. m Effect of Our Tariff on Canadian Barley. Sarnia, Ont., Oct. a The fact that the McKinley bill will come into force on Oct. G has had the eilect of materially lowering tho price of barley. A high price was paid for several davs by those buying for shipment to the United States before the bill came into force. It is likely that the effect of the bill in the future will be to lowertbe price of barley in this district, and tho United States as a market for Canadian eggs is considered practically closed.

Richard Harlan, of the First Presbyterian Church, this city, read bis letter of resignation as pastor before the congregation this evening. The letter dwelt upon the history of his pastorate.
