GEAR MEAT COMPANY
ANNUAL MEETING. By Telegraph* —Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. The annual meeting of the Gear Meat Preserving and Freezing Company was held to-night. A dividend at the rate of ten per cent, for the year, of which five per cent, has already been paid, and a bonus of five per cent, on paid-up capital out of the insurance reserve, were declared, and will be payable immediately. The retiring directors, Messrs. Beauchamp, Reid, and Dr. A. K. Newman, were re-elected. The latter, in returning thanks for his election, he said that he had had personal, experience of the handling of the company's meat in London, and the hysterical statements concerning the scandalous handling of carcases at Home were not justified at all. The company's meat went out of the ships into barges, and then entered warehouses on the south side of the Thames. The carcases could not be damaged in any of these warehouses, and were invariably delivered in good order aid condition.
