Capstone International Series Trust

Dear Sirs:
As counsel for Capstone Nikko Japan Fund (the "Fund"), a series of
Capstone International Series Trust, during the fiscal year ended October 31,
1995, we are familiar with the Fund's registration under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 and with the registration statement relating to its shares of
beneficial interest (the "Shares") under the Securities Act of 1933 (File No.
33-6867) (the "Registration Statement"). We have also examined such other
corporate records, agreements, documents and instruments as we deemed
appropriate.
Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion with respect to the Shares
the registration of which is being made definite by the Notice pursuant to Rule
24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Notice") being filed by the
Fund for its fiscal year ended October 31, 1995, assuming such Shares were sold
at the public offering price and delivered by the Fund against receipt of the
net asset value of the Shares in compliance with the terms of the Registration
Statement and the requirements of applicable law, that such Shares were, when
sold, duly and validly authorized, legally and validly issued, and fully paid
and non-assessable.
We consent to the filing of this opinion in connection with the Notice
on Form 24F-2 to be filed by the Fund with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the Fund's fiscal year ended October 31, 1995.
Very truly yours,
/s/Dechert Price & Rhoads
