DuNRAvEN's KICK.
Reviewed BY the New York Yacht
Climb.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-The last general
meeting of the New York Yacht club for
the year 1896 was held tonight. The cup
committee submitted it's report, all of
which, with the exception of the follow
ing regarding Dunraven's protest regard
ing the measurements, has already been
published:
ION Saturday. Sept 7, Lord Dunraven
communicated to the cup committee his
belief that Defender had sailed the day. S
race immersed three or four inches more
than when she was measured Lord Dun
raven stated that he believed the change
had been made without the knowledge of
Defenders owners, but it must be cor
rected or he would discontinue racing.
THE cup committee ordered a meas
urement On Sept. 8, the yachts were
marked as required by Lord Dunraven;
at the same time they were remeaSured
with the result of only one-eighth of an
! inch in low water mark increase of De
fender and one-sixteenth of an inch in
Valkyrie. AS the result varied the time
allowance only a second or two and in
no way affected the outcome of the races
it is not deemed necessary to give adj
ditional measurements
The following resolution was adopted
( That a cup be presented to the owners OF
Defender in recognition of their usual
defense Of the America cup in the re-
cent match and that a cup be also pre-
sented to George J. Gould as an expires

IRON MARKET sTRoNc

NEW YORK, Oct. 24-The Iron Age
says: The principal event of the last
week has been the recovery in Bes-
semer pig in the central west on mod
crate purchases by consumers. The
advance is represented by the contract
and $3.50 there now The movement
proves how sensitive the market is and
that the position of the furnaces is
strong.
Billets have not followed suit, but the
conclusion seems warranted that the
strength revealed in Bessemer pig
must find an echo in billets.
The reports Of our correspondents
concerning the volume of business done
in cars are somewhat conflicting. IT is
certain, however, that a number of or
ders of some consequence have been
placed and that others are pending.
Generally speaking, few orders of
magnitude are coming up in finished
iron and steel.

TEES AND HEALTH.

1t has been noted that the first set
tiers in heavily wooded sections of the
country have generally been healthy
despite their many privations. The
reason for this is, states Halls Journal
of Health, that trees and plants of all
kinds possess the power of absorbing
poisoned air from decaying vegetation
eVergreens and the smoke from burn
ing resinous woods are noted for the
relief they give to those suffering from
pulmonary diseases.
New heavily wooded countries, as al
ready noted, are the most healthy for
settlers, and they continue 50 for some
years, as only a small portion of the
forest can be cleared away each year.
After the forest is removed and SUM-
light is admitted, the soil fills rapidly
with vegetable mold. which decompoSeS
more rapidly than it can be absorbed
by the scant vegetation, and as a result
the atmosphere is rendered impure,
and malaria becomes a common COM
plant In view of these facts, people
are beginning to understand the value
of trees as disease-absorbing and
heaith-giving agents. Naturally this
leads to the question as to what trees
are best for protection against dis
ease.
On Long 1SldIlu anu III VIEW Jersey
there are localities surrounded and
hemmed in with pitch pines. which are
famed for their curative qualities in
consumption, and the pines are thus in
dicated as valuable surroundings in
pulmonary complaints. 1t would seem
reasonable to suppose that trees hav-
ing the largest leaves and the most of
them would be the best for this pur-
pose, as such trees would undoubtedly
have the most absorbing power. We
have seen the eucalyptus tree men,

Of the atmosphere.
