These shares are not to be marked at present. The committee have also ordered the shares of the Anglo-Egyptian Bank (Limited) to be quoted in the official list. The advance in the shares of the City of Milan Im provements is partly caused by the announcement that King Victor Emmanuel, accompanied by the Italian Minister for Foreign Affairs, will visit Milan at the end of this month, during the last few days of the Carnival, it being the object of his Majesty to lay the first stone of the works of the new buildings about to be constructed by the company. These works are to be proceeded with forthwith, and are regarded with, great interest throughout Northern Italy, owing to the importance of Milan as a commercial centre.
