TIE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

4 fair degree of progress was made
Friday evening in the matter of forming
q Chamber of Commerce. There were
120 signers TO the call and about seventy
five citizens were in attendance at the
initial meeting. 1t was resolved to form
the body at once. and TO that end the
Mayor was asked to name a committee
to submit plans at future meeting, when
they will be discussed and an organiza-
ton effected
Now let it be understood that there
must be no delay in this matter. The
next meeting should be held this week,
and it should be such large and repre-
sentative one that the chamber can be
formed at that time, and its officers set to
work at once.
When the RECoRD-UNIoN suggested
the erection of Cham ber of Commerce
it was deeply impressed with the neces-
sity for sucif formation at this time, and
that it would be suicidal to put it off for
some lnQenn1te GATE III the unknown fu-
ture. Years ago the RECoRD-UNIoN ad-
vocated such formation as is now under
way, but Board of Trade took the place
of that idea. That body was restricted
in purpose and powers, and finally fell
into decay. When we took up the matter
some weeks ago the suggestion was
thrown out that the new body should be
OF broad purpose and have wider scheme
of activity than mere business organi-
Zation; 1t should take into its member
ship any good, intelligent citizen willing
to unite with it and having the interests
of the city at heart.
It is to be hoped that the body now to
be formed will be such one. What we

EXhIbit.

The One Intended for the Atlanta
Exhibit.
Secretary Filcher, of the State Board of
Trade, has sent circu ular letter to all the
Boards of Supervisors throughout the
State, notifying them of the postponement
of the convention. In his letter Mr..
Fiicher says:
The exhibit we have here could not be
gotten together for less than S75, 900. Afte-
being thoroughly replenished, and with
such additions as the at1iliating counties
can make, and as other counties will con-
tribute, we will be able at a nominal cost
OF from 81 900 to 10000 to make display
at Atlanta equal in variety and attractive
ness, II not quite so extensive in quantity,
as that made at the Worlds Fair, and
which cost the State and counties in the
aggregate at least $780, 000.'
so far no decision has been reached as
to the location OF the exhibition at At
lanta. The board has received two offers,
one from the management and the other
from private sources At the last meet
ing of The board Mr. Mills. during the
course of his remarks, stated that the ex-
hlblt would not be made in a private
building, nor one built by private funds.
Until the money for the exhibit has been
raised no decision will be made by the
board,
Briefly stated the position is this: Mrs.
Dooley OF Los Angeles has secured con-
cessiou from the Atlanta management
granting her the privilege of erecting a
California building. In this space is
being offered at the same price as is
charged by the management in other
buildings. From Mrs. Dooley came the
oifer OF free space in the California build
ing, but the matter has not yet been
passed upon.

STILL MISSING.

No Further Tidings of Charley Brook
way-Another Letter.
Charles z. Brockway, who disappeared
SO mysteriously on Friday last, is still
missing. Public opinion appears to be
about equally divided on the point as to
whether or not the young man committed
suicide, as threatened in the letters he
sent to his mother and attorneys, or
whether he simply flew to some other
locality to avoid his creditors.
Besides the letter written to his mother,
in which he stated that he intended to
drown himself, Brockway also wrote a
letter to Alvin J. Bruner, the attorney,
which confirms the suspicion Of some of
his friends that he committed suicide.
BrOckwRy was to have called at Arm
strong 81 Burners office Friday to confer
with them on some private business, but
instead of doing so sent the following
letter;
SACRAMENTO, July ii, 1895.
Mr.. B2Nuer: [ am tired of living.
will take my life tonight. Will you look
after my mothers and sisters business
for me, as [ left my will with my mother?
Z. Il. BROCKWAY.
The last known of Brockway in this
city was on Friday evening. when he is
said to have been seen leaning against
one Of the cars of the train about to leave
for San Francisco.
Brockway owed a number of persons
considerable sums of money in addition
TO the mortgage on his portion of the
ranch where the family reside, and while
many think he has really committed sui
eide those more intimately acquainted
with him believe he will soon be heard
from elsewhere.
He had been, it is said, a constant
patron of the places whore pools are sold
on races in San Francisco and the East,
which races. it is generally understood,
are controlled by rings of bookmakers,
who are waxing rich off the dupes who
daily patronize thom and blow in" their
own and other peoples money.
