CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
WORK OF RAISING FUNDS FOR CHI
CAGO EXHIBIT BEGUN.
Additions to the Permanent Exhibit of
the Chamber-Meeting of the Ladies'
Annex-New Members Elected.

The finance committee of the Chicago
exhibit organization met yesterday
morning at the Chamber of Commerce.
They decided to begin the work of rails
ing funds immediately and to report
progress at the regular meeting of the
chamber, which takes place on Wednes-
day OF this week. H. G. Wilmer re-
signed from the committee on account of
ill-health and J. s. Slosson was elected
in his place.
The regular meeting of the chamber
on Wednesday will probably be largely
attended as important business is to
come up. Besides the hearing of the
report of the finance committee on the
Chicago exhibit the question OF incOr-
poration will be discussed. 1t has been
suggested that the chamber should in
vest in some real estate with the plan of
ultimately erecting building. To. do
this it is necessary that the organization
should incorporate.
Invitations were sent out yesterday to
the members of the chamber to be pres
ent at the reception to the visiting doc
tors which will take place next Wednes-
day from II to l.
