AN IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.
Swedish Navigator Discovers an Open
Northern Passage to China

NEW YORK, October 26.--A Herald
special from Philadelphia reports the
receipt Of information from Sweden an
nouncing the discovery Of an open way
to the Arctic Sea. Professor Vordeeski-
old sailed ON an exploring expedition
from Hammerfest, Sweden, in the be-
ginning of August, and demonstrated the
correctness OF his theory regarding an
open way to the Arctic Sea.
He reports having encountered no
obstacles and considers the way now
quite open from Europe to China via
the northern passage and the valley of
the Yemsi River, by which steam COM
municatlon Is obtained across Siberia
and almost to the frontiers of China.
An immense unmeasured area OF eX-
tremely valuable land was found in this
region, all of which is accessible for i'm.
mediate cultivation. Scientific obser-
yations were constantly carried on DUR
ing the entire voyage. One Of the unex-
pectedly favorable phenomena OF the
passage, the Professor reports, was that
the water was found to be surprisingly
warm.

NEWS FROM THE METROPOLIS
Disasters at, Sea.

NEW YORK, October 26.-The steamer
City Of Havana arrived from Havana
yesterday, after run of three days and
fifteen hours. She reports a hurricane
that was terribly severe and casualties
numerous. The paddle-wheel steamer
Cuba, owned by Spaniards, lying unoc-
cupled i'll the harbor, was sunk. Four
large lighters containing valuable
goods, principally from New York, also
went down in the harbor, and several
vessels were blown ashore.
Other vessels are reported to have

Newspaper War.
The reduction in the price OF the Her.
aid from to 3 cents has inaucurated a
newspaper war. The Herald, when the
retail price was 4 cents, was sold to
news-dealers for 3, but the present
reduction in the retail price has not
been accompanied by corresponding
reduction to news-dealers, who are now
forced to pay 2H cents, by which they
lose a cent profit. Many Of the dealers
have refused TO sell the Herald, hoping
to force it to come to their terms.
Mr.. Bennett, however, has arranged for
agents to carry, aud newsboys to dis
tribute the paper, ana has announced
i,,fA l1u, i,h
public for 3 cents, no matter what may
be the action Of The incensed newsmen.
Last night about three hundred news
dealers held meeting and formed
permanent organization, elected officers,
and then passed resolutions setting forth
that the present wholesale price OF the
Herald does not leave margin enough to
make sufficient profit to enable them to
supply the paper to customers; and a
committee Of three was appointed to
call on James Gordon Bennett and ask
reduction OF the wholesale price to "a
cents per copy.
The Herald editorially this morning.
comments upon the moderation which
marked the meeting, but informs the
Committee in advance that it can not
accede 10 the request of the newsmen.
The reduction OF the price has added
greatly to The circulation of the paper;
the gain reached eleven thousand before
the end of the week. 1t says the ex-
pertinent of reducing the price is already
great success, and the threatened op-
position futile.
