The State prison at Saltwater should be

It was the GLOBE that first opened its battery

TRADE WITH PERSIA.

Minister Kasson, in a letter to the secre-

the late reception to the Shah of Persia, by
the Emperor of Austria, says if the United
States desires a commercial treaty with the
Shah it is very probable a favorable one
could be now obtained, which may be an

The whole external trade of Persia is con-

SENATOR THURMAN.
The Proposition to Run Him for Governor

Rejected by Him on Account of His
Physical Condition.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.l
CINc1NNATI, Dec. 15.-Within the past
week plan to place Senator Thurman at
the head of the next State Democratic ticket
has gianed ground rapidly, many of the
Democratic newspapers and party leaders
having expressed themselves decidedly in its
favor. Thurman is the strongest man. To
carry his own State is a necessary step to
the Presidency, ana as he has more at stake
than any one else, he ought to be willing to
make the fight. The plan received violent
setback yesterday in the form of positive
and unequiyocal announcement from Thur
man himself that, under no circumstances.
would he accept nomination for governor.
He cannot, he says, subject himself to the
strain of such canvass. He has just gone
through a campaign which few men of his
age would have attempted, and he does not
feel that it would be justice to his physical
condition to try another.

Garfield es. Thurman.

If Thurman is to be nominated for Gov
ernor of Ohio in order to test his availability
as Presidential candidate, may not the
Ohio Republicans take hint from the man
euver and pit Genera. Garfield against him
for the double purpose of defeating Thurman
for Governor and making Garfield Fresi-
dental candidate on their side? IF Garfield
should beat Thurman for Governor, as he
undoubtedly would, it would give him great
prestige in race between the two for the
White House.

an appropriation of 100000 to prevent the

covered that Judge Key was in earnest in
his threat to withdraw the cars.
ARMY SUBSISTENCE.
communication was sent to the House
yesterday by the secretay of war asking that
an additional appropriation of 100000 for
the subsistence Of the army, be made imme-
diately. The secretary says that this sum is
absolutely necessary, and if appropriated
now will obviate the necessity of deficiency
bill later in the session. He also promises
that if this sum is appropriated now, an
equal sum can be deducted for the mainten-
ance of the army for the coming fiscal
year.
NEW YORK APPOINTMENTS
The Democratic Senators who have been
friendly to Senator Conkling, have agreed
that no action shall be taken upon the New
York custom house appointments until
after the senatorial election in New York
in January. It is believed that the Repub-
licans will make the same agreement. There
IS Democratic authority Tor the statement
that none of the Democrats who helped
Conkling defeat the nominations of the
President the last session will vote for the
Presidents nominations now. At the same
time several of these Senators, as we'll as
several of the administration Senator's, are
inclined to favor any course which will re-
lieve Conkling of embarrassment.

Fate of q Lost CO'Ony.

The lost Norwegian Colony, on the
east coast of Greenland,i lis brought tomind
by the expeditions now fitting out for
Arctic explorations. Over ZOO years ago
GeenlaSd was discovered by adventure
Gus Norsemen, and the settlement of the
county dates back as far as the year 987.
Two fiourishing colonies-one from Den
mark land the other from Norway-occu
pied the east and west coasts for period
of 800 years, and though separated by 80
miles of desert, they had no trouble in
sustaining themselves independently of
each other by means of fishing and cattle
raising, the pastnrage of the hills and
valleys being in those days luxuriant,-
The western colony had at one time four
parish churches and ITO farm villages,
while that on the a coast; still larger
had two towns, 100 farm villages, eleven
parish churches, and two monasteries,
and was the seat of bishopric. About
1850 the Danish colony, having been
weakened by pestilence, was exteI minat-
ed by Esquimaux, and early in the next
century is Norwegian neighbor disap-
peared suddenly aud mysteriously from
human knowledge. Numerous attempts
to learn definitely of their fate were made
but the only Information ever obtained
was contained in a letter from Pope
Nicholas V. 10 the Bishop of Ireland
dated 1448, which stated that the Colony
had been attacked by hostile fleet thirty
years before, and laid waste with fire and
sword. The story, however was not
generally credited. In 1922 Capt. Scor-
esby discovered houses containing hunt
ing apparatus end household utensils, but
no inhabitants, and there is reason to
believe that tho dwellings were relics I,
the long-lost colony. Some people are
still of the opinion that beyond the ice
fields remnant of these hardy Morse
ment may yet be found, and an ex-offi-
Ger of the United States Navy goes so far
rs to say that "the grandest Undertaking
of the age would be to reach that isolat-
ed island"

What the Potter Investigation
has Accomplished.

FTo1D We PhNddetphtd WteS.
The Potter investigation is not near its
end, but the holiday recess of the COM
mittee affords fair opportunity to con-
slider what it has already accomplished.
Mr.. Sherman has been entangled in a
net of circumstantal evidence, to say
nothing of that which is direct, but dis
puted from which extrication seems i'm
possible; and Mr.. Stanley Matthews is
buried beyond resurrection under the
weight of his own letters.
1t is no light matter for the purposes
of investiga ion that the Democrats have
been able to show the character of the
men who have been the managers of the
Republican party in the South. 1t was
known that there We're villains among
them, and now, SO far as Louisiana is
concerned, the theory that there were
any exceptions has been well nigh dis
proved. The Jenkses, Webers, Ander.
sons, Pitkins, Pinkstons, and the rest tell
their own stories, and no more is needed
10 disclose their depravity. There can
be no more striking illustration of the
straits of Republican partisans than the
fact that whether these people testify
| for or against them they are obliged to
admit their knavishness. The more an
Anderson or Weber is denounced, the
stronger is the Indictment of the Repab-
lican party, of which they have been the
evangelsts. Certainly it is an anomaly
in politics that if you fog Democratic
witness you cripple Republican states
man.

THE FIRST EXCURSION TO OCEAN CITY
THE NEW IMPROVEMENTS AT THE
MARYLAND RESORT.


"All aboard!" was called out yesterday
morning, at 8 o'clock, and the first excur-
sion train from this city, slowly moved
out of the p. w. & b. r. R., depot for
Ocean City. There were but few on
board from this city, but before the train
reached its destination there weress about
ole hundred persons on board, most of
whom got on at Seaford. In few min
utes after the train left the depot, it mov-
ing along at good rate ofspeed, and the
cool morning air was very exhibirating,
and the rain of Wednesday had laid the
dust, and so the passengers were not
troubled with that until they got below
Dover, there the rain having apparently
stopped. The train arrived at Ocean
| City, on time at 9.45 without delay or ac-
cident. The passengers left the train
and soon wended their way to the differ
ent hotels, for the purpose Of engaging
dinner.
AT II o'clock, the usual bathing houl
most of those who went down, wendeC
their way to the beach, and were soor
seen plunging in the old ocean. The
ocean seemed to be in sportive mood
and ever and anon left some one Of th'
bathers off of their feet, and send then

There have been.several improvement
made at the beach since last year, amont
them being the enlargement of the Seasid

TERRIBLE MOWER AcCIDENT.-On
Monday last Nicholas Codori prominent
citizen OF Gettysburg, Pa, met with a ter
rible accident, which may result in his
death, while engaged in cutting timothy
grass in field on one of his farms, near
that place, with amowing machine which
was drawn by two spirited young horses.
The animals through some cause or other
took fright and ran away, and Mr.. Codori
was throwh from his seat upon the sharp
knives, which so fearfully mangled one of
his legs that it hung by mere skin and
flesh. Other portions of his body were
also frightfully mutilated.
