The ballot taken by the General Iron Screw Col-
lier Company on the question of the proposed disposal of
their entire fleet of 12 vessels for £60,000 has terminated
in a majority in shares in favour of the proposition of 1,474
to 1,222. As, however, it is considered that this sale is
equivalent to winding-up, for which a majority of three-
fourths is necessary, the result of tho above veto is virtually
a rejection of the proposal. By a resolution pa ain
ssed Ally
meeting in the early part of last year the directors rem
empowered to sell the ships of the company.
