BANKRUPTCY RULES.

Announced To-Day by Judge Gray of
 the United States Supreme Court
 Washington, Nov. 2S.-The United States supreme court to-day through Judge Gray announced the new bank ruptcy rules which it was authorized to frame ard promulgate under the na- tional bankruptcy act of July i, 1898. The rules have been awaited with much interest, as number of courts declined to proceed with bankruptcy cases un- til the supreme court announced the new rules.
 Judge Gray said that the new rules would take effect on Monday, January g. 1899, and that all proceedings here- tofore taken substantially in conformi- ty to the act and the regulations of 1867 as far as practicable would be up- held. The rules while promulgated at this time he said, would not be ready for distribution for some time, owing to proof revision, etc.
 The rules are preceded by an order prescribing in the proceedings in bank ruptcy under the law previous to the day in which the rules go into effect. This order is to the effect that where the proceedings are lin substantial con- formity, either with the provisions of these general orders or else with the general orders established by this court under the bankruptcy act of 1867, and with any general rules of special orders of the court in bankruptcy they shall stand good, subject, however, to such further regulations by rule or order of n A. 1,z ncepr f,,,
 proper to carry into force and effect the bankrupt act of 1898 and the gener- al orders of this court"
 The first rule requires the clerk of | the court to keep a docket for entering cases in their order, with a memoran- dunn of all proceedings except those en- tered by the reference. The docket is to be at one time open to public inspec- tion.
 Rules 2, and relate successively to the filing of papers, to processes, to the
 conduct of proceedings, to the framing of petitions The clerk is required to endorse on each paper filed the time of | it's receipt All processes are to issue under the seal of the court It is re- I auired that all petitions and schedules shall be plainly writtend and without | abbreviation or interlineation.
 | Under the head of Conduct of pro- | ceedings,' rule 4, it is provided that proceedings may be conducted by the 1 bankrupt in person in his own behalf,
 or by petitioping or opposing credi- 7 tor; but a creditor will only be allowed 1 to manage before the court his indivld-
 ual interest. Every party may appear
 and conduct the proceedings by attor-
 ney, who shall be an attorney and coun- sellor authorized to practise in the cir cult or district court. Notices and or- | ders not required to be served on the 1 party personally may be served upon
 his attorney.

THE QUAY INDICTMENTS.
DemurIers and Motion to Quash
 Filed

DemurIers and a Motion to Quash
 Filed.
 Philadelphia, Nov. 2S.-The case of Senator Quay and others charged with conspiracy in the misuse of the money of the state on deposit in the Peoples bank came up to-day in the court of quarter sessions, Judge Finietter pre- siding. The defendants, who are Sen- ator M. S. Quay, his son Richard R. Quay, and Benjamin J. Haywood, ex- state treasurer, were not in court, their interests being looked after by their attorneys, Rufus F. Shopley and A. s. L. Shields.
 Immediately upon the opening of court MT. Shopley filed demurrers to four of the five indictments found against the defendants by the grand jury, and also filed motion to quash the fifth indictment. Argument on these demurrers was proceeded with by MT Shopley. In general the objections to the indictments were based on conten- tions of insufficient specifications, com plete failure to charge any unlawful act, and an absence of allegation that the defendants unlawfully obtained any money, either from the bank or from any other source. If the defendants did as the indictments charge, purchase stocks and bonds through Cashier Hop kins, as agent, MT. Shopley claimed that no unlawful act had been commit ted. He claimed that banks every day act as purchasers for their depositors or customers.
 Regarding the allegation respecting the use of state moneys, he argued that all moneys deposited in bank go in the general fund of the bank, and that, therefore, the indictments are defective in charging misuse of state funds ob tained from the Peoples bank, it was funds of the Peoples bank and not state funds. Furthermore, he claimed that these state funds were deposited in the bank by various state treasurers in full authority of law.
 Upon conclusion of the arguments of Messrs. Shapey and Shields and the re- ply of District Attorney Shields the judge took the papers under advise- ment. He did not intimate when he would announce his dec sien.
