The subjoined circular, dated Saturday, has been
forwarded to the shareholders in the London and
River Plate Bank (Limited):
The directors have the satisfaction of informing the
shareholders that their managers in the River Nate report
the continued prosperity of the branches under their charge,
and a steady and regular increase in the business of the bank.
The last advice, both from Buenos Ayres and Montevideo
announce an extraordinary plethora of money with unti-
sually low rates of interest. The dull and inactive season
for export of produce (from March to September) has just
commenced, and the managers do not anticipate any im-
mediate improvement in these respects. Under these
circumstances, the directors do not deem it advisable to
propose any addition to the usual interim dividend of 5 per
, cent. A dividend warrant, free of income tax, payable
on the 21st June, will be forwarded to the address of all
persons appearing on the register on the 13th June.
It is stated that efforts are being made by AOMO
of the shareholdersof the European Bank (Limited),
now in course of liquidation, to procure a searching
investigation into the affairs and dealings of that
bank with the St. Nazaire Land Company (Limited),
which is also in course of liquidation.
