THE CHINA FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY.

To the Editor of the Cirra MAIL."

Hongkong, Fol., 1897. SIR-I have perused with satisfaction the oxcellent report presented by The China Fice Insurance Co. to the share holdors, appearing in your inrue of the 30th ulte.

The decision of the Directors in pay the dividend yearly, only, is certainly a move in the right direction. Each year's working will rest on ita respective merits, and the chance. of the Company paying Jarger inlarim divident than warranted by the results for the year is thus obrisled,

On going into the accounts of the Com- pany, I find it to him a good financial position, and paying a dividend at the rata of 45% per nanum on the paid-up value of the shares, very handsome return to investor.

The present relative value of the acros to those of The Hongkong Fire Insurance Co. works out at about $143 per share, and thin being the case the stock is a sound in- vestment at the present maricet price.

The results of the Company's working must surely be very gratifying to the share-

holders, and to the investing Public, who, in the days of cheap ruoney, experience avantments,
