INDO-CHINA STEAM NAVIGATION
CO., LIMITED,
~ The following is the thliteenth annual report of the Board of Directore presented to the sbareholders at the fourteenth "ordinary general meeting, which was to be held at the offices of the Company, Landon, the 13th ultimo :—
The Board of Directors submit herewith to the shareholders their report and statement of ac counts for the year 1894
Notwithstanding the destructive war in which China has been engaged for the last five months of the year, it is very gratifying to be able to report that 1894 has been a prosperous year for the Company. This is mainly due to the fact that host'll·les were localized in the Northern districts, Manchuria and the Yellow Sea, and that the Japanese abstained from interference with the trade of the Treaty poris, ar with that of the river Yanglaze.
The net earnings of the steamers amount to £91,071 56, id, and thlu bas enabled the Board' to make increased provision for their reduction in valoo, by crediting £33,831 to depreciation account. The assets have ben written down to 2/1 per dollar, which it is hoped will prove sufficiently low, the exchange being now higher. This, however, has cont £7,875, 10%. 71, while | the exchange reserve of £13 501 108. gd., referred
