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

(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-,
