A meeting of members of the Lithographic and Engraving Association was held last night at the Salutation Hotel, Bourke-street, Mr Ross in the chair. The meeting was specially convened for the purpose of of considering Rule No.1, which sets forth that the advantages of loans, under certain circumstances, are held out to the unemployed members of the Association. A proposition to strike the word "unemployed" negatived, on the ground that such an alteration would give the Association too much the character of a loan society.
