Arrangements have been made for hold- ing a meeting of the board of trade in the hall of the Builders’ Exchange on Wednes- day evenirg next at 7:30 o'clock. The principal business to be considered will be reports from the committees on insurance, commerce and public buildings; on the subjects, respectively, of the needs of our fire department, the establishment of manu- facturing plants and development of manu- factures in the District of Columbia, and the requirements of the office of the inspec- tor of buildings. Other matters of interest and importance to the District will also probably be brought before the board. Opportunity will be given those members who desire to be heard on these matters for an expression of their views. It is ex- pected that there will be a large attendance at this meeting, especially as it is the first to be held by the board after the vacation season, and in a measure preliminary to the atnual meeting which will occur on the 12th of next month. There is a feeling among the members of the board of trade that the field of work before the organization is a wide one, in which much good can be accomplished for the interests of the Dis- trict by the united action of a body rep- resentative of all classes, such as the board of trade. Its membership is now about 450, and is constantly increasing. ’ ANOTHER COMME Proposed to Raise Salary and Rank of Secre(ary to Board.
