The members of the association Were enjoying themselves in the lobby of the hotel. When a few of the members had assembied President Studebaker sent some of them back to the lobby of the hotel “to stir up the patriotism of the members, and have them come up and attend to the business they metfor. I take comfort,” he added, “from the statement made by the reporter here that all conventions do this way, and the members do not come in until after the hour of the meeting.” The committee sent down stairs did very effective work. In a few minutes the Members, having had thelr patriotism “stirred up,” began to stream into the hall, ‘A REPRIMAND. ‘When President Studebaker called the meeting to order, about half-past 10, he reprimanded the association a little for its tardiness, and suggested that he thought they had more interest in the annual dinner than in the business before the convention.

THE TECHNICAL SCHOOL. ‘The report of the committee on technical educa- tion was laid over until to-morrow morning and Put first on the order of business for to-morrow. The report says that the committee felt that the scool for carriage draughtsmen and mechan- Jescarried on tn New York under the ausploes of the association has now safely passed through the experimental and preparatory period, that it 43 already filing to a considerable extent the de- sign of its originators, and that the association may uow count upon a steady increase of tangible Tesults from its educational fnfluence, During the last season thirty puptls were en- rolled In the evening classes and one hundred and forty In the corresponding classes. ‘Twenty-five of the Lormer pupils of the school have been pro- moted to positions of foremen, draughtsmen, oF superintendents, or have become proprietors or members of firms engaged in carriage building. ‘There are now twenty-three evening pupils aud sixty-three corresponding puptis on the roll. The comiittee 1s engaged in preparing a serles of prize offers, aggreguting $250, cor essays on “How to plan, furnish and stock a modern carrtay factory. ‘The report says the alta of the trade- school isnot venevolence, Helping the young men is oniy a secondary object. its design 1s to pro- duce more competent mechanics, In conclusion the committee sald: “In spite of some discouraging conditions that now surround the carriage trad’ in tuls couniry, Jucluding the lack of aby system of apprenuceship or regular shop training, tardiness on the part of trade sroleties in lending (helt. ald to supply the thin- Ing ranks of experienced mechanics liom conditions of trade that arise from. the ook.

Flanders, of Merrimac, Mass.; fourta, to Herman Durholz For best three panels, J. C. Scott, of Freeport, I, The award to Mr. Thomas was held tn abeyance because it was stated that Mr. Thomas ‘Was not an employe, but « member of the assoct- toa, Which Was COhLrary vo the conditions of the offers. ‘The committee expressed regret that there were exhibits offered in but four of Ube Uhirteen classes in which prizes were offered. There was a general discussion us to why there was not more interest taken tm the competition by the workmen. Some of the members suggested that the workmen should be given time and material by their employers. President Studebaker offered an additional prize of $50, which was accepted. Various suggestions in the report of the comunittee were referred to the executlve committee. CARRIAGE TRACKS. ‘The committee appointed yesterday in regard to the suggestion by the execulive committee con- cerning carriage tracks, reported that it bad found & great variety of widths of track in the country. ‘The committee, while feeling that one track we be sufficient for ail purposes, belleve that manu- facturers will more readily come to a uniform prac- tice with two standards of track, and the commit- tee therefore earnestly recommend ‘the of @ track of 4 feet 8 inches and a track of 5 feet 2 inches as the standards, and that the members of the ascoclation agree ‘aot to build on any other Mr, Haydock urged that there shouid be but one track adopted, as that was enough tor this coun- [Pes tlre adoption of the 4 feet 8 aches Another member thought they would have to make carriages to meet the Wishes of thelr custo- mers.

In the discussion, of the desirability of having one or two stal tracks, the fact of the tendency of street-rallway com to adopt 4 feet 8 inches as a standard track, was brought forward in favor of the 4 feet 8 standard. Mr, Firestone standard for bugyies and light venicles be feet 8 Inches: for coaches and wide vehicles i the varlety of tracks now in use, and the fact that the sirevt raflways are reducing vo one standart of 4 feet 835 and that “ite dchenrs substitute adopted, 4 was A offered Firestone, Seen aso ac a ce Mr. be gen said taec ooterts his firm was laws, calling attention to of such a far, obaerucing @ free in ge of commodl. remogy the inconsistency of laws relating to ‘that made a citizen of the country comin, Bees fer pastnens puspisee ee eee ees unless popes ex.

Mr. Franklin Murphy, from the committee to consider the advisability of establishing a bureau of statistics relative to the carriage and accessory trades, reported in favor of such a project, and recommending the tment of a committee of five to be charged with the organization of a de- partifent of statistics. ‘The report and its recom- mendation were adopted.

Mr. Emerson objected to the resolution, saying that there were only a dozen or fifteen members accompanied by thelr wives, and the ladies would be lonely. He questioned also the propriety of ‘suck: a thing, and also sald very few alles desired to attend. Mr. Firestone, Mr. Hooker, and others spoke of the difficulty in ‘providing for the num- bers already in view without counting on the ladies, One member said ladies did not lke to attend course dinners. It became very tiresome to After some discussion Mr. Mulholland’s motion ‘was laid on the tabie, THE CONSTITUTIONAL CENTENNIAL APPROVED. Mr. C, D. Firestone,ot Columbus, Ohio, referred to the movement begin here in Washington with a view to holding a constitutional centennial here in 1889 and a world’s exposition in 1892 to cele- brate the four hundreth anniversary of the «is- covery of America. Different national organiza Uonshad passed resolutions favoring the holding Of these celebrations, He therefore offered resolu- tons as follows: Whereas it 18 proposed to hold at the national ¢apital in 1880 an American inter-republic cele- bration in honor of the centennial of the Constitu- tion, and in 1892 an Inter-American and world’s exposition in honor of the quadri-centenntal of the Aiscovery of America by Christopher Columbus; Whereas it 1s also pro to estabilsh at ine national capital in 1892 a permanent exposition of the arts and industries ofthe three Americas: Resolved, BY the Carriage Butlers’ National As- sociation, That we favor this movement as Umnely 4n conception, most patriotic in sentiment, and of great practical importance to the manufacturers Of the United States In opening up new American markets for our surplus products, and stimulating more intimate relations between the several sister nations of the western hemisphere, Resolved, ‘That coples of these resolutions be sent to the President of the United States, the President of the Senate, and the Speaker of’ the House of Representatives, Mr. Firestone sald they all knew the dimculties they experienced in getting their goods Into these American countries, and he favored any move- Ment that Would unlock the doors of commerce. Mtr. Firestone introduced Mr. Alex. D. Anderson, secretary of the board of promotion of the pro- Posed celebrations, who spoke at some length. He Said that but one-fth of one per cent of the pro- uct of the carriage-bullders now found their way tothe twenty American countries south of the United States. It Was the fundamental idea of this whole project he gaid to open tals trade. ‘The resolutions offered by Mr. Firestone were adopted, and the convention adjourned till to- morrow. the injustice of MEMBERS PRESENT.

Among the layers who have watched the pro- ceedings in the Virginia habeas Corpus cases the impression seems to prevail that the Supreme Court will sustain Judge Bond, The cases involv- ing the Virginia debt question which came before the court were decided by a vote of five to four, Since then one of the Judges has died, and that would leave the court upon the same question ue—4 tod. ‘The idea ts that if the four fi iges who sustained the Virginia debt laws against the bondholders had stood together the conclusion of the court would have been to defer hearing the Ing case ‘until after the ay tment of the ninth judge, so as to avoid a tie; but that one or more the for. mer minority’ must have changed "his Views, or at least have decided to sustain Judge Bond, and hence the fixing of the hearing in November, before the vacancy in the bench can be filled. "Had the conference of the Judges indicated tie, the natural conclusion 1s ‘Unat the hearing would have been postponed until after the filling of the vacancy, as to it sooner with @ known te exisfing would eventuate in going Over the whole case again, SAFETY IN THEATERS, Report of the Fire-Escape Commission. ‘The fire-escape commission have submitted to Engineer Commissioner Ludlow the following re- port of their examination of the theaters with ref- suggestions made by the grand jury, leaving all other portions of their requirements to be en- forced by the courts, a proposed by the United States attorney for the District of Columbia, at Albaugh’s Opera, Howe we designed fety of the: Fe ae z 5 Ey 3; fe drat il I r | i i Ei § Ly | aE beke i F ; I ze 4 l é i i ql i i ‘4 i [ i | i ft ii FE i : D F t } i Uy & li § i i ; ii i i ite ul He Pa il it & fli ‘There been three : cases of yellow fever THE NEW LICENSE YEAR. ‘The Commissioners Announce Rules to Reguiate the Issuing of Liquor Licenses, The District Commissioners have adopted the following regulations for the issuance of licenses tosell liquor, and announced that all licenses for the year 1887-8 must be issued in conformity thereto: The term of all Mcenses for sale of spirituous \quors expires on the 31st day of October, and the approval of such licenses must precede the open- Ang of the recited places for the sale or disposal of any intoxicating drinks, and must precede the continuance of sueh places theretofore licensed.
