The reporter was requested to withdraw whilst the 
-Council considered the Report of the Committee ap¬ 
pointed last month with regard to the reporting. After 
an interval, he was recalled and informed that in future 
his reports of the proceedings of the Council must lie

any supervision over them, and that, subject to this 
editorial control, he must use his own discretion in con¬ 
densation or otherwise.

MEMBERS. 
The following Pharmaceutical Chemists were elected 
Members, and their diplomas were stamped with the 
seal of the Society:— 
'' Hughes, James .Sydney. 
Wilson, John Henry .Calcutta. 
The Secretary drew attention to the fact that the 
two newly elected Members were resident abroad, and 
stated that the general practice in such cases was for the 
gentlemen elected to pay the first year s subscription 
only. He suggested that foreign members should be 
required to pay a life membership subscription. 
Mr. Saxdford and other gentlemen were of opinion 
that the Council had no power to make such a regula¬ 
tion. If Members residing abroad discontinued their 
.subscriptions, they would be treated in the ordinary way, 
.and required, in accordance with the Bye-law, to return 
their certificate of membership.
