[Joe Pritchard reporting] Changes in the Association circuit would not be a surprise to those whoa re on the inside, so to speak. Indianapolis is a good twenty-five-cent town and the Hoosier capital would want nothing better than to be represented in the American Association, and Mr. Brush is now adjusting his wires and hopes to work them so well that he will have a club in Indianapolis in a very short time. He has made offers to two clubs to buy them out—lock, stock and barrel—but the trades are still pending, although some conclusion may be arrived at before The Sporting Life makes its appearance again. Mr. Brush has had a taste of the national game, and he is not willing to stay out of the swim. The people of Indianapolis are howling for base ball and nothing but one of the major organizations would be tolerated there.
