The Diamond Market. -A Reuter telegram from Kim- berley dated Dec. 9 says:-Mr. Osts, the chairman, presided at the 23rd annual meeting of tho De Boers Consolidated. Minos (Limited) here this morning. Proposing the adoption of the balance-sheet and profit and loss account, tito ahsirman comment- ed specially on the following points: The profit for the year. was £2,270,201, after providing £488,000 for depreciation, in- cluding £247,180 written off claime and reducing the ma---Chins Fire chinery and permanent works to £1. Of that profit £1,800,000- had been appropriated for divi- dends. Together, with 2205,458 for Union mining taxation on profits for the year, the company had also to pay £310,137 for Union mining ixution in respect of the provious year, the amount of which was applicable to the Lalanes of £728;305 on- appropriated on July 1, 1910. Tho balance carried-forward on June 30, 1911, waś - £823,019. and the revenue froin diamond account for the last year was £4,038,000 against £5,414,000| for the previous year.

For the year 1909-10 the com- pany had sold 3,014,270 carats for £5,842,000, Resuming, ita customary policy of judiciously regulating supply by demand and thus favourably influencing| the prices of diamonds, the com pany had limitod its sales to 2,147,400 enrats during 1010-11,| which had realized £4,015,000, averaging 40s. Od. por carat, us against 388. 9d. per curat for the preceding rear. Notwithstand- ing the very large decroaro in quantities, the total profit was reduced by only £420,000.

Tho reserve investments lind beon incroated from £008.000 to £1,337,050, and to stock of bluei ground on the floora had bron inorensed from 7,770,000 to 9,021,000 lonils. During the year they had provided for the redemp tion of first mortgage, debentures and obligations a mounting to 1,243,000, and had transferred 8405,804 to reserve investments.

Referring to the future of the company, the chairman, said that they were unable to obtain in the past financial year the benefits of the rise in the prices of diamonds which had now been brought! about by their self-denial ˇin palling on the market suller quantities, but they were now boginning to derive bonefits from this policy, and he folt that with a continuation of the present prices the company should be able to make in the current financial year a considerably greator profit, and that shareholders might expect | some increased payment next year.

The report was seconded by Colonel Horris, who said that the chairmen had not erred on the side of undue optimism, with re gard to the future. It was resolved to send a cablegram of sympathy with Sir Julius Wernher in hia illness and an expression of good wishes for his speedy recovery:—–— Bouter.
