Flour is quiet. Wheat closed with q rather
better tone this morning, but there is still want
of confidence and but little disposition to specu-
late; prime dry milling lots only command good
figures while low grades are neglected Corn is
fairly active and the receipts not equal to the
local demand. There is change in prices of
produce with good ste"dy demand for all choice
lots at full quotations. Bacon is shade lower.

nnNAIL nlAON IN CnnLERA

The rebDlt Of Cunsul Mason, of Marrcilles To
his department., upon the cholera outbreak, Is
interesting, though he has reserved his most
important communication, like a lady's post
script for the end Of his epiStle. He points
out that it is not enough to quarantine all ar
rivals from Marseilles, aud that in fact, unless
more is done, such quarantine may be useless.
For emigrants for the United States seldom
leave ToulOn or Marseilles by sea for this
country. He SAYS that the steamers leaving
" Marseiles usually touch at one or more
Mediterranean stations before leaving
"their final port of departure, and
"emigrants usually go by rail to their
" ultimate port of departure to embark FOR
"the United States" This suggests an extern
sion of our quarantine arrangements. Mr..
Mason says: " 1t is therefore respectfully sug-
"gested that all vessels bringing immigrants
cor baggage to the United States from BOr-
"deaux, Iiayre, La Rochelle, or any other
" French port not yet declared infected should
:" be subjected upon their arrival to the most
careful sanitary regulations" This precau-
ton is obviously necessary, since without it
the quarantine against Toulon and Marseilles
is liable to become much worse than useless
Consul Mason gives a clear account of the
outbreak of the cholera, and from what he says
it appears probable that the Asiatic character
of the disease has been concusively established.
AT first there was much doubt about it. The
attacks were mild, and the ratio of recovcries
SO large as to warrant the hope that it might
only be sporadic cholera. But after time sew
eral cases occurred which bore all the marks of
the swift sudden and overwhelming Asatic
form of the disease. People were taken Ill and
died in four or five hours The disease broke
out with renewed viruence in places which had
previously escaped. There could no longer be
any doubt that the most dreadful and dread
ed form Of the scourge was present. Mr.
Mason contradicts much that has been said con-
corning the sanitary condition of Mar
settles According to him the city was as
clean as it could be made when the cholera was
introduced from Toulon. If this il true 1t may

PEEsERrING THE AUTOMOBILES

The importance Of preserving the Adirondack
forests is so sclf-cyident that every step taken
in relation to the matter will be watched with
interest by the public; and especially by pco-
pie in this city, who are naturally concerned i'm
a section which furnishes the sources of the
upper Hudson as well a. lovely region for
hunting fishing and recreation. Those who
read the ads and the views which were given
50 freely by gathering of lumbcrmen at Sara
toga recently, to the Commissioners on pre-
serving the Adirondacks must have been
amused at the conclusions reached.
Briefly, their theory appeared to be that TO
preserve forests you must cut them down.
They did not state it 50 bluntly as this. but
they made their argument appear plausible by
saving that they only selected the Iipr timber.
only cut about One-tenth Of the trees, and only
cut over tracts IN thirty years, thereby xiv
ing the forests merely beneficial pruning.
But the people of the State do not seem willing
to allow these gentlemen to 20 on pruning orr
matchless mountain forests according To their
own discretion. Nor does the latteI's statement
that fires, not axes, are the chief danger II the
forests. and that they are due to careless hunt
ers and guides only, strike experienced woods
men rs unbiased. Fires are "a scourge TO be
dreaded, but it is the lumberman who makes
the fires more likely 10 Occar, and causes them
to be more disastrous when they are started.
The first trees lumberman selects are the
pine, hemlock and spruce and no one knows
better than he that the branches and resinous
foliage Left after trimming the trunks make the
most dangerous food for forest fires. When
dried by sun and wind this brush will burn like
finder, and tia.h almost like gunpowder when a
spark or match is applied. Fire is almost GER
tain TO follow the track of the lumberman. If
it does not, the cutters OF railroad ties and yari
Gus hard woods follow the pioneers who Gull
the pine, spruce and hemlock, and then fire may
flush the destruction. The idea that the lum-
