Since the last report was issued four new 7,000 ton steamers have been contracted for with Mesars Caird and Co., Messrs. Barclay, Carle and Co., and Messrs. A. Stophen and Son. It may be of interest to state that during the last twenty years the company have added to the fleet new steamers at a total cost of £8,500,000. During the period of the port the fleet has worked admirably and without delay of any kind.
Transport Services-During the last few months twelve of the company's steamers have been employed. for longer or shorter periods, as transports in connection with the war in South Africa, and their work has been throughout satisfactory. At the present time. five steamers are still under Government char- ter,

Employment of Indian Scamon.-Some political significance has recently been attempt A Begister of all Glasses supplied my consti ed to be given to the employment of Indian seamon on board British ships, and this com- tuents in the Far East is kept here and any pany, as carrying out important wall contracts, kind of ordinary or special lenses can be has bean singled out for animadversion because, obtained, the law us prescribed by the Government of In- ind for their own subjects differs from the Mer. chaut Shipping Act of this country. The controversy may have some important results in it bearing alike on the employment of Indian soumen and on the peculiar conditions of the company's work. It seems important, therefore, to show that, what, wer may be the result, the actibu of the company has been in this, as in all other transactions, perfectly above board and straight-forward. For, this reason the directors included in an appendix to this report, a letter addressed to the Board of Trade, inviting a competent legal decision and setting; forth as briefly as possible the true facts of the
caan.
Honoral Summary. It may be said that throughout the period covered by this report. Eastern trade has been generally satisfactory. So far as China and Japan are concerned the business has been fairly identical in extent, with that of last year, while the Australian position shows improvement in various directions. al. though the wool export has not recovered from the decline caused by several seasons of excessive drought. The company's freight returns show therefore on the whole an advance over those of last year, notwithstanding the fact their pure- ly commercial lines have been occasionally inter- rupted owing to the demands of the Transport Services There has not however, been eny interference with the regular work of the wail lines. Last year the passenger receipts artain od the highest level they had ever reached bat the returns of the present yete point to a con. siderable reaction in this branch of revenue.
Dividend.--The directors have much pleasure in recommending the payment of the sun interim dividend at the rate of 3 per cent. per anbumi un the Preferred, and 7 per cent per aaa on, the Deferral stock which will payable on and after June 19th.
