MIDLAND GREAT WESTERN.

An adjourned special meeting of this company
was held on Thursday, in Dublin. Mr. Ralph S.
Cusack, the chairman, presided, to receive the re-
port of the committee appointed by the shareholders
to inquire into the affairs of the company with a
view to their improvement. The report, which was
of great length, pointed out several defects in the
management of the line, in which there was alleged
to have been excessive expenditure, and suggested
several improvements. The Hon. G. S. Gough,
chairman of the committee, moved the acceptance
of the report, requesting the directors to carry out
only such of the suggestions as would be for the in-
terests of the company. Lord Clonbrock seconded
the resolution, which was carried unanimously. The
meeting showed good feeling and forbearance, con-
trasting favourably with the disorderly proceedings
that took place at some of the previous meetings.
It was mentioned that the affairs of the com-
pany could be much improved, and the value of
the shares increased.
