I would say the photo predates 1892 -- when the new verticle sided undress cap was adopted -- tis guy is still wearing the kepi.

I would say that the photo dates to 1892 or slightly after. The officer appears to be wearing the short-lived 1892 jacket, and the new forage cap didn't come out until 1895. Of course, if these are volunteers, all bets are off!
