The Council of the Yorkshire Philosophical Society have 
now the pleasure to lay before the members, at their xAnnual 
Meeting, their Report for the year 1894. 
As the Treasurer’s Balance Sheet will be laid upon the table 
and be fully referred to, after the reading of the Report, it will 
be unnecessary to go into detail in respect of the Finances of 
the Society, further than to refer briefly to the Income and 
the Expenditure of the past year as compared with similar 
items of the previous year. 
The total income of the Society for the year 1894 amounts 
to £1,^14 i 8s. 6d., as compared with £1,114 14s. 7d. of the 
previous year. The gross Expenditure of the Society for the 
past year amounts to £1,146 17s. 3d., leaving a balance 
of excess of Income over Expenditure in the hands of the 
Treasurer of £68 Is. 3d. 
As a sum of £39 7s. 2d. was a balance to the good in the 
hands of the Treasurer in the previous year, there is now a 
balance of £107 8s. 5d. to the credit of the Society in the 
Treasurer’s hands. 
There is also a further balance of £39 18s. lid. in respect of 
Income on the Reed Bequest of £600 invested in Corporation 
Stock. 
The increasing interest taken by the public in the Society is 
shewn by the fact that a sum of £772 Is. 6d. has been received 
from Subscribers and Compounders during the past year, as 
compared with £703 received in the previous year. 
There is also an increase of upwards of £20 in the Grate
