Adopted Resolution! on the Death of
President McKinley, and It "Wfte
Decided to Cloee All of the Placet
of Businein in the Crty on Thurs
day In Honor of the Funeral of the
Martyred President Lunch Was
Served After the Meeting,
As a mark of respect to the dead
president the Hoard of Trade did not
transact any regular business at Us
meeting at noon yesterelay. Tht room
was suitably decorated.
It was the first meeting since June
and was called to order by A. W.
Dickson In tho absence of the presi
dent, J. A. Lansing. After the moot
ing had been formally opened, Mr.
Dickson arose nnd said:
"This Is a board of trade, but at
the same time a gathering of men nnd
citizens. In our lives we have our In
dividual troubles and our Individual
losses nnd burdens which we must
bear. Today we suffer a great loss as
a community. We nto part of tho
groat American family which has lost
the head ami the father who was the
guiding spirit or this great body of
Ametlean citizens. It seems lo me
that this Is not tho time to consider
the ordinary business affairs of life,
nnd (hat the thing for us to do is to
solemnly adjourn."
The acting president suggested that
If any of the members had a resolu
tion on the death of the president to
offer he would enteitain tt. The fol
lowing was offered and read by See
rctary Atberton, and was adopted by
a rising vote:

It. J. Foster thought tho board ought
to adopt strong resolutions calling
upon eongtess to emu t such laws as
will make It Impossible for anarchy
to thrive In this country, but It was
decided to let this matter lay over
until tho next mooting.
.Mr. Dickson said that it would bo
proper for the members of tho board
to close their places of business on
Thursday, the day of the president's
funeral. lie had been Informed by
Recorder Connell that a proclamation
would be Issued by him asking the
citizens of tho city to observe the day
when the president Is laid to rest ns
one of general mourning. The follow
ing losolutlon was read and unani
mously adopted:
rtmohed, Tlmt In iew of the leiordrt's procla
mation It Is undeistood that the mem'iiVrs of this
rcuilatlnn will suspend all business operations
on 'lhuri.day, Sept. pi, the day af the fnnetul of
the lite President McKinley.
The board then adjourned, after
which lunch was served to the mem
bers by Caterer Hanley.
