THE PEKING SYNDICATE.
THE ANNUAL REPORT.
THE BONGKONG DAILY PRESS, SATURDAY, JANUARY 17TH, 1814.
The report of the Peking Syndicate for the year ended June 30th states that the important changes which have occurred in China have continued to react upon not the Republic and the Presidenos commercial enterprises. The establish of H.E. Yuan Shih-kai have at length. been accepted, but not in time to ensure any marked result before closing the accounts under review. The receipts during the year amounted to £51.309; comprising interest on the Houan Rail way bonds, dividends on shares in other companies. sundry investments and profit on exchange. The expenditure during the saine period in London was £16,350; in Paris, £2,750; and in China, £14,619. French fiscal dues in respect of Shansi shares amounted to £997. The balance t carried to profit and loss account is £17.91 This amount, together with the amount standing at the credit of profit and loss account from last year's account, ; brings the total net eredit balance up t £408,268. The directors propose that chic! amount should be carried forward. Con- sidering the troublous times through which China has been passing during the period under review, the directors con- sider that good progress has been made by the company in developing its nues ju Honan; especially if it be remembered that, as slureholders were informed by circulae in July Inst, operations were greatly retarded and production reduced
ing to a heavy inrush of water in the workings at Nos-4 and 5 pits, whilst
from sovere pains in the waist; continual head-later there was also an inrush of water aches, attacks of dizziness, wed daily fainting £ts.
Digestion became very dificult and painful although I ate mort to nothing. My life was a misery, and I feared that it could not last much longer as all the prescribed medicines which I took with the strictest regularity failed to do
me any good."
Finally I tried the officacy of Dr. Williams Pink Pills, of which I heard so many good reports. They gave me the best possible results, for following on their use I have regained my strength, eat with relish, and my digestion is perfect. These Pills have given me aew life."

The output was necessarily reduced to a very large extent, the outputs of coal being 402.351 tons, against 470,138 in the previous year. Credit is due to the staff in China for the fact that the decreased ourput, in such exceptional circumstances (with Nos. 4 and 5 pit workings closed over practically the entire year, and with pit No. 2 closed for some months), was The company's two unly 67,087 tons. principal assets-viz... its securities and the equipment, of the NO. 1, "DURBAR VILLAS."

There is an increase in the value of the properties in China, especially of those in Hankow and Pukow As regards the former, the proximity of the Peking-Hankow line, with its rapidly-increasing traffic, and the contemplated construction of a bridge between Hankow and Wachang, has naturally enhanced the value of the com- pany's land, an increase of value which the directors anticipate has by no means reached its limit. As regards the latter recently decided to establish a thoroughly property, the Chinese authorities have equipped, up-to-date purt at Pakow, and the company's adjoining land should largely appreciate as a natural sequence.

though they may give relief for the time being, DO NOT CURE. The trouble lies deeper in the blood. These complaints are the result of clogging impurities in the blood
-and so
CAN BE CURED ONLY BY PURIFYING THE BLOOD. For cleansing the blood of all impurities, from whatever cause arising, there is no other medicine just as good as Clarke's Blood Mixture-that's why in thousands of cases ef skin and blood diseases it has effected truly remarkable cures where all other treat ments bave failed.
The Editor of the "FAMILY DOCTOR," London's popular medical weekly, writes: "We have seen hosts of letters bearing testimony to the truly wonderful cures by Clarke's Blood-Misture. It is the first Blood Purifier that Science and Medical Skill have brought to light, and we can with the utmost confidence recommend it to our subscribers and the public generally."
