YACHTING. Tho Phoenix Register says that Mr. A. J. Henley of (lint plueo has the contract for -building two stoam yachts for a gentleman In Syracuse this season. One will bo com¬ menced at once and will be pushed to com- phHlDn as rapidly as possible und will be takw to New Yoi k. At a meeting of the Eastern Yacht Club, of Boston, Jay Gould and Washington E, Connor wero rejected as members. This has caused much talk in club circles. In regard to this action Mr. Connor said to-day: "I believe it Is true that we hnvc been black¬ balled, but we did not know that our names were up for election. Mr. Gould's' son, George, who was elected to-day, sent u lettei to the club withdrawing from membership. It Is not the custom among gentlemen to allow a rejection by a club to become a pub¬ lic matter. I never.knew of more than one other case of this ltind, that "was the black¬ balling of Mr. Keene at the Union club. I suppose the action of the Eastern Yacht club is due hugely to the Influence of some of the members ot the New York club, who aroulso membeies of ilint-ulub. 1 do nut know why the New York t'lqb ulio.ild be jealous ot oui now ilub, for It allows no privileges to steam yachts, and out club is Intended for nothing else. We expect to have about nrty steam yachts enrolled In the American club In u little while. It is the first club for steani yachts ever established, I understand, either here or in Kuiope. In fact It lias not been possible un'll recently to establish u i-lub because of the small.....n- her of steam yachts. Hy anc by, as oui i-lub inu eases, i expect that houses will Im bnlli ncseveral places along the eoast, but that is something to look torwaid to. The club is young yet."
