During the past year, $60,742.20 have been expended in valuable additions to the works at East Point, including large godown, and the Company has acquired by purchase the property at Wanchai known as the Oriental Refinery, the Swatow Refinery, and the Hongkong premises as shown in the statement of account annexed. The cost of them added to the earnings of the Company, and is to be valuable sources of income in the future.

The cost of the properties purchased has been met to a certain extent by the issue of Debenture Bonds for $300,000.

The shareholders are aware that the fee charged to this Company for licence to distil has been raised from $100 to $2,000. This charge has formed the subject of a representation to the Secretary of State for the Colonies.
