In (2), Holcombe investigated near-rings of zero-preserving mappings of a group Γ which commute with the elements of a semigroup S of endomorphisms of Γ and examined the question: under what conditions do near-rings of this type have near-rings of right quotients which are 2-primitive with minimum condition on right ideals? In the first part of this paper (§2) we investigate further properties of near-rings of this type. The second part of the paper (§3) deals with those near-rings which have semisimple near-rings of right quotients. Our results here are analogous to those of Goldie (1); in particular, with a suitable definition of finite rank we prove that a near-ring which has a semisimple near-ring of right quotients has finite rank
