LEGALITY QUESTIONED.
Bill I'm Equity Filed to EnvnIidate an
Election,

A bill in equity for an injunction was to-
day filed by Andrew Archer and Louis +.
Shoemaker, the latter as executor of the
estate of Pierce Shoemaker, deceased, for
an injunction, naming as defendants limo
thy w. Murphy, Albanus l.. Johnson,
George T. bearing, William \. H. Church,
James W. Barker, Matthew 6. Emery,
Jesse B. Wilson, James L. Petty and
James F. Oyster.
1t is stated in the bill that the third Mon
day of January. 1897. Messrs. Johnson.
bearing, Church, Barker, Emery and VIII
son and Talbert a. Lambert were re-elect-
ed as board of managers of the Mutual
Fire Insurance Company of the District OF
Columbia. An election for a new board
was held the 18th instant, it is set forth,
and a large number of votes were cast by
proxy, notwithstanding the protests OF the
complainants, who maintain that under
the charter of the company voting by
proxy is wholly unauthorized. and that all
such votes are Illegal and void
1t is stated further in the bill that unless
the court affords relief the property ana
business of the company will pass into the
hands and under the control of an UNI
authorized and illegal board of managers
and that the standing and credit OF the
company will be seriously ard permanent
ly impaired.
The court is therefore asked to restrain
the defendants from organizing as board
of managers and Messrs Petty and Oyster
be restrained from altering the ballots,
proxies, protests and other papers.
Judge Cox issued temporary restraining
order returnable February 4. Messrs.
Worthinyton and Heald and ]. NJ. Wilson
are the solicitors for the compliments.
The annual election Of the officers of the
company was to have taken place today,
but at the meeting of the board of manage
ers at the Office this morning they were
served with the notice of an injunction,
brought for the purpose Of setting aside
the recent election, and on this account the
choice of officers was not proceeded with.

JUDGE LONGS PENSION.
Commissioner Evans Has Decided
Adversely to the Increased Rate.

Commissioner Evans Has Decided
Adversely to the Increased Rate.
Considerable pressure has been brought
to bear on the commissioner Of pensions
to restore the pension of Judge Long Of
Michigan to $72 per month. which was re-
duced by Commissioner Lochren to $50 a
month.
AS exclusively stated in The Star several
days ago, the commissioner of pensions has
finished his investigation of the case. and
has decided the application adversely. The
papers have not yet been sent to the Sec
rotary of the Interior for final action.
1t Is understood that the investigation OF
this case brought TO light some facts,
which. il true, will probably result in a
further investigation. Briefly. 1t Is that
Judge Long received the maximum pension
as an increase without undergoing medi-
cal examination. This is something I'M
usual in the history of the Office. When
ever a pension Is increased the invarable
practice of the department is to have the
pensioner examined by the board of nedi-
cal pension examiners. OF course, where
there is a specific law increasing the PEN
sion this is not done. but in Judge Long
case, 1t is asserted that there was no medf-
cal examination ordered when the increase
was made.

HANDLE BAR REGULATIONS
Views of ". G. Robertson of the L. A. W.
Submitted Today.
Commfssfoners VIII Consider the
Suggestion Made by Him of an
Amendment to Law.

At the request of Commissioner Wight.
Mr.. w. G. Robertson of the l.. A. w. to-
day submitted a statement of his conclu-
sions, after a careful study of the police
regulation relating to the drop of bicycle
handle bars. In connection with his state
ment. Mr.. Robertson filed with Mr. Wight
a number Of drawings and photographs, for
the purpose of illustrating the positions as
sumed by riders of bicycles while using
handle bars Of different heights.
The mere fact, says Mr.. Robertson, that
a machine is provided with a handle bar
lower than is allowed by the police regula-
ton, four inches below the saddle does not
require the rider to lean forward and as
sumo reckless position. To support this
proposition drawing showing a rider US
ing ram horn handle bar thirteen inches
below the saddle is submitted by Mr.. Rob-
ertson, and while the rider would be ou-
serving one section of the police regula-
ton. the one requiring him to have a clear
line OF vision directly ahead of him, yet
ne would De violating the section referring
TO the drop of his handle bar.
AFTER referring to the other drawings and
photographs, Mr.. Robertson goes on to
say that from them IL can be seen that a
regulation limiting the drop of the handle
par VIII not obviate reckless riding, nor
even tend to II, as the many ridiculous bars
now being used to get around the regula-
ton are more dangerous. in his opinion
than a low drop bar. He suggests that the
rider be made to assume a position which
will prevent recklessness. The only way
to do this, he claims, is to require tn. rider
to look ahead of him. The regulation as it
is now enforced. he thinks, not only does
lot accomplish the object, but is a hard
ship to the majority of riders.
Mr. Robertson claims that il is a we'll
known fact that q better control of the
machine can BE- secured by a low bar. and
that there is not the liability of accident
with them. AT the time the regulation was
first published, he says, II seemed as If 1t
would be an advantage to the general pub
lie, but he contends that it has. instead.
turned out TO be just the opposite. He
therefore recommends that the regulation
be SO changed as to provide that mo BIZ
cycle shall be ridden on the streets within
the city limits with the rider In such a po-
sition that will not allow him at all times
to command view of not less than 800
feet striking out of the regulation all
reference to the drop OF the handle bars.
Mr.. Wight will submit the matter 10 the
board of Commissioners, but has not yet
determined what recommendation, If any,
he will make to the board.

FINANCE AND TRADE
Cuban News Caused q Break ca
Stock Exchange.
EARLY MARKET OPENED STRONG
Granger Shares Were Neglected
and Showed a Decline.
GENERAL MARKET REPORTS

Special Dispatch TO The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, January 24.-opening prices
this morning were generally steady around
Saturdays closing level Manhattan aud
Northern Pacific preferred being exceptions
to the dominant tendency.
The volume OF business was small, and
conferred in the specialties OF last week,
namely, the Gas, Traction and Vanderbilt
issues.
The Granger shares are out OF favor with
the professional element and this group is
consequently barely steady. Burlington was
sold during the morning or the failure to
get decision on the maximum freight rate
case. but recovered later I'm the day under
covering.
Advances OF per cent in New York
Central. II. per cent in Consolidated Gas
and liz per cent In Manhattan were re-
corded at the beginning OF the noon hour.
anc the strength OF the entire market was
attributed to the buying behind these is
Sues.
During the latter part of the same hour
the market broke suddenly under the in
nuence OF Washington adviccs announcing
That the Maine had been ordered to Ha-
vana. While this report was denied
promptly, subsequent report that the en-
tire squadron would be in view of the Gu
ban coast tomorrow served to unsettle the
entire list.
The conciliatory speech in the House last
week Is still remembered IN financial cif-
Giles. and there are unmstakabe evidences
of apprehension resulting from the phases
OF the situation not discussed therein.
Warranted not. Wall street is extremely
sensitive on the subject of Cuba.
Tie vote on the Teller resolution next
Thursday is regarded as significant to the
extent that IL Will Indicate the obstacles
i'm the way of all conservative financial
legislation. Beyond this the roafiirming ~
an ancient resolution has no influence on
either prices sentiment.
The action of one Of the larger govern
ment bond houses i'm reducing its bid for
government securities had depressing In
fiuence on stocks during the finar hour.
Surface indications. even to the most con-
servatiYe, must reflect the tension resulting
from the uncertainties of a situation which
may become involved al any moment.
During the final trading IL was evident
that the selling was better than the buy
ing. and that the argument was against i'm
proved values. The market. of course. was
weak under the influence of short selling
rather than liquidation. hut should today's
fears be realized the selling of long hold
ings would not long be delayed
on the other hand, should the rumors
prove to be unfounded. a sharp recovery IL
certain. Railroad earnings showing in
creases nearly Is per cent above the same
period last year, cheap money and a desire
to see higher prices would force a sharp
advance should war rumors give way Ia
routine conditions.
For the next few days. however. Wash
ington VIII give direction to prices.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

An amusing incident occurred at the
opening of the session Of the House today.
Mr.. Kleberg (Tex.), rising to a question
of personal privilege, called attention to a
poll of the House on the immigration bill
printed in a New York paper this morning.
He said he had been made to favor the
bill, when he was unalterably opposed to
1t.
Mr.. Dockery. (Mo) also said he had with
out his authority been made to favor the
measure.
II suggest that the roll be called" eX-
claimed Mr.. Cannon Qll), land the poll
corrected"
"'The chair thinks the jurisdiction of the
House does not 80 beyond the Congress
sional Record" muttered the Speaker
dryly.
Mr.. Boutelle (Me.C, chairman of the
committee on naval affairs, reported back
the two resolutions calling on the Sec
rotary of the Navy for information to
the suitability of sites for an armor plate
factory in the south, with the recommended
ton that they lie on the table. The re-
port called attention to the fact that in
vitations had been issued for sealed pro-
posals for the land, buildings and machin-
cry for government armor plate factory,
which would be opened January %. 1898.
and that the Secretary when these We're
opened would send special report to Corr
gress containing all information. In view
of the fact that the Secretary was pro-
ceeding to carry out the law, Mr.. BoutelIe
said he thought it unnecessary to call
on the Secretary for information which
he would furnish.
The first resolution was laid upon the
table without division, but Mr.. Under
wood (Ala.) insisted upon a division upon
his resolution calling upon the Secretary
for the Information obtained by. the armor
plate board as to the advantages of south
ern places as locations for an armor plate
plant. but, by a vote of 101-105, the reso-
tuition was tabled.
Mr.. Curtis Qowa) then claimed the day
for business from the District Of Columbia
| committee.
