The directors beg to submit the annexed secounts for the year ending 30th September, 1895, showing a balance remaining at credk of working account of $12,919.79.

P
As the Company was running short of funds, owing to extra expenditure cstalled to connec tion with the erection and worklag of the Cyanide Flant. It was found necessary to make the final call of 15 cents per share, which accordingly became payable on September 3rd
Jast.
MINING AND MILLING, Mach good work coming under this beading has been done at Panjom during the year, falt particulars and defatis of which will be found in the Manager's report herewith,
The total crashlag of ore and headings amount to 12,541 tons as against to.579 tons last year, but owing to the poorer quality of the ore, the total yield of gold fo less, vis. 4,583 61. against 5,554, or. In 1994. The quality of the ore extracted has, however, much improved lately, and a corresponding increase to the outtern of gold is expected in future.
CYANIDE PROCRIS,
This so far has proved a great disappointment. Practically no results have been obtained from the trials made and as the chemist in charge seemed unable to explain the exact cause of fallure arrangements were made with the Cassels Company at home, the patentees, to send at th-fr chief expert to make enqaleles and expert ments on the spot. This gentleman arrived at Singapore on December 5th, but was immediately ordered home again by his medical adviser on account of his health, and the Directors have had no other coune open to them than to reopen negotiations for a fresh man in his place. The consequent waste of time and money is greatly to be deplored.
