New Army Regulations.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-Msjor William
P. Gould, Of the Department of the Army,
has been placed Oh the retired list. Tit
recent General of the Army's order, send
ing officers back to their regiments after
q period Of four years on detached duty, is
providing much discussion among the
officers In Washington. The two officers
now on duty here will be compelled to
join their regiments at once. They are
Captains Gregory and Davis, Of General
Sheridan's staff. Captain Davis was re-
Gently assigned to staff service, but has
been on detached duty for a number Of
years. The officers who favor the order
say that fsvoritism is now ended; that
officers will not be allowed to remain away
from their commands 10 or Is years; that
Captains who have never seen their COM
panies will have an opportunity 10 look at
them, and that men who have been on the
frontier for almost a score of years will
now be permitted to taste the sweets OF
army life. THAT ORDER" said an officer
to-day, "means the resurrection OF the
army"

cited the firms creditors. Messrs. En-.
mons & Roach consulted counsel. and
acting upon their lawyers advice decided

will have to be thoroughly examined be-
fore the liabilities n assets can be de-
termined.
Unfortunate Plymouth and vicin.
fty.

| towns during the Summer, but never
before were there half as many cases as al
present, nor was the disease so violent and
fatal in its results. There ia over $50 cases
now under treatment.
