Company (Limited) were received this morning. A
circular issued to the shareholders has the following :
Mr. Barnard. who was connected with the
Works now belonging to the Anglo• Argentine
Company (Limited), has furnished the direc-
tors with a careful statement, showing from
actual results already obtained by practical
Working, that if the company only work two cajones
of ore per day, they can realise a profit of £1,500
Per month, or 45 per cent. on a capital of £40,000,
and that this can be increased to almost any extent,
from time to time, by enlarging the works and in-
creasing the means of transport. Mr. Barnard's de-
tailed statement can be seen by any shareholder, at
~L4le company's offices ; but as it contains much valu-
able information, it would be unwise in the interest of
the company to publish it. I regret it cannot be
printed for circulation."
