I mado to the annual meeting of the i Chamber of Commerco last nlght. was ono not only of snecial interest. but ot i lmportance, covering ns It did, tho general work of the chamber durlng the past year and Us grent posslblli ties for the future. Admlrablo results can be tracod to nfforts made durlnpr tli0 past yeitr. and thn offlcers and Governor believe that thls period has rnarked tho extenslon of the lnfltjence and cfllclency of the chamber, not only ln thc city, biit throughout a large terrltory.

The efforts made by the cham? ber to secure a crcdltablo pasgepger station at the junctlon point of the Norfolk and Western and Atlantic Coast Llne roads in thls city, proved successfitl. Thc functlons of the gov? ernors Included vigllauce over clvic as well as commerclal matters. and thus the Petersburg Chamber of Com? merce was ln large measure responsl ble for flnally securlng the confer enco last year in Roanoke to consider the necesslty of reform In munlclpal gov? ernment ln Vlrginla.
