If that met with the views of the shareholders, he proposed to put a resolution to that effect. Meanwhile, if there were any criteisms or questions which any shareholder desired to make, the directors would do their best to satisfy them. The resolution whilch he proposed was That this meeting be adjourned for the presentation of accounts and directora" report of the company until a date in January, 1914, to be fixed by the directora." Mr. M. G. Hale esconded the resolu- tion. Mr. Ackroyd asked whe ther the chairman could tell him how great a loss the accounts were likely to show. The Obair- man, in reply, said that it was im possible to state definitely the amount of the loss, but he wa afraid it would be a very big one and that they had had a dis appointing year. Up to a poin they had had hopes that the com pany had at last turned the cor ner, and would really get on to profit earning basis, but then, e they all know, early in January be thought it was, they had la n'dreadful set-back in this beav depreciation in the price of rul bor. The resolution was carrie unanimously.
