The report of the Publication Committee was then read, as follows:

The Publication Committee would respectfully submit the following report:

In accordance with the instructions of the Association, they perfected arrangements with The S. S. White Dental Manufacturing Company, whereby the Transactions were furnished free of cost to the Association.

Copies of the Transactions have been furnished to all members entitled to them, and to the various libraries, universities, journals, and honorary members, leaving in the hands of the Secretary about thirty copies.

The committee also had printed five hundred copies of the Constitution.

The late date at which the Transactions were distributed was owing to circumstances which your committee could not control. The stenographer, owing to sickness, did not furnish a copy of the discussions until three months had elapsed after the meeting in New York, and after the copy was placed in the hands of the publishers, great delay attended the progress of the work, and the Transactions were only received by the committee on June 7th, on which day they were mailed to the members.

The following is the account of the committee with the Association: Received of the Treasurer.

From sale of Transactions...

$75 00 200

We have examined the within report and found it correct.
