IN MEMORY OF THE DEAD.
The first committee to report this morning
was that ON condolences: 1t reported the death
Of one honorary member during the year, three
associate members and 10 active members.
Suitable resolutions were reported and were
adopted unanimously, the convention standing
in honor to the memories Of the departed men,
bers. President Lefens made q few appro-
pirate remarts, beautifully worded and touch
ing in sentiment. Reports on the literary
bureau, contingencies and restrictive legisla-
tion we're also read and adopted.
THE QUESTION OF REoRa AVIATION.
At the session yesterday the committee on
reorganization reported plan for organizing
the society On an entirely new basis. No recon-
on the table for action today. This morning
Mr.. A. Danenberg, chairman of the COM
mittee, moved that the whole matter
Of reorganization be referred to the
board of trustees who hold several meetings
through the year. They are to decide about
vention in the spring of 1891, when definite
action will be taken. This motion was carried
unanimously.
THE BREWERY AT THE EXPOSITION.
The question of the worlds fair was quite
puzzler for the convention to deal with. Tie
brewers intend to have large brewery in
active operation at the exposition, showing to
all who wish to see all the various methods of
brewing the popular beverage. Such an exhibit
ton is sure to be good advertisement for the
brewers business, but the question was as to who
should stand the necessary expense The dis
cussion was started by motion made by Mr..
Geo. G. Clausen Of New York that the matter
be left entirely in the hands of the board Of
trustees and that $4,000 be appropriated to de-
fray the preliminary expenses. This was
ried and the association will see to it that the
beer ID brewed.

THE CLOSING BUSINESS.
The press was gracefully recognized by Mr..
q. H. Rueter,. who said that while the doings
Of the association were largely for the interest

walls Of the hall were it not
