1. The Congress will be composed of members of 
the regular medical profession, and of such persons 
as may be specially designated by the Executive Com- 
mittee, who shall have inscribed their names on the 
Register of the Congress, and shall have taken out 
their tickets of admission. As regards foreign mem- 
bers, the above conditions are the only ones which it 
seems, at present, expedient to impose. 
The American members of the Congress shall be ap- 
pointed by the American Medical Association, by regu- 
larly organized State and local medical societies, and 
also by such general organizations relating to special 
departments and purposes, as the American Academy 
of Medicine, the American Surgical Association, the 
American Gymecologieal, Ophthalmological, Otologi- 
cal, Laryngological, Neurological, and Dermatological 
Societies, and the American Public Health Associa- 
tion ; each of the foregoing Societies being entitled to 
appoint one delegate for every ten of their members. 4 
The members of all special and subordinate Com- 
mittees, appointed by the General Committee, shall 
also be entitled to membership in the Congress. 
All Societies entitled to representation are requested 
to elect their Delegates at their last regular meeting 
preceding the meeting of the Congress, and to furnish 
the Secretary-General with a certified list of the Dele- 
gates so appointed.

5. Notices of papers to be read in any of the Sec-

The Officers of each Section shall decide as to the ac- 
ceptance of any communication offered to their Sec- 
tion, and shall fix the time of its presentation. No 
communication will be received which has been al- 
ready published, or read before a Society. 
6. All addresses and papers, read either at General 6 
Meetings or in the Sections, are to be immediately 
handed to the Secretaries. The Executive Commit- 
tee, after the conclusion of the Congress, shall pro- 
ceed with the publication of the Transactions, and 
shall have full power to decide which papers shall be 
published, and whether in whole or in part. 
7. The official languages are English, French, and

tions in the language in which it was delivered by the 
Author. The debates will be printed in English.
