Seventy-five new members have paid initiation fees during the 
past year which, with their annual contributions, have increased the 
revenues of the General Fund , the balance on hand at this date 
($2,398,97) being $785.80 in excess of that of last year, 
Twenty-five have paid $100 each as life members, and two life sub¬ 
scriptions to the Academy’s publications of $75 each have been re¬ 
ceived. These amounts have been retained in the principal and 
invested for the benefit of the General Fund. 
Two hundred and sixty-eight names are on the list of members con¬ 
tributing $10 annually, most of whom pay promptly on receipt of 
their bills. Five elected in 1893 have paid nothing yet, Seven (7) 
are three years or more in arrears for dues and will probably be 
dropped from the list, 
All of which is respectfully submitted, 
Chas. P. Perot, 
Treasurer.
