With the demand is coupled Mpgtoance that the Press club is a HiihrOpic institution, which takes • of Its members in sickness and bur* ie# them when dead. This is a humiliating reflection on .the members of the newspaper profession. The great majority of them and the most reputable of them do not belong to the Press club at all. They are self respecting and make their own provi sion for sickness and death, or, at all events, do not appeal to the general pub lic, directly or indirectly, to do those things which every real man is expected to do for himself. There is a growing knowledge among the public that the Press club idea, not only in New York, but elsewhere, is strongly worked, and for their own ad vantage. by men who either are not newspaper men at all or whose connec tion with the press is very slight.

This structure is Jbdng built on a lot 122 by 67 feet in size and at a place where a rock bottom can not be reached without passing through quicksand full of water. Fifteen of these caissons will be employed, four circular •nd 11 rectangular. The latter vary in size from 25* feet in length by 21} feet In width to is feet square. The largest of the circular caissons is 15 feet in di ameter and the smallest 10 feet. They we made by riveting together steel plates, angle bars and beams into boxes from 8 to 10 feet in depth, with a top thoroughly braced with steel beams to support the superposed loads. All the rivets on the sides have countersunk holes on thjfe outside so as to diminish the frfctipn v0&ch arises when the caissons axe sinking. All the openings in the top are carried np through the masonry which is laid on top of the caisson and are provided with the same valves that are used in subaqueous works. It is stated that these caissons will be the first ewer employed in building construction.
