Excerpt from Science, Vol. 12: A Weekly Journal, Devoted to the Advancement of Science, July-December, 1900From the point of view of scientific work the New York meeting of the Association was the most successful in its history, with the possible exception of the anniversary meeting held two years ago at Boston. It was not expected that New York City would be a favorable place to awaken local enthusiasm or altogether suitable for social gather ings, but even in these respects there were no grounds for complaint. The attendance a registration of about 450 - Was not as large as had been 'hoped for. It included, how ever, an unusually large proportion of fellows, and there were perhaps three hundred members Of the affiliated Societies present who did not register as members of the asso ciation. The assembly of scientific men was therefore about as large as it ever has been, and considerably larger than Since 1884, with the exception of the anniversary meeting.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
