The question of holding an industrial exhibition in Auckland, similar to that recently held in Wellington, was referred to by the chairman, who reported that the president, Mr. Anderson, and himself had attended two meetings with Messrs. S. J. Harbutt and D. W. Buttle, president and vice-president respectively of the Auckland Industrial Association, and it had been definitely decided that an exhibition at the present time was not advisable.

Messrs. A. Tyree, M. M. Louisson, and W. A. Thompson were elected members of the chamber.
