The Chairman said that was not exactly the case, because he gave Colonel Beaumont dis-year. tinctly to understand the matter would have to be brought before the Council and the vote submitted.

Mr. Rytle asked if there was not something about payment in the Governor's minu'e.

The Chairman said there was no amount specifically mentioned, but Colonel Beaumont was to receive something,

The yote was passed.

THE PURCHASE OF BAXTER HOUSE, The Chairman said the next role was for the purchase of Baxter House as a police station, but the correspondence and information on thi- subject was somewhat lengthy, and it was most desirable hon. members should be placed in possession of full information on the subject. He therefore begged to move that this matter be postponed to a future meeting.

The Committee then adjourned,

A. G. GORDON AND COMPANY, LIMITED,

The following is the report for presentation to the shareholders at the first ordinary general meeting to be held at the office of the Company 9, Praya Central, on Saturday, the 22nd day of March, 1890, at 3 p.m. -

I have now to submit to shareholders the annexed annual statement of accounts of the Company, to 31st December, 1889, showing a profit of $6,230.25 from which has to be deduct ed the interim dividend of 5 per cent declared in August last amounting to $3,218 33 leaving a balance of $3010.93 at credit of Working Account. It is proposed to appropriate this amount as follows:-

$1,138.30 in payment of Preliminary Expenses $300 00 for remuneration to Consulting Com

millee

leaving $582.62 to be carried forward to new

account.

It will be observed that all the abares in the Company, have not been taken up although at the time the Company was floated they were all applied for, some of the applications have been cancelled altogether, as it was found impossible to collect anything from the applicants, but the remainder of the calls will be collected later on- with interest from their due date.

The total profit is rather less than in former years, owing to the late rise in value of iron and other material which diminished the returns from contracts then pending and taking this into considerations the result of the year's work may be considered fairly satisfactory.

'CONSULTING COMMITTER. Mr. J. W. Noble having retired, Mr. W. F. McIntosh was invited to fill his place on the -Board-lo-accordance with the Articles of Association, the present members retire but offer themselves for re-election.

AUDITORS.

The accounts have been audited by Messrs. L. Downes and A. O. D'Gourdin who offer them- selves for re-election.

A. G. GORDON,

The general business of the Company has been of a satisfactory and profitable nature though owing to the incidence of cholers and cattle disease during a portion of the year, which Caused some stoppage to the work in the Philippines, extra expense was unavoidably incurred and a consequent diminution in the

ofits of the Company.

P

Prospects for the current year are good and the General Managers & Consulting, Committee: have every hope of a favorable result being hewn on the working of this year's business both here and is Manda.

CONSULTING COMMITTER.

Mr. Dalrymple and Mr. Sassoon retire, in accordance with the Articles of Association, but- being eligible offer themselves for re-election.

The accounts have been audited by Mr. Fullarton Henderson, and his appointment requires confirmation.
