A  ballot  being  ordered,  Messrs.  J.  F.  Hancock  and  C.  L.  Eberle 
acted  as  tellers,  and  reported  the  election  of  the  nominees. 
The  Committee  on  Credentials  handed  in  credentials  from  delega- 
tions of  the  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy,  the  Alumni  Associa- 
tion of  the  Maryland  College  of  Pharmacy,  and  the  Georgetown  Col- 
lege School  of  Pharmacy.  Objections  were  raised  against  the  recep- 
tion of  the  latter  delegation,  it  being  contended  that  the  words  "  Col- 
leges of  Pharmacy,"  in  Article  vi,  Chapter  vi,  of  the  By-Laws,  referred 
to  pharmaceutical  associations  bearing  this  title,  and  not  merely  to 
educational  institutions,  and  that  the  representation  by  delegates  was 
accorded  to  the  local  associations  composed  of  pharmacists  and  drug- 
gists, and  not  merely  to  the  faculties  of  the  teaching  Colleges  of  Phar- 
macy. The  subject  was,  on  motion,  referred  to  a  Committee  com- 
posed of  one  from  each  recognized  delegation  present  and  five  mem- 
bers appointed  by  the  President  from  the  Association  at  large. 
The  President  elect,  Mr.  Albert  E.  Ebert,  of  Chicago,  was  con- 
ducted to  the  Chair  by  Professors  William  Procter,  Jr.,  and  J.  F. 
Moore,  and  a  vote  of  thanks  was  then  passed  to  the  retiring  officers. 
Fifteen  applicants  for  membership  were  elected. 
Dr.  Charles  A.  Tufts  read  the  Treasurer's  report  for  the  past  year, 
which  was  referred  to  an  Auditing  Committee,  consisting  of  Messrs. 
W.  J.  M.  Gordon,  of  Cincinnati,  T.  H.  Patterson,  of  Chicago,  and  J. 
S.  Robinson,  of  Memphis.    The  report  accounts  for  $4781.06  passing
