EAST AFRICAN COFFEE.
Proposals providing for 30,000 shares of the East African Coffee Plantations, Ltd., of Melbourne; being constituted as 7 per cent., cumulative participating preference shares, which were agreed to at a meeting held on December 20. last, were confirmed; by shareholders at a subsequent meeting. Owing, to the lack of response from,, shareholders, the, directors were obliged to alter the articles of association in order to place the issue. The necessary amendment to the articles was sanctioned by shareholders. The chairman (Mr. S. B. Bagley), at the conclusion of the meeting, said that the issue had now been oversubscribed, applications coming principally from shareholders. It was now believed thai the current season's crops, representing 400 tons, would realise £80 a ton, instead of £60 previously expected.
