I'VE want every reputable merchant

said Mr.. Strasburger yesterday. The
small merchant is just as welcome as the
large trader, and we expect toamake the
association equally. beneficial to all. as
well as to the general public.
The association will ultimately make
Washington an undesirable place for the
dishonest business man. 1t will actively
oppose itself to those practicing iliegiti-
mate trade methods, protecting both the
consumer and the merchant doing an
honorable business"
The association plans establish a credit
bureau sometime in the fall, 1t will be
the duty of the bureau to obtain the
freest employment of credit in the Dis
trict, compatible with safety to the mer-
chants.
Mr.. Strasburger believes that many
present abuses of credit can be done
away with to an efficiently admins
tered credit bureau. He says that not
only would II be easier for the reputable
customer to procure credit in times of
need. but that credit risks by the mer-
chants would be minimized.
Board Membership Increased.
The board of governors is to be in
creased from twelve to twenty-five. each
member will. as far as possible, be
chosen to represent a trade branch, and
will appoint a committee OF merchants
of his branch to consider all measures
affecting their line of business. Recon-
mendations Of these committees will be
brought before the whole board for con-
sideration and action.

CLUB MEMBERS
As 'TRADtsMEN'
Metropolitan Is Shocked to Hear
that Some Are Interested
in Saloon.
JACK" BIDDLE IS SECRETARY

The Philadelphia North American
prints the following:
Washington society and the member
ship of the exclusive Metropolitan
Club have been seething with surprise
and Indignation for the last week. and
the end is not yet in view. The cause
is the establishment of a saloon in the
new Riggs Building, Fifteenth and G
Streets. home of Chase's New Theater.
by a corporation known as the Metro
politan Company. and the incorporators
OF which are said to be members of the
Metropolitan Club and of Washington's
most exclusive social circles.
Ohicials Of the Metropolitan Club are
said to have taken cognizance of the
venture into the liquor business on the
part of club members. and a far-reach-
ing explosion is expected when the
board of governors of the organization
holds It's next meeting.
John NJ. Biddle. better known In club
dom as Jack" Biddle. relative of the
wealthy Biddle family OF Philadelphia,
is secretary of the company which
operates the saloon. He is a member
Of the Metropolitan Club. and also is
steward at a salary OF $1,000 a Year.
He is the first gentleman steward" the
Metropolitan or any other Washington
CluD mas ever Hdu
Two other names which have been con-
nected with the new saloon company
are those OF pron1nent Washlngtonians.
Club Exclusive One.
Mr.. BiddIe is frank to admit that he
is secretary of the company controlling
the saloon, but refuses to say who the
other incorporators or stockholders are.
This Is a private concern. and ] do
not feel at liberty to discuss its AFFAIRS"
said Mr.. Biddle. 'I don't think 1t is
anybody's business who is connected
with the company" the clubman added.
The unwillingness of Mr.. Biddle to dis
cuss the company's affairs is not shared
by members OF Washington clubs or by
the few society people who are in the
city.
That a member of the Metropolitan
Club. the most exclusive in the United
States, the club that refused admission
to Senator Scott of West Virginia and
Martin Littleton. Representative in Con-
gress from New York, and other men
whose achievements or wealth have
placed them before the public eye.
should "descend'-yes; that is the word
used in the drawing rooms-should de
scend' to the keeping of a saloon is al
most more than they can believe.
it is said their chagrin and wrath know
no bounds. although a few of the young
er men have taken it all as a Joke.
