MEETING OF THE BOARD OF TRADE.
"A regular meeting of the Board OF
Trade was held at their rooms on King
street. last night, the President, F. A.
Reed, occupying the chair.
The special business before the board,
the President stated, would be an
nounced by Mr.. NJ. B. Harlow.
That gentleman then arose and said
it was the purpose of the board at this
meeting to appoint delegates to con-
vention of boards of trade to be held in
Washington on the 10Th instant. The
Alexandria Board of Trade, as we'll as
all others throughout the country, had
received circulars from the New York
board inviting cooperation in the hold
ing of convention at that time for the
purpose of urging Congress to repeal
nnconditionally the purchasing clause
of the Sherman silver bill.
The President read the circular con-
tanning the objects of the proposed con-
vention.
Mr.. Harlow moved that three dele
gates be appointed to represent the
business men of this city in the conven-
ton.
The motion prevailed, and the Presi-
dent, Messrs. M. B. Harlow and j.
W. May were selected.
Mr. Harlow subsequently moved that
the two Senator'S from this State be re-
queSted to vote for the repeal of the
purchasing clause, and that they be Of
fcially notified by the secretary of the
board that it is the unanimous wish of
the business men of Alexandria that the
clause be Immediately repealed.
This motion also prevailed.
Mr.. James F. Muir suggested that
should either of these gentlemen NAM
ed find it impossible for them to act as
delegates that the chairman be en-
powered to fill the vacancy by appoint
ing any other member Of the board.
This proposition was agreed to and
atan early hour the board adjourned.
