nished at Lower Rates, and the Quail
isy as Well as Quantity Improved.
Readers of the GLOBE have been frankly
advised of the tendency among the leading
papers to reduce their rates to the public.
This course, for some time, has been
inevitable. The price of news
papers had not, until recently,
been reduced since the advance which
took place during the war. Nearly every
thing else has suffered decline, but news
papers have stood at one dollar per month,
the same as in 1865. There was some
reason for the retention of ''war prices,"a as
labor has increased rather than
declined, and additional expen-
ditures for news have been
enormous. 1t was on these accounts,
doubtless, that the decline has been SO
long delayed.
The GLOBE has, however, decided to meet
the popular demand for cheaper newspa-
pers, without impairing the quality of the
paper. In fact, it will be greatly improved
in every respect, no labor or expense being
spared to make it still
more complete as d news
paper than it has been. With the intro
duction of its new perfecting press the
GLOBE will be increased in size to an ex-
tent equal to the addition of five of its
present. columns. The plans for add
tionaI news service, which cannot be fully
developed until our new quarters and new
press facilities are available, are simply
immense, far surpassing anything
heretofore attempted in this locality.
All of this we hope to have
duly insugurated early in January, when
our new thirty thousand dollar press, with
a capacity OF producing fifteen thousand
newspapers per hour, is set in operation.
To reduce the price of a newspaper and
correspondingly cheaper the subject mat
ter it affords, would by no means be ap
preciated, but when coupled with the re-
duct1on, improvement In every department
takes place, we feel sure the movement will
be welcomed.
The publishers of the GLOBE have, &C
cordingly decided, Notwithstanding the
increase in size and quality proposed, to
make the price of the paper, on and after
December 1, 1883, EIGHT DOLLARS
PER YEAR, for seven issues per week,
delivered by carrier, and SIX DOL
LARS PER YEAR for six issues per week,
Sundays issue omitted) sent by mail.
AS first class newspaper is thus placed
within the reach of all, it is trusted that
the circulation of the GLOBE will only be
limited by the population within its
geographical radius.
The following are the rates in detail on
and after Dec. l, 1888:

THE DEMooKATiC CAUCUS.

The speakership contest was terminated
10y the Democratic caucus at Washington
last evening and resulted, as had been fore
Swallowed by the GLOBE dispatches, by the
selection of Carlisle, of Kentucky. This
result is exactly what the Republicans
most desired and consequently was
exactly what should not have been done.
Mr.. Carlisle is an able, heightened, honor
able gentleman, but his elevation
to the speakers chair will ena-
BILE the Republicans to revive the
dead war issues-the only basis of hope
which the Republicans have for success.
The selection of Mr.. Carlisle can be set
down as blunder number one for the Dem
Ocratic congress, and hsndicaps the COM
ing Presidential campaign.
While this is true an equal, or perhaps
greater blunder would have been made if
Randall had been chosen, owing to his
protective tariff views. Of the two blum
ders it was undoubtedly best to
accept the least by nominating
Carlisle. but there are score of Demo
cratic members who would have filled the
Speakers chalr aoceptably and have
avoided the objection which lie against
either Carlisle or Randall. good deal
now depends upon the committees which
Mr.. Carlisle may form, and if he does not
make blunder number two in that matter.
it will be both matter of surprise and
congretulation.
The selection of Leedow, of Ohio for
Sergeant-at-arms, and Clark, of Tennes-
see, for Clerk, was the carrying out Of the
Carlisle programme, and has no signii-
caucs which is not covered by the selec-
ton of the speaker.
The nomination will, of course. he rati-
fed on Monday, the Republicans giving
Keller the empty compliment of a minori-
ty vote-a vote which would not be given
if the party was in the majority.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-Word comes to-
night direct FROM the highest and most
conservative representative of the whisky
interest in Louisville that the owners of
whisky will very much modify their de-
mands from those made last winter. There
was too much talk last winter, they say,
and too much asked.
WARRINGTON, D. c., Dec. LIN the
house Democratic caucus was held to-
night. A resolution was offered by DORIS
heimer OF New York that the voting be
uiUo uoce. Adopted-Yeas 104, nays 80.
This is claimed by Carlisle's friends to
foreshadow his nomination. First ballot
not yet completed, but Carlisle has already
received 104 votes, more than enough to
nominate him. He will be the caucus nom
inee. The Democratic members elect as
sembled in the hall of the house this even
ing for the purpose of nominating
candidates to fill the various elective
Offices. Gen. Rosencrans called the caucus
to order. Geddes, of Ohio, was elected
chairman. Willis, of Kentucky, and Dbl
bic, of South Carolina, secretaries. Cald-
well, of Tennessee, and Stockslager, of In
diana, tellers. Roll call disclosed. the pres
ence of 1874 members. at the completion
of the roll call, according to the unofficial
tally of the list, 1O7 members voted Car
Isle, 45 Randall, and IS Cox. The official
announcement has not yet been made and
there may be some changes, but it will be
in Carlisle's favor. He is therefore the
caucus nominee for speaker. Carlisle's
nomination was made unanimous. The

-Four other members came in subse-
quently, making total of 1873. Carlisle,
Randall and Cox absented themselves
| from the caucus and occupied the rooms
of the committee of appropriations, com
mittee of ways and means, and foreign af-
fairs committee, being their respective
headquarters. AS soon as the roll call was
completed Dorsheimer, of New York, of
fered resolution providing that the votes
IN the caucus for the nominating of candi-
date for speakership be uiuo Uoce. The
resolution was agreed to on division Of
104 against 80, but the.yeas and nays were
demanded, and Nichols, of Georgia, of
fered an amendment in the nature of a
substitute providing the votes be by bal
lot. The roll was called on the
amendment and it was rejected
| by seventy-fve to 113. Dorsheimer's
resolution was adopted without debate.
Nomination for the speakership was de-
clared in order and the candidates were
placed in nomination as follows: John G

Of New York. The roll was called by
states. The progress of the voting was

fered with the artistic effect of the Broadway

which characterized the spectacle possibly,
also, the picture was drawn and engraved sever
al days before the occurrence, and when there
was no reason to expect that storm would pre-
vail last Monday. A similar mishap befen the
same enterprising sheet in 1876 on the
occasion of the opening of the
centennial exposition in Philadelphia. The
double page picture representing the event was
circulating extensively through the city when a
telegram was received from Philadelphia, order
ing the sketch to be replaced by one showing
everybody present protected by umbrellas. The
alteration was quickly effected by cutting ont
from the plate the portions containing view of
the spectators and substituting rapidly exc
cuted engraving of mass Of men surmounted
by umbrellas. Enterprise occasionally over

MILITARY circles are discussing the cause of
the greater heathfulness of colored than of
white soldiers. The surgeon generals report
for 1888 shows that the four colored regiments
in the United States service had the smallest
percentages of sickness and of deaths from
disease of any part of our army. OF the
whites an average of thirty eight in each !, 900
were constantly under treatment in the hospi-
tails; of the blacks only thirty in each LOCO
Seven white soldiers died of disesse for every
six colored soldiers. In the case of
wounds, however, the whites made
showing Indicating greater vitality, as
five colored soldiers died from such cause to
every three whites. This was reversed again
in the matter OF diseases arising from over IN
dulgence in alcoholic drink. The deaths due to
Drunkenness were only four psr 1,0U0 of the
colored soldiers against seventy-six per 1000
of the whites. Whistler this indicates greater
temperance on the part of the colored troops, or
greater capacity for outstanding the effects of

ENGLISH courts are prompt. The ''Avenger''
O'Donnell was found guilty in London yeiter-
day of the murder OF Carey, and was immeei-
ately sentenced to be hanged. The Judge, in
charging the jury, cautioned them not to be
governed by what they might have read on the
subject in the newspapers, which latter he re-
garded as largely responsible for the crime. The
charge was strongly against the prisoner, the
judge renarking that the foundations of society
would be sapped if it was supposed
the life OF an Infamous person
might be encusably taken. The jury
retired at seven, and seems to have been pretty
nearly unanimous, for notwithstanding that
they returned twice to the court room for IL
structons, the fact OF their bringing in verdict
of 'wilfull murder was cabled to New York in
time for announcement il the evening papers,
ODonnen received his sentence with stolid
composure, bnt afterward gave way to an out
burst of passion which seriously weakened the
eympathy he had gained by his discreet conduct
during the trial. Gen. Roger A. Pryor, who
had been retained for the defence, seems to have
been excluded from all active participation in
the conduct of the case, the English counsel on
the same side having threatened to withdraw if
he insisted upon being heard, and the prisoner
after consultation with them deciding in their
favor.
