Abstract
THE nineteenth annual general meeting of the Institution of Mining Engineers, which was held in Edinburgh on September 2-4, was largely attended, and was altogether a most successful gathering, the papers, discussions, and excursions being all of more than ordinary interest. Dr. R. T. Moore (Glasgow) was elected president for the ensuing year. The annual report showed that the membership was considerably more than 3000. It was announced that owing to the death of the secretary, Mr. M. Walton Brown, various changes had been found necessary. The headquarters of the institution would be moved from Newcastle to Westminster, and Prof. L. T. O'Shea (Sheffield University) was appointed honorary secretary and Mr. P. Strzelecki assistant secretary.
