Now their story is headed to the United States Supreme Court in a confrontation between the courts and the press that could lead to a major First Amendment decision. To reporters, prosecutors and media lawyers around the nation, the case from Stuart is becoming a test of when reporters can be forced to name their confidential sources.

Conspiracy theorists in the newspaper industry have long suggested that publishers slyly emphasize signs of gloom.

Unfortunately for publishers wedded to the doomsday scenario, 1992 brought some really good news for the news business.

A1 NOSTALGIA FOR THE OLD ORDER News analysis: The signing of the Start II treaty was a poignant final adventure in George Bush's Presidency.

International 3-13 A PROPOSAL TO REMAP BOSNIA Leaders of factions involved in the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina met in Geneva and began discussing plans to redraw the map of the former Yugoslav republic into 10 provinces. Creation of these regions, to be dominated in various areas by each of the combatants or in combination, would be an attempt to recognize territorial demands without formally engaging in ethnic partition. 1 Guests dodged snipers to attend a New Year's lunch in Sarajevo. 6 IN TOKYO, LESS WINING AND DINING Japan seems to be turning away from its conspicuous consumption of the late 1980's. Sales of Cognac and designer handbags are declining, and some say the trend may last. 1 U.N. PLANS SOMALI PEACE TALKS Secretary General Boutros-Ghali is in Somalia today, between stops in neighboring Ethiopia, where he is to convene a meeting of leaders of many of Somalia's battling factions in the hope of restoring some measure of civil authority. 3 BUSH ARRIVES IN MOSCOW Keeping President Yeltsin's weak domestic position in mind, the United States made significant concessions in a nuclear arms reduction treaty with Russia, Administration officials said. President Bush arrived in Moscow to sign the pact. 8 PANEL OPPOSES NEW KENYA VOTE An election-monitoring group said that fraud marred Kenya's balloting last week. But it declined to endorse calls for a new vote. 3 Lithuania's new Foreign Minister says policy has been too insular. 7 Afghanistan's new President pleaded for unity after a disputed vote. 9 Archeologists find the model of an early horse in Syria. 10 Russian defector says faulty radar doomed Korean airliner in 1983.

He'd better enjoy it while he can. 1 NEW SEASON ON CAPITOL HILL The 103d Congress will convene on Tuesday, with the Democratic majority hoping to prove that inaction in Washington can end now that there will be a Democratic President. 16 In Texas, there is no stampede to succeed Bentsen. 14 AN ISLAND UNDER SIEGE The North American Free Trade Agreement is posing a threat to Puerto Rico's economic gains. 1 WHERE THE CELLS ARE EMPTY Two years ago, needing an economic lift, the quiet farming town of Appleton, Minn., decided to go into the prison business. What it needs now are prisoners. 14 PSYCHIATRY AND THE CHURCH The long period of rocky relations between psychiatry and the Roman Catholic Church appears over. Indeed, many leaders of the profession who will meet with the Pope tomorrow are themselves Catholics. 22 A robot's descent into a volcano was called off when a cable broke. 15 Metro 23-28 FIGHT OVER APPROACH TO AIDS Earlier this month, St. Vincent's Hospital abruptly cancelled its annual observance of World AIDS Day.

By Marshall Schuon

WE talked here last week about Lincoln's Town Car, a prime example of modern technology applied to the big and somewhat old-fashioned version of American luxury. Spacious passenger compartment, rear-wheel drive, V8 engine, all that. But Ford revamped the Lincoln for 1990, and the real news in automotive cabin-cruisers this year comes from Cadillac, which has stretched and redesigned its 1993 Fleetwood four-door, making it the longest -- and generally the biggest -- production car sold anywhere in the world.
