Opening Prices Were Generally
Lower.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, November 22-The total
outflow of gold coin and bars by tomor-
rows steamers, based on actual engage
ments SO far, will be five millions. The
subtreasury voluntarily reduced the rates
on bars from Ito to lie per cent, in order
that no further inroads should be made on
a depleted coin supply.
The engagements are so well distributed
among the reliable foreign banking houses
that recent charges of forced shipments
are completely disprcved, barring the pos
sitility C. collision, which is extremely re-
mote.
Opening prices this morning were Sener-
ally lower than those prevailing at the
close of yesterdays business, liberal gold
shipments and depressed values in the for
eign markets being the responsible agents.
Traders made several Intellectual at
tempts to rally the market on the publica-
ton of last months earnings, the unSatis-
factory exchange situation being superior
to all other forces. Values were not al
lowed to recede materially from the open
ing level, however, the lack of confidence
in immediate Improvement being expressed
in dizziness rather than in hostile activity.

The stock was rallied back to the opening
price on the announcement of the above
figures decline of l per cent having pre-
vicusly intarvened.
The selling of Chicago Gas on rumors Of
further legal complications was resumed
this morning, with the result that IA per
cent was detracted from the market price
of the stock 1t is difficult to judge of teh
reliability Of these rumors. the Attorney
General beiEg extremely reticent relative
to his intentions, although it is understood
that unless the plans meet his approval
he will begin action during the coming
week.
In the meantime friends of the reorgani-
cation party hope to demonstrate the le-
gality Of the proposed proceedings.
The trading of the last hour was purely
professional in character, the irregularity
during that period being due to the cover
ing of short contracts and continued sales
for that account by room traders.
The prospects continue favorable to d
protracted period of hatless trading, in
which concessions are the more probable.

A MY RE GULATIONS
The Revised Edition, After Careful Prepara-
ton, Has Now Been Issued.
1t is Much More Simple Than Those
Now in Use and All Special De-
tnils Are Eliminated.

The long expected revision Of the army
regulations has at last been issued. having
first been gone over by board of officers of
the adjutant generals department, then
being thoroughly revised by Gen. E. S. Otis,
commanding Department of the Columbia,
and finally having been again gone over
paragraph by paragraph by Gen. Doe assist
ant secretary of war; Major George w Davis,
eleventh infantry, and Capt. ]. T. French.
jr., assistant quartermaster. A thorough
and complete index has been prepared by
Capt. French and Mr.. Moody of the war
record Office.
In the revision an effort has been made to
eliminate from the regulations those rules
and provisions which have application only
to a limited number of officers of special
class and to leave only such regulations as
are general in their character. For example,
many of the old regulations in regard 10
minute details of the work of commisSaries,
medical officers, judge advocates, etc, have
been omitted. In place of the old regula-
tons in reference to the staff corps, there
will be issued special manuals or hand books
for each staff corps, which will have the
force of regulations, but will be more con-
venlent for all concerned.
An attempt has also been made to elimi-
rate.sofar as practicable, all detailed instruc-
tions as to the filling up of official blanks,
and, instead, it is provided that wherever
blanks are to be used, they will be furnish
ed by the adjutant general or other proper
officer, and will be filled up in accordance
with the directions printed upon the blank.
An effort has been made to simplify and
improve by cutting out unnecessary papers
and proceedings (by lessening the red
tape in word. the regulations in regard
to recruiting the issuing Of clothing. prop
erty respo visibility and the methods of pur-
chase of army supplies.
A most painstaking and laborious effort
has been made to improve in the direction
of brevity and clearness the composition
and phraseology of the regulations. Many
paragraphs of the regulations Of 1889 are
phenomena in the way of bad construction
and faulty syntax.
Under the new regulations an applicant
for promotion from the ranks will be re-
qrired to serve hcnorably not less than
two years in the ranks, exclusive of tech
meal service due to furlough or other alb
sence from duty in his own interest,"
An aid to general officers must have serv-
ed with troops three out of the preceding
five years. Service as an aid is limited to
four years, except when general officer is
to retire within year of the expiration Of
that period.
Leaves of absence for officers for more
than two months require the action of the
Secretary of War.
An officer on the active list who accepts
or exercises the functions of civil officer
thereby ceases to be an officer of the :.rny.
No officer on the active list can accept or
hold any office, military or otherwise ere
ated by state statutes.

L wy Frs ARGUING
Another Phase Of tho 0lmstead Will
Case. ..
All the re't'ntoa Has Been Intro
duced-Mr. Perry Begins
His speech.

The testimony ip the Olmstead will case.
in which more than 100000 is said to be in
volved. was concluded on both sides yes
terday afternoon, and this morning, after
Judge Bradley had passed upon the prayers
presented by either side, Mr.. r. Ross Perry,
on behalf of Mrs. Linda Hutchinson Webb,
who is contestins the will of her sister,
Mrs. John F. Olmstead, commenced the ar
guments to the jury. The arguments will
hardly be concluded before Monday after
noon, so that verdict is not expected
much earlier than Tuesday morning.
Mr.. Perry. in opening the arguments to
the jury, explained that they were not there
to impugn the right of anyone. man or wo-
man. to make will, but they were there
to determine whether Mrs. Olmstead. at the
time of making her will, June q, 1859, pos
to do 50: whether she then had mind enough
to fully understand it's effect; whether she
was unduly influenced by her husband. who
she made her sole and absolute beneHclary,
fraud. Ordinarily, said Mr.. Perry, will
is made for ones children, and the law is
exceedingly jealous where one attempts to
cut off those bound to the testator by ties
of blood. When that is attempted, he re-
marked. the law looks at the will with the
closest scrutiny and seriously questions 1t
when the natural course is departed from,
demanding that the great law OF natural
affection and blood ties shall be observed.
Such an unnatural departure, Mr.. Perry
intimated, had bean made in the present
Csse, the effect of Mrs. Olmstead's will be-
iEg. he said, to forever cut off her sister,
mother and uiece and all other blood rela-
tives, sending her estate, after her huS-
hands death, to his and not her own rela-
tiNes. Hence. said Mr.. Perry, her will and
all matters and persons connected with the
making of it should be closely scrutinized.
Calls 1t n Scheme.
Mr.. Perry then proceeded to discuss the
testimony in the case, claiming that 1t con-
clusively showed that Mrs. Olmstead'a will
was nothing more or less than the result
of cunningly-laid scheme on her husband
part to obtain control and part possession
of the late Hayward NJ. Hutchinson's estate.

OPENING A STREET,
The Legal Difficulties Over 37th
Street.

inc Legal DlmcultteS Over 37th
Street.
Several weeks ago the District Commits
sioners filed a petition praying for the
opening and extension of 37ti street, and
condemnation proceedings and the appoint
ment Of a commission of appraisers were
asked for, pursuant to recent act Of Con-
gress providing for :he opening and ex-
tension of the said street.
Plans prepared by the Commissioners
were filed by them in the case and in Cue
time the owners of the lands proposed to
be taken filed their answers. On the part
of those owners represented by them,
Messrs. Gordon and Gordon objected TO
the granting of the petition. contending
that the proposed plan of condemna ton, as
filed, was not in conformity with the pro-
visions and requirements of the acr of
Congress in question.
The matter was submitted to Chief JUS
tice Bingham yesterday, and this morning
he decided that the point made by Messrs.
Gordon and Gordon was we'll taken. The
court, therefore, denied the petition of the
Commissioners. 1t is understood, however,
that the Commissioners will later file an
other petition in the matter in conformity
with the provisions and requirements Of
the act.

Policeman Dyer of the Anacostia SUBJ

noticed three white youths going from

door, while the others went to the base
ment and acted in q suspicious manner gen.
orally. officer Dyer approached them, and
was about to take them into custody when
they noticed that he was in uniform, and
ran. He pursued them for some distance
on foot, but, finding he was getting behind,
jumped into wagon and drove rapidly
after them. By going through alleys, the
boys We're at last9 lost sight of, and Officer
Dyer was about to give up the chase, when
two of them, 8hoigave their names as
Harry Evans ana William Gill, and are
aged sixteen and seventeen years, respect

be begging for something to eat, but the

prisoners were locked up, seemed to think
that they are portion of band of thieves,

1t would be a good thing for some
one to publish map OF South
America on which that disputed
Trinidad Island is located. Judg-
ing from what the dispatches say
the Trinidad six hundred miles
out in the ocean from Rio Janeiro
is not the spot indicated, which is
said to be near the Venezuelan
coast. Wherever it Is, the Brazil
ians are determined to make a
smoke over its occupation by the
English. There is nothing in the
authorities to which the LIGHT has
access, and these include all the
latest maps and encyclopedias, to
throw any light upon this pesky
little island.
