ALL IN READINESS FOR GHERRY FAIR During the next three years of Are, lead and blood the Board of Trado battery played an active part and covered ltsolt with glory. Often tho pondorous wheels of big busi ness stopped upon receipt of news of "the Battery." January 3rd, 1863, the tumult of "the floor" died away In tho first news of the Union vic tory at Stono River was read from a telegram Bent by S. H. Stevens, who had been a grain Inspector for tho board In days of peaco. "Nashville, Tnn., Juno 3, 18C3," It ran. "Murfreeaboro Is ours. Ter rific fighting on Friday. No morn casualties In the Battery; It has won glorious distinction." Letters from tho gunners during tho latter part of the war rulatod that the badges each member woro, "B. of T. Battery," was a novor-fnll-lng paBsport at any sentry line; the pickets on seeling It would oblig ingly turn their backs, for tho rec ord of each member had boon es tablished. It was Lieutenant Griflln who fired the first shot In tho battle of Chlcamaugua and It was his bat tery which fired the last one. When news was received that General Rosecrans had ordered that a stand of colors, bearing tho names of tlio battles In which the battory had fought, had been presented to It enthusiasm rnn high. Finally, when the surviving men came back, and marched through the streets tho whole city turned out to wolcomo them. 'That was on June 27, 1805; and at a great banquet sprend on tho exchange floor among tbu grain and provision pits, the remnant of tho famous command sat down togeth er for tho Inst time. Never again woro they .all united and somo dropped oui of tho knowledge of tholr comrades for yenra. It Is, how over, a fact of national Intorost that now the record of all Is completed, be they living or doad. During tho war and through tho reconstruction days that followed, the commercial Interests of the coun try represented by tho big exchanges stood solidly by tho creon bnck and banknote In the days of their nd- vorslty. Practical patriotism and free handed sympnthy has boon shown by them ropoatcdly since tho momornblo' banquel which mnrkod At.. .llnl.n.,.ll f M,A fnmnlia lint. (cry at tho Board of Trado horo. "When tho world wns shocked at tho horrors of the Galve'ston flood, the Chlcn'go Board' or Trado asked no questions but with promptness and decision gathered Its members to gether and from tholr individual con tributions thoy sent tho crippled city 15000. When Johnston was flooded" In 1880 tho boird of trade sent $17,000 to rollovo tho suffering, III i'SOO and 1ST1 the crops of Da kota woro short, tho farmor practi cally bankrupt, nnd to Insure a crop, tho Board of Trade forwarded $2, 260.20 In the two years to purchase seed for tho farmors. Tho boar 1, without delay voluntnrlly nnd eager ly, by individual contributions, sont to the families of the policemen killed or wounded In tho Haymarkol riot, $13,000 as a alight expression of Its appreciation of bravery In tho public defense. Then, too, thp big sum of $21,726.68 was sont to tho San Francisco sufferers In 1906 when tho walls wero la ruins. Surviving members of Board of Trado battery recall tho ovations at the exchange upon their departure and return as red letter occasions, for Board of Trado mon then and now nro tho kind who In 9uch events show stirring enthusiasm and com radeship. The old-fashioned "ai?o clatlon" acts upon tho impulse of its Individual members and not as n profit-seeking corporato entity, and tho Board of Trado of Chicago Is such an association. Th difference, In these days when corporate con duct Is under the searchlight, Is sig nificant. Militant In 1865, the board is still militant; now In a warfare, costing thousands of dollars annual ly, upon Its counterfeit, the "bucket-shop," that has fleeced the public by shamming the methods of an oiwn. world'3 market. And all tho years slnco "war times" It has beeu militant in Its dictation to powerful elovator systems. I In the fact that It is merely an, association of individuals to deal, hv rule. In the nation's crops, lies the explanation of the ready response of tho Board of Trado when any emer-j irnnev In civil affairs .arose, In the. event of disaster to lives or property j or in the greater crisis of war. The, members have promptly come, for-, ward with their sympathy, their j mr.r,ov nnH aa the roster of tho famous old battery shows witn their Uvea when necessary. All Is In readiness for tho Cherry Fair; committees have been .ap pointed, events arranged and prizes decided upon.
