We understand that in the abs- nee of Mr Henderson, Mr Martin has amended the offor made by the Circular Saw Company to purchase the assets of the N.Z.S.N. Co., recently made. Mr Martin now offers L23,J00 for the ships and all ship's stores, the hulks, slip, cradle, land and buildings freehold and leasehold, together -with the benefit of the present insurance on vessels and buildings belonging to the company. A meeting of shareholders will shortly take place, and there is every reason to believe that the offer of Mr Martin, who has throughout manifested a desire to treat with the greatest fairness, not to say liberality, will be accepted, and the vessels transferred to the Circular Saw Company. — Wellington Evening Post.
