The following is the report presented to the sharchoffers at the fourth annual meeting to be held on Monday, the 16th February, 1894, at the Cannon Street Station Hotel, Londen, E.C. at 17.30 p.m. :—
The Directors beg to submit to the share holders a statement of the affairs of the Bank for the year ending 31st December, 1893. The net profit, after deducting all expenses at Head Office, Branche and Agencies, including interest on Fixed Depoal's and other charges, amounts · £18,-89. 17, 78,

FOOCHOW NOTES.
Frochow, 17th March, 1894. A fortnight ago we quoted the price of golt leaf at $49 per tael weight. It has since 'fallen to cents per tael.
The Viceroy attended by several mandaviss, will ascend the bill eatside the East-gate of the city today to worship the heavens.
The Provincial Treasurer has discovered that four magistrates in the province have been helping themselves to monies belonging to the revenue and has dismissed them in coner quence. Dealers in sugar-cane have had a very bad time of it for somes years past, but have been making large prefits this seaton owing to a good demand from the Northern ports.
Unfortunately, however, not only has this profit on the Working Account of the year been absorbed by the untoward course of exchange, consequent on the continued serious fall in the price of aliver, and by decline is the value of Investments and advances made when the concern wis a Trust and Lown Company, and before it became a Bank, but an addioral sum, which brings, the total deficiency or loss in £116,732, os tid. In these figures a fully sufficient sum has been pro-Treasurer. vided to cover depreciation in assets in thi-
country, and to meit uncertained lots by exchange on money which has been brought home during the year; but the assets still in the East continue subject to the vicissitudes of silver, and although, taken sil round, the securi- ties held earn, on the money advanced, a rate of interest in excess of the rate paid on deposits, and are all of a sound character, it would not be possible at this time to realize the majority of them without submitting to a great sacrifice (which fortunately the liabf'ities of the Bank do aat render necessary), and it is hoped that by continuing the treatment which has enabled the Bank to largely reduce its outstandings during the year, there will be an ultimate recovery i valve which will greatly improve the position of ils affatis.
As indicated at the last general meeting the Directors have made a Call of per share, which has been paid satifacterly so far as the London Register is concerned; but difficulty has been experienced in procuring payment from certain shareholders in China, against whom it has been necessary to institute proceedings.
The Board have deemed it in the interests of the Bank to bring Mr. Thon, Pays from India, where he has been in charge of the branches in that country, and to appoint him Chief Manager in London; and his great experience, combined with that of the Managers we have now in charge of business in India, Hongkong and China, lead the Board to entertain boozfal feelings regarding the prospects of the Bank in its exchange operations with these countries.
The directors who retire by rotation are Mr. D. McLean and Mr. H. D. S'ewart, who, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election.
The auditors. Messt. Turquand. Your ge, Bishop and Clarke, retire, and offer themselves for ra⚫clecilon.
By order of the Board,
