A preliminary meeting of the joint committees and others in conference for organization of the movement to erect in Baltimore a monument to the Confederate women in Maryland was held yesterday at the home of Miss E. T. MeIlvain, 512 Park avenue.

The committees from the different societies are as follows:

Society of the Army and Navy of the Confederate States in the State of Maryland-Capt. G. W, Booth, Capt. MeHenry Howard, Major W. Stuart Symington, Lieut. Joseph Packard, Messrs. Charles T, Crane and James R. Wheeler.

Auxiliary Committee from the Daughters of the Confederacy-Mrs. D. Giraud Wright, chairman; Mrs. F. G. Odenheimer, Mrs. Charles Marshall, Mrs. Thomas Baxter Gresham, Mrs. William Reed, Mrs. E. S. Beall and Mrs. George T. M, Gibson.

As subscriptions have already begun to be received for the memorial fund, it was found necessary to appoint a treasurer, and the committees from the Army and Navy Society and the Maryland Division United Confederate Veterans accordingly appointed Mr. Samuel H. Lyon, 101 East Preston street, to that office.
