ABUSE OF PROCESS OF THE COURT.

INTERESTING CASES IN, STOMARY. COURT.

Judgment waY given by His Honour the Puiano Judge on an application for a review of twe judgments, namely Nos. 369 and 384 of 1931, in which judgment was given in the first instance for the plaintiff in each case for $1,000 damages and, casts This was an application that these judgments" bo set aside and that judgment be entered for, the defendants in those actions.

The overdraft is about 8000,000 more than. in 1929, and this is mainly accounted for by the heavy dock extension expenditure on amounting to 900,000,, also the iBereased cast in dollars materials imported from other countries.

Interest charges amount to the. large sum of $422,000 as against $418,000 the previous year, and I might mention that the interest on the amount spent on widening the No. 1 Dook at Kowloon has been added to Capital Account.

After bringing in $200,000 from reserves and writing off deprecin tion on buildings and plant, there is a balance at credit of Proft and Loss of 828,298.25, which, with 8121,903.83 brought forward from last year, leaves 8150.282.00 to be carried forward to next account.

Depreciation amounts to. 8143,000 as against, $148,000 last year and "is considered ample. Your plant and buildings are in excellent order and the whole upkeep of same has been paid for, out of revenue.

His Lordship, in course of lengthy judgment, stated that it was quite clear that, judgment having been obtained against one fort-fcusur, even though unsatis Aed, this judgment is a bar to all further proceedings against the others.

We also built, a number of smail vessels, mostly, motor, driven, and, His Honour stated that he thought. am glad to be able to tell you,

In the course of his judgment

it desirable to deal shortly with that all of these have given tho the third ground for the review-set greatest satisfaction to their, own out in Mesars. Hastings, Dennys &ers, though the margin of profit, in Bowley's letter to Messrs. Lo & Lothe building of them, is very small. namely, that the writs 202 and 364 Docking and repair, work was diffi of 1931 should be set aside as an cult to secure, abuse of the process of the Court. On this ground His Honour was also of the opinion that the ap. plicants must succeed,

Judgment was given for the ap. plicants in both these two actions with opsts. The judgment also given in actions 245 and 289 of 1031 were also reversed and judgment entered in each cass, with costs, Bimilarly in actions.271. and of 1031, the claims were barred and in each case judgment was entered for the defendants with costs.

It is a matter of great, regret to the Directors that we are again ww able to pay, a dividend, but when you consider what a disastrous year 1030 was for shipping, coupled with the debacle in succ, I, trust, that you will not consider, the resul altogether unsatisfactory,
