A Forty Page Paper.

Last Sundays Examiner was
printed on its new '.inset' presses,
and was forty page edition. The
paper is now published after the
style Of the New York Herald. Tie
old style of presses restrict the pub
fisher to an edition, the pages Of
which must tie multiples o. four,
such az eight. sixteen, thirtv.two
etc. The new style of press en-
ables the Publisher to PRINT any
number of pages.
The composing room sets NJ al
the matter that reaches them, and
the pages are sent down to the
stereotyping room as fast as they
are completed.
If rush of news comes after
midnight 1t makes no difference,
aud it is set mp regardless of the
size of the paper. Instead of an
eight page paper, it can ne nine
page, ten page, eleven or twelve,
or orty as required
This is az immense advantage to
a morning paper, and one which
will enable it To print all the news
at any time The Examiner made
a ten strike with It's forty page
edition, ami also gave to the public
a lot Of contributions in the shape
OF well SHOWN public men who for
the 6rst time contributed to a news
paper over their signatures.

A cRooM's GALL.

The papers are complimenting
the gallant fight made by Miss
Huntington to make her papa open
his purse to enable her to wed
Count somebody in Europe.
The compliments ought to 60 the
gallant and gall soaked groom, who
coolly asks G.. Z. Huntington not
only for his daughter, but a round
ten million for debts and dowery,
and Huntington, unable to stand
the combination of Count, maid
and mamma, is seriously proposing
to do it.
1t is pretty rough on US poor dew
lis in Nevada to think how we have
been paying high freight bills and
back freight bills all these wears to
see one Of these confounded Italian
Counts quietly coming in and scoop
ing the pile.
This business OF Americans going
over to Europe to secure some
broken down, pauperized noblemaD
for a son.in-law is lot of blasted
idiocy.
One family has hooked some
poor, miserable wretch with title,
AMI a lot OF other families are green
with envy until their girl has sue
ceeded in hooking a title also. OF
course, Huntington himself has too
much sense to willingly take hand
in this sort of foolishness, but his
daughter has an idea that she can
never meet the Countess Goaldlclm
until she is also titled woman,
and she fills her mamma up with
the idea, and then the two having
run across the game, make a dead
set at the old man, and they worry
the life out OF him until he comes
down.
These beggarIy noblemen are on
10 the combination, and they begin
to demand the wedding backsheesh
or whatever they call it, and if the
American bleeds readily, they cook
up lot of mythical debts, and then
they make a haul that keeps all
their poverty stricken relations III
meat twice a week for the rest OF
their lives.
If some American were to come
to C. p. Huntington and ask for his
daughter and ten millions thrown
in, he would get kicked down the
steps too quick

are preparing for struggle, and pickets are
placed at every railway station In London,
to prevent new hands reaching the gas
works.
South London is within q measurable dis
tance of absolute darkness, as there is no
electric light in that region, and with the
foggy season full upon us, and q is hours
night out of the "A, the outlook is certainly
not inspiring to those who have the mis-
fortune to live in South London.
ANOTHER STRIKE on.
Another great gas strike has already been
brought about at Manchester, where the
municipal corporation owns the gas works
and where the men turned ont to-day. The
corporation is making frantic efforts to get
new hands, and they have to some extent
succeeded, but nevertheless, Manchester is
threatened with partial darkness, the same
as South London. John Burns is on the
spot, encouraging the men, but he returns
to London on Monday to Organize the other
strike.
By the way, the chief agitator among the
South London stokers is one Austin, a born
orator and leader Of men, good workman
and a man of sound judgment. he will be
heard of again in these labor disputes. The
strengthening of the London police force by
the addition of ], 900 men was unexpected,
but the rapidly increasing area of modern
Babylon, and the labor involved in watch
ing the continual trade disputes, is sufficient
warrant for the increase.

GLADSTONE IN HIS ELEMENT.
The Grand Old Man Delighted with His Re.
ceptIou at Manchester.


ceptIou at Manchester.
lBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATcH.J
LONDON, December Mr.. Gladstone
had magnificent reception at Manchester,
and the speeches which he delivered have
animated and encouraged the home
rulers throughout the land. Mr.. Bal
four has also been speaking at
select ticket meetings in Glasgow
and Edinburgh, but he said nothing
new, and failed even to dish up the old facts
in an sppetizing or novel form. The only
thing at all remarkable about them. in
truth, was the vitriolic virulence with which
he attacked his political opponents. The
Nationalist organ, the FreeB1dn's Journal,
has made q weak attempt to emulate tn e
Balfourian style, in the following editorial
remarks:
The effeminately supercilious Mr.. Balfour,
the Scottish Mary Anne among politicians,
the pseudo aristocrat who diets himself upon
pills and saline mixtures, the theosophite
many doubts, shall not wind Up his suspicious
career in the manly clothing and the manly
accents which he assumes when far away from
Ireland, without final exposure.
1t will be interesting to many Americans
to know that Mr.. Gladstone returned home
to Hawarden after his four days campaign
in Manchester in undiminished health and
strength. He narrowly escaped q cold,
though. On Monday he rode In the bitter
east wind through the streets of Manchester
bareheaded. AS rule the Grand Old Man
takes cold easily, but he saws he never suf-
fers through going without his headgear, and
this be ascribes to invariably discarding his
hat when working out of doors at Hawarden.
The old man expressed himself as delighted
with the unanimity and enthusiasm Of the
Liberal delegates at Manchester. He de-
clared it sure augury of victory.

Great Bank In America.
NEW YORK, December 7.-Archbishop
Corrigan was seen this afternoon in regard
to statement published this morning that
a great Roman Catholic bank with a capl-
tai of 500, ,0OO, 900. was about 10 be started
in this city. The Archbishop said:
''You can deny the whole thing, most pos
itively. This Mr.. Leybourn is most con-
summate liar The whole thing is gigantic
scheme Of swindling. have never in any
shape or form given any sanction or couu-
tenanee to Mr.. Leybourn's scheme. Mr..
Eugene Kelly, Mr.. Hoguet and Mr.. james
Lynch, who have been mentioned in connec-
ton with the matter, all of them state most
positively that they would never approve it
The story that have had friends in the
Vatican pushing the scheme is .an unmiti-
ga ted falsehood. The Vatican has never
written line TO me, or to them, in refer
ence to the matter. Moreover. there are
documents in my possession which eharac-
terize Mr.. Leybourn as liar and a fraud.
This papal benediction does not amount to
anything. It is simply blank form which
anyone can buy and fill IN"
Archbishop Corrigan then showed the re-
porter long letter which he had received
from Colonel" Leybourn, asking the Arch
bishops support for the proposed bank, and
offering him ], 900 shares of stock of the en-.
terprise if he received the Archbishop's sup
port. The Colonel" also said thar il the
enterprise succeeded he had reason to know
that someone might receive red stockings,
Eliminating, OF course,i thereby" said the
Archbishop, 'fthat might be made Car
6inal, beside offering me bribe. took no
notice of any of the fellows letters, and
when he called he was not admitted to the
house, and orders were given to the butler
ever"
