by the Bar Association of this city and the clubs, therefore I move the thanks of this Association are due to the Bar Association of the City of New York for their kindness in tendering to us the use of this splendid building and for the very splendid reception they tendered to us last night. Also that the thanks of this Association are due especially to the Century Association, the City Club of New York, the Union League Club for their hospitality in giving us the privilege of their clubs. Adelbert Moot, of Buffalo: I take great pleasure in seconding that motion. The motion was duly carried. The Secretary: The Committee on Admissions report favorably on the names of all the gentlemen who have been nominated for membership, and I move they be elected. The motion was duly seconded and carried. The Secretary: I move that the following committees be continued: Committee on Salaries of Federal Judges, to memorialize the Legislature on the subject of statue to Chancellor Kent, on International Arbitration, Corporation Law, Legal Ethics, On Arrest and Imprisonment in Civil Actions, Medical Expert Testimony, Amendment of the Election Law in regard to Judicial Candidates, On Contingent Fees, on Workmen's Compensation Act, Proposed Legislation relative to the commitment and discharge of the Criminal Insane, on Recommendations of the American Bar Association relative to Legal Education, on Earlier Delivery of the Session Laws, on Legal Publications, on Revision of Civil Practice, on Amendment of Procedure in the Federal Courts. The motion was duly seconded and carried. The President: I will renew the warning to you all to be prompt to-night at the dinner. There was a dinner here some little time ago which the President of the United States came from Washington to attend where he was kept waiting to the very great discredit of the people, and we certainly must not repeat it. The next annual meeting place will be fixed by the executive committee. Adjourned sine die. FREDERICK E. WADHAMS, Secretary. |
