Business on a small scale only was transacted during the morn- ing, and the market generally was quiet. The mining section was in- clined to be active, due possibly to a rumour that Antamoks are the ratification of the ofer and making a ̈new issue of one new share to ten old at 60 centavos and declaring a dividerd of 21 centavos on the existing issue.

The Chairman (Mr. Herbert Guedalla) announced that votes for the resolution amounted to £315,000, and... against €110,000 The proposal, therefore. failed to attain the necessary two-thirds majority by £3,600
There was an almost unanimous view that the Soviet offer should be accepted, but there was divergence of opinión as to the manner in which the money, should be divided. “
The next stage will rest with the shareholders, reports of which meeting have not been received.
