MELBOURNE EXHIBITION COMMITTEE.
The usual weekly meeting of the committee was held yesterday in the Chamber of Commerce, Mr Q-. GK Stead in the chair. Dr. Turnbull wrote suggesting the formation of a sub committee at Malvern to secure the better exhibition of coal from that district. The secretary was directed to communicate with the gentlemen named in Dr. Turnbull’s letter asking them to act. A circular from the interim secretary of the Commission at Wellington was read, announcing that arrangements had been made with the Union Steamship Company for the conveyance of exhibits, also stating that in a few days a sum would probably be remitted to defray petty expenses. It was resolved that the secretary should ascertain if prices are to be affixed to exhibits, and if those prices would influence the judges in their awards. After the transaction of some further business, the committee adjourned till Monday next.
