Tbo Board of Trado held a meeting In tbo
Open-Board Boom yesterday afternoon, to con
sider tbo report of the Oommlttoo in the Hough
Elevator ease. President Culver called the moot
ing to order, and briefly stated Its object;
It vras moved to dlsponeo with tbo reading of
the report, and: some discussion; ensued, which
ondofl .when tbo motion prevailed. : ; i,
Col. Hough said that as they wore tbo prluol
pal parties interested it' was justice to'them and'
the trade that 1 the report should bo redd; ‘ Ho
bad asked forth* Oommlttoo ■of Investigation, l
and that Oommlttoo bad produced voluminous
testimony,-which could not be rcad, but tbo re
port, Bhonid. bo.r-, If .they were guilty, he was

Butlbtiro Wo'ro many'defects in the lair, arid
they might be remedied.- - Ho desired :i to f
have -tbo report : rood, and .bo. 'hoped
to have time for defense afterward. If ..he did
wrong, every warehouseman in the city was-jn
thdwrong. They wore , all in the same boat,
and if ouo was” wrong all wore’wrong. .They
Should moot question.' Their name
was made the- figure-bead; and -bo proposed to 1
show’ tbo tall of It. If they wore to be.olsvatod
off. the Board of Trsdp, othersAVould have to bo
elevated .with , thorn.-, -They should not be
tabooed alduo. t (
’■ Objection was mado that Mr. B. M. Hough
was not a mombor, and bad no right to talk; J * 1
Ho Said bo would appear as attorney for his
brother. Ho had a complimentary ticket from
tboßoard.*-* , • t ....
Mr. H.‘ 0. Bapney offered the following} ‘
’ liaolved, That tbo Secretary la hereby instructed to
forward to tbo Btato Hoard of Hall road and Warehouse
Commissioners a copy of the report of Messrs. Wright,
Warren, and Priestly, With a request that itiracolve
such attention, and bo mado thobaals of such action,

’ Mr. llanuoy then eaidtho Board of Trade had
nothing to do with the case, liwas taken brthd
Statb out'of the jurisdiction of ’ the Board, and
tbo whole matter should W remitted to the Bail
road and Warehouse Commissioners.
Mr. HoUgh began to spoaluigaln, whouho waa
Interrupted by a gentleman who remarked that
Mr. Hough was not on trial. } ;■'
. Mr. Gurney. moved as a substitute, that tho
testimony and report he printed and submitted
to the members of tho Board. 1
Tho President said, that the Messrs. Hough
wore hot on trial boforo~tbe Board. They had
not Won arraigned before the Board. r
Mr. Gurney believed, tbo members of tho
Board wore, a jury, and .they could not ,be ex*
peoted to arrive at a conclusion - until they bad
road the evidence. .' >
Mr. Itannoy moved to lay Sir. Gurney’s substi
tute oh tho table, because the Board of Trade
had nothing to do with the testimony. It Wfts
taken for-tho benefit of tbo State Board.
Mr. B. M. Hough said every member of tho
Board of Trade was'-interested -In' hoaring-the
testimony, and, if irregularities were being prao?
ticod, they should.bo corrected. If ho bud done
wrong, as Charged, ho was liable to go to the
BtatokiPrison.; r, • ■■:< .
* Mr. Banney said tho Board of Trade .could not
send him there, but the State Board could.
.. Mr. Hough said it mado no 'difference. The
Board of Trade was certainly interested in cor
recting bad practices.

the occasional sums sent to make purchases on
commission, and all the remittances lor the

all is sent. On the letters asking for samples,
merely, the profits amount to something worth i

of the multitudes of circulars Issued fall into,

less faith In anything which is set up in type and,

" A mohtlr B tbdtongh description of the

of iState. and Monroe streets, won published id 1
those,, columns. .Tho .building waa not finished
then, but was nearing completion as fast as so
colossal an enterprise ootild. A rnbnth has made
a great difforenbe.’All tbb dluihg-rooms are com
ploted’cxcopt the main room. The house is dally
accommodating nearly 200 persons. About 170
rooms are finished and-occupied, tbo demand.,
for permanent quarters for tbp ; winter belng ;
greater than the fordo of Upholsterers ban sup-,
jptjf) Even i! ‘tiio’'work dobs sbemtb progress'
slowly, one cannot' grudge time,'in consideration
of tho luxury it produces. 1 Pot instance, nearly'
every room on tbo first’ floor is carpeted in tbo
most delicate shades of - Axminstor, while on tho.
two-- first floors nothing loss , costly than
Wilton can bo found., ‘Tbo private
parlors, the suites, the public parlors,'
ard carpeted, furnished) and' lighted in a man
ner worthy of tbb most luxurious European pal-'
too.- The furniture was expressly deslgdod- for.
tho house, and the visitor cannot but. bo - struck
with thedelicacy and of every piece.,
The bedsteads are of the richest make, Veneered
With panels of Efbhdh'wAliiUi and dtbof choldb
and'oxpeneivd woods; Thb tipper rooms are fur
bished with btjual generosity, except that Brua
bolb take the place of Hoquotto&nd Axminstor on
thoilodrs. Tho rooms are all largo and so art
fully arranged that there is.not one dark one in
the.building..
A reporter yesterday interviewed Mr. Palmer
on tho subject of hotel rates.
“How do you find your system of graduated
prices suits the public at present ?’* asked the re
porter.
“We have, not tried it yet," replied Mr.
Palmer. V You see that wo are not yet ready
for business, only a portion of tho house being
teuantabloi Things being in the condition they
are, it would not do to ask full, rates.. Wo .aro
therefore asking our guests to put up with many
inconveniences, and charging them minimum
rates, $3 a day* I ’, . . .
ybii going to continue ibis price
long? - : -
• Mr. Palmpr-rNo. By. Christmas oyorytblng
will be comfortably arranged, and wo shall try
our graduated scale, $5 for the first floor,* $4.00
for.the second. $4 for the third, and so on* .
Reporter-Then those exquisite suites on tho
first'floor are being occupied for $3 a day ?
' Mr.-Palmor—Yes. and it Is really of groat ser
vice to ns to have them occupied, rWo got tho
hotel gradually organized, and shall lack noth

HYDE PARK’S PAKKi
It In Being Gradually Washed Avray
by the Action of tlio Wave* of Lalco
lllchiffan.. . i
Hyde Park, the independent principality near
which Chicago Is situated, was once tho proud
possessor of a fine' lake-shore park. It was tho
delight’of tho Hydo-Parkers themselves and a
thing of beauty "to all visitors; From that
park arose .the‘prosperity of the village, and
tho rise in the value of its real estate. Here tho
( wary Eastern capitalist saw the locality which
would attract to itself tho wealth, beauty, and
culture' 6t 'the monoy-making mart which con
taminated the northern borders of tbo village,
and straightway 1 bo Invested in the surrounding
acres on the strength of tbe porpetual continu
ance of -that park. ■ It was to bo used for p&rk
purposes forever, and no sacrilegious hand should
bb permitted to erect any 'species of building to
'deprive the villagers of their pot beauty-spot.
The artless maidens ! arid spoony lovers of all
time, 1 even-unto'the thirtieth, aud fortieth
.generation, , should, there wander on moon
light . - evenings, and its umbrageous
trees , 'should bo the resting-places of
' merry birds'until the crack of doom. Hore, too,
thb youthful spirits of Hyde Park babes and
children should rejoice in having such a play
ground, and the glow of health should, rest for
ever on their ebooks as they daily wandered
with their nurses through .tho grove and along
the beach. ' All this was to bo in jierpeluo, for It
was so nominated-in the' bond- conveying’ this
•land to i the village. • . ,
But behold, while men slept, a novor
tlring thief was - busily 'engaged in steal
ing away this park. Sometimes .ho took
omy a few oubio yards a day, and again ho would
■carry off half an acre, in the s&mo timo. Tho
Board .of - Trustees have been - ■ oarofnl
to lay out many.. unnecessary streets;
they have built-•- sewers--• by tho - mile
.through streets where there were not a dozen
housofl‘alofng tbo‘wholo dißtanoo; they bavo
. condemned land to widon streets which have al
ways been deserted .wastes-hitherto, and which
are -practically of no Use for any purpose what
■ ever; they have ordered costly water-works aud
mains through uninhabited streets; they have
kept up- -a-considerable body of useless police
■to annoy people by uncalled-for and ridiculous
interference, aud for all these valuable evidences
:of incapacity they. have taxed property-owners
.at excessive rates. Yet it bos never apparently
occurred to "one" of them that a park
•of •• * Immense value to ' tho village,
even in a pecuniary, point of
view, was . washing Into tho ' lake ' at
such a rate as to leave, at the present time, only
ca mere strip along ; the beach. It would not be
, saying too much to estimate ibe value of tbo
land washed away'during this last summer
alone at $60,000, and, unless some stops are tak-
L on to give protection, the whole of this park,
situated just north of the hotel, will bo washed
into tbo lake within another year. Already the
street is encroached upon, ana to make it worse,
tho outlet to tho Fifty-first street sower is in 1
danger. As this sewer has cost over SIOO,OOO,
and' will be useless without a proper outlet, tlio
economy shown in permitting this destruction j
Is bortainly questionable, ' ,
; Nothing leas than a breakwater, parallel to
tho beach, and running the length of the park,
can save this 'valuable property, and as a few,
thousand dollars expended - now, will save more
than one hundred times the first cost, nothing
could be mbro short-sighted than to neglect to
.'Jrtiild on adequate protection for tho lake front.

CLOSE OF THE EXPOSITION.
• To-day tlio Expoeitibn closes, ’ after a ran of
thirty-eight days and nights,- daring which timo
it has bean visited by between 600,000. and
700,000 people. In their meditations to-moiyow,
the managers of the Big Show con muse upon
the work they have accomplished and the success
which attended their'undertaking, which, at one
time, a common misfortune threatened to tarn
into a financial-failures As it is. the enterprise
has been eminently successful from all points of
view. To-day being one of tho‘ 25-cent
days, as well as the last, ' a large number
of visitors are expected to.attend. On Monday,
as has already been announced, tho building will
bo open daring' tho evening for tho purpose of
giviug-a grand concert in aid of tho charitable
institutions of the city, to bo followed by a
dance, for which' a portion of tho huge floor of
tho Exposition buliding will bo cleared of goods.
This is a ; purpose for which tho building is par
ticularly well suited, and there is no doubt that;
daring the winter, if tho management put in that
$7.00U . warming apparatus, they will often bo
able to lot it for promenade concocts and similar
events. There is no necessity for such a beauti
ful building to bo left idlo for ton months in tho
year.
This morning (ho gentlemen connected with
tho Commercial Advertiser will put up at their
office a flue gold watch, which, will ho balloted
for, and presented to tho member of Executive
Committee of‘the Exposition-receiving/tho
largest number of votes. It will.cost 50, coots
to vote.-and tho money will bb . given to tho

DEAR Sins: Wo bare made a carofnl-examination of
your rubber-coated Iron pipe, in order .to detormino its
resistance to beat and cold, to steam, natural waters, and
bare even extended our researches to acids, alkali, sod
burning km. We may mention that the coaling is a
similar compound to that constituting soma for holding
artificial fcelb, except that yours' contains n qimoroury. ;
<■ It will boar a blgbaegroo of heat, over 80(1 o Fahrenheit,
as nilght bo Inferred from Ita baring been* prepared at
above 800 P.' It was nut affected by boiling for several
hours In Schuylkill water. City gas passed through it
for abont throe days appeared to have no offpot on it. ... ••
The rubber coating resisted firmly carbonic add water,
moderately dilate sulphuric and muriatic adds, and oaua<
tlopotaslniolntlon. Solutions of neutral salts have no
* C Blnco > ths*rnbbor coating exhibited such firm resistance
to add. alkali.:salt, and boat, ills clear ; that It will offer
a still stronger resistance to all natural waters. In which
some of the above ingredients aro found in a less, exag
gerated, 1. e. In a more dilute state.
<•. In fine,: wo congratulate you :• for finding a -coating for
iron, tubes, and articles of Iron generally, which Is so un
usually roslstant to ouv-of the usual agents of the chemist,
