The ninth annual convention OF tho
Butchers National Protective Associa.
ton Of tho United States will convene
in tho butchcrs' hall, on Chuplinc
street, at 1880 this morning. This will
DO tho most important session since
the organization Of tho association in
1850, The national association Is COM
posed chiefly Of tho butchers. south and
west, while the eastern butchers, nota-
bly, In Connecticut, have Il state organ
ization, to which the other associations
afe subordinate. Tho associations in
other eastern states arc simply local
affairs. 1t 10 now proposed TO
consolidate tho Connecticut asso-
citation with the national association,
and Tor that reason n good delegation
has arrived from the state celebrated in
history, for its wooden nutinegs. There
is ITO questiun about the consolidation,
US both associations arc alive TO tho
fact, that something must be done for
self protection aud that quickly. 1t ia
thought this will prove tho nucleus for
a monster association, which shall cover
every section. 1t is also probable that
tho sccrut society methods Of tho Con-
necticut association will DO adopted.
Another important matter that will be
discussed and settled at this ses-
sion, is whether Wholesale butchers
shall be allowed membership. It
is a mootod question, and there arc
various opinions regarding tho matter.
1t would seem good policy to retain the
wholesalers. ior il they deyiatc from
the rules they could be disciplined us
the Grocers' Association did one of the
packers in Kansas City. Several asso-
Citations have already moved in tho
matter. The St. Louis association de-.
cidcd several months ago to exclude tho
wholesalers from membership.
THE FIRST DELEGATES
to arrive were those from Burlington,
Iowa. who came Sunday and were fol-
lowed by those from New York and
Connecticut who arrived yesterday
morning. At 5 o'clock last evening
members OF the Wheeling association
and delegates. headed by tho Opera
House band, marched from the Wind
sor Hotel, down Main street to tho rail-
way station to meet tho delegates cx-
pectcl from the west at 5:25. This
train brought delegates from Missouri,
Ohio. Indiana and Texas. There are
many more yet to arrive and President
D, j. shaw aud delegation from Fort
Wayne. Ind, will not arrive until 1910
this morning.
Last evening the work OF decorating
business houses about town in honor OF
the visitors began. and it looks as il by
this morning Wheeling will present as
brilliant an appearance Us on the occa.
sion OF the famous Big Reunion in 1857,
Some OF the decorations already up are
beautiful.
