/ Meeting of the Butler Board o
Trade. Friday evening, Feb. end
1883:
"There was \ tumult in the city,
In that quaint old Quaker town;
| And the streets were ife with people
Pacing restless up and down."
The call for a meeting OF the
members of the Butler Board OF
Trade, was. with possibly one OF
| two exceptions, responded to by
every member and share holder in
| terested in operation. OF 'tClub I3,
Fund W. and other cooperative
combinations of Chicago.
The board ridged in ITS rules, ex-
cludes all who are not members, as
is the case with all men who make
or loose fortunes in a short time,
who control capital to an unlimited
extent, who bull, or beat the market
at pleasure, these are the men who
all, times repel the most subtle and
,nsinuating interviewer. judging
from the huctuating and unsteady
condition OF the market, and from
the wild and care-worn faces of
some of our heaviest operators tor
the past few days our reporter pre-
dicted that some business of unusual
importance was to be brought be-
fore the Board and by some scheme,
known only to himself, (he was
brought up in Ch,cago,) succeeded
IN being one of the mighty throng
that filed the largest room on that
occasion. No time was lost but
with the promptness and alacritv
that characterixes the true business
man, the chairman called the house
to order and stated the object OF the
meeting.
The secretary being called upon,
read the following kilograms. :.
