The governor's address was cordially
received, in spite of the feeling of the

that the proposal should not be ac

resolutions were adopted declaring It
the sense of the association that the
proposal be rejected and that a special
railroad or freight rate commission
be created to take these duties from

a violent electric storm broke out, and
for one hour and 14 minutes the blan

was not the usual display of St. Elmo

While the vessel was bombarded by
