TE AROHA MINING COMPANIES.

Annual Meetings of Shareholders.

The annual meetings of shareholders ni neveral of tlio To Aroha Ooldinining Companies were to have been held at Mr D. O. MacDonnol's ollico, Insurance Build ings, this afernoon. Wo append abstracts of the reports which were to have been sub" mitted by the directors of eacli : —

EtniF.KA.—Tho annual meeting of elinro holders of tho To Aroha Eureka Oold mining Company was to iiavo boon lield Into this afternoon. From tho Directors' report it appears that satisfactory progress has boon made since last meeting, both In de veloping the mine (tho prospocts of which are most encouraging), and in providing crnshing power, and connecting with the county tramway. These latter had been done without any monetary expendi ture on the part of the company, reserve share* being neoepted by the Bat tery Company in payment, ('rushing opera tions will bo commenced when the mine is .connected by tramway with the battery, which is expected to bo within fourteen days. There is every prospect of ten stainpors being continuously employed for a long period on -what promises to be pay able quartz. The receipts for the yenr, in clusive of balance, £13 7s 3d, from last audit, amount to £?1"> Ss 9d, and the expenditure to £702 4s sd. Tlio asset?, exclusive of uncalled capital, amount to £123 12s lOd, and the liabilities to i.'tt l()s. Nkw FiJfi).—The report, states thut tho progress during the yenr has been satis factory. The grow receipts amounted to £G,410 11s lid, and of . that sum £5^743 15s s<l was received for gold obtained from 1,489 tons of quartz, which enabled the directors to declare a dividend to the extent of 2h per share, iwjual to £1,980, Crushing operations were oniy commenced in December lsst, and that with a limited number of stampers. The result must, therefore, be considei'ud gratifying, and ivill compare with many leading mines other goldfields. The mino manager's re port doalß so encouragingly with tho pro apecta of the mine that they must be considered satisfactory. Waitoki.— In this report, the. Directors regret that the result of tho past yeaiV operations have not boen satisfactory. Some months bac'.c they were led to expect that the reefs then being worked would yield payable results,, judging from tins ordinary modes of prospecting. But on the quartz being sent to tho bat tory the return was far from payable, while the gold was less valuable than in other wines. The directors then determined to reduco the expenditure by confining tho operations to prospecting. But no payable reef had yet been dis covered, although the country wan favour able for gold-bearing reefs. Tho receipts for tho year, inclusive of cue balance of Uo 17s 3d from last year, and £S1 }2a Id from "old the proceeds of 109 tons of quartz amount to £484 14* 4d. The assets, OS. elusive of uncalled capital, we i" excess ot liabilities by £42 4s 9d. Pbrmier.—Tho directors' report regrets that the operations have not been so sucj cissful as oxpected, but anticipate that further development will lead to the dis covery of pryable quartz. Ihe receipts for the year, inclusive of the balance of £j! 19s 3d from last audit, and £1,700 Is 2d derived from gold, proceeds from 790J, tons of quartz, amount to t2,315i11s lid, and the expenditure to f 2,275 12s. Tiie asaeU, exclusive of uncalled capital, are in excess of liabilities by £49 0s 10d.
