An extraordinary general meeting of the share-

board.
The report of the directors was as follows :

have the pleasure on thigthe first occasion of meeting this

and prospects of the company, and to offer a few
observations in complete corroboration of the Matementa

direness wader themselves fortunate in
having been enabled to avail themselves of the services of
Mr. Charles Barry and of Mr. Digby Wyatt (one of their
ownbody), who have visited Milan during the demolition of
the expropriated buildings and the program of
{ion These These gentlemen have personally inspected the field
of the company's operations, and have, st the soot of much
time and labour, checked the original estimates, investigated
the contracts with the builders, and perused the tenders for
leases already received by the local committee. To the lucid
and very ample report of lir.Barry the direotoreespenially de-
sire to call the careful oonsideration of the shareholders, who
will be enabled from its to judge of the enciouragieg
sec of the anat. the naremitting energy with
prop which the works have been prosecuted, and the moan
with which the original estimates were framed. The ris-
port of Mr. Barry further shows that the integral part of
the undertaking is being rapidly urged on, an that the
entracte have been taken at prices lower than those of the
original estimate. Intelligence his, since the date of this
report, been received that the thoroughfare is completed
between the Pisan Doom° and the Piaui della Soda, and
transvereely between the Via Raffia*
private to sad the
reportVaghorite. Mr. Digby Wyatt observes, in a
the board, that with respect to the work done, " in quality
it is first rate, is quantity extraordinary ," and with respect
to the works which remain to be done, "if the
same energy which has been heretofore displayed
shall be maintained to the end, I do not doubt that
Signor Meavni's expectations will be carried out to e
letter. At the present time the vault' are completed along
the first half of the Victor Emmanuel Gallery from
of the
the
Pierre della Scala to the antral octagon. The whole
buildings abutting upon the same line and to the same
is
extent
are raised up to the level of the snood floor, which
nearly all laid, including the fire-proof construction." On
I the subject of the prices, Mr. Digby Wyatt observes, " I
can distinctly and clearly record my impression that the
total spent is very moderate indeed for the quantity of
work done." "The prices of the work as settled with the
contractor in his schedule are about 4 per mat less than
these published by the government as guides for the settle-
ment of the prices of work in Milan in the past year." The
oeiginal estimate of • prospective dividend of 15 per mot.
from freehold rents, is fully borne out in Mr. Barry's report,
and this gentleman further remarks, "In many positioos in
the sew gallery, rents will be obtained considerably higher
than were taken in the original schedule." Mr. Digby Wyatt
Elates, moreover, " There is, I think, no doubt that by the
dater when the buildings shall be completed thel denied
will (if it continues at the present rate) vastly *need the
space at the disposal of the oompany. Hitherto the prin-
cipal and most orgect applications have been for the lower
floors; but as those who desire to have business premises
below have also expressed their desire to have apartments
for residence over their business premises, there is no doubt
that the whole, from cellars to roof, will be crowded with

met its engagements, coupled with this energetic promo-

its credit throughout Italy, and obtained sun favourable
recognition from the Sim and the municipal authori-

sterling. The directors, for the foregoing reasons,
anxious, also, to avail themselves of the important option
entained in the original concession of the priority of exe-
cution of all future public works in Milan, farther recom-
mend that the capital of the new company shall be at least
20.000,000 lire, or 1300,0001., in 40,000 shares of 500 lire or
201. each, of which a sufficient number will be appropriated
to the shareholders of the present company in exchange for
their shares on the terms explained in the circular of Rad
Deeember.
tion of the report
The CRISMAN in moving the adop. said
he was happy to be lON to congratulate the shareholders
on the satisfactory ea, ore of the report, but the board
thought it desirable that the society should be at once coi
-
a-
verted into Sochlte Anonym., ening that as long as
remained a registered company the shares would not be
sufficiently saleable abroad. Be then referred to a map in
order to explain the pending concession of the San Raff solo
quarter of the tows, which extension, be said, promind toadd

in Europe, and the property as a whole one of the best.
The contracts had been taken below the estimates, and
up to this time there wee but one feeling in
Milan, which was that the undertaking must be a great
success. The board bad had to contend with difficulties
arising from new and competing *news, but within
be a
year from this time the undertaking woirld.doubtless in
good working order.
Mr. Faancrowr, who was alluded to by the chairman as
being well acquainted with the property of the company in
Milan, said before he let t that city recently there had been
150 applications from persons desirous of renting promisee,

remunerative.

The report stated that after payment of interest on

remaieder of " preliminary expenses," 4,2741. 31. 3d. ; to
add 26,000/. to the reserve fund, thus raising this

a dividend of 5 per cent., and a bonus of 5 per cent., which,

Jane last) for the first six months, will make together 15
per cent for the past year, and leave a sum of 6,144/.

count in addition to the rebate of 21,9511. lls. 6d. The
directors, settee on the resolutions passed by the share-
holders on the 16th December, 1864, have decided on issu-
ing, rateably among the proprietors, at 'premium of 30s. per
share, 20,000 shares of 251. each, being half the amount autho-
rised.

of improvement to be continued, bet he hoped
they would remain in as satisfactory a position

Buenos Ayres was extending, and there was a fair prospect
of sn increase of business and profit in both branches. The

The Australian Mortgage, Land and Finance Com-
pany (Limited) have declared a dividend at the
tax, f 121. 10s. per cent. per annum, free of income
tax, for the half-year ended the 30th June last,
payable on the 18th inst. A call of 2Lper share has

The prospectus of the Aug
10-Romano Water
Company(Limited) is issued, with a proposed capital
of 200,000, in 10,000 shares of 201. each. The
first issue, however, is to be limited to 7,500 shares,
and we are given to understand that the bulk of
these have already been subscribed for by the
shareholders in the Anglo-Itomano Gas Company,
a prosperous concern of old standing. The object
of the present company is to conduct to
Rome the water from some celebrated springs
at Arsoli, in accordance with an exclusive conces-
sion obtained from the Papal government. It
appears that one-half of the houses in Rome are
totally unsupplied with water. The prospectus
states that the concessionaires have expended large
sums of money in plans and studies, in considera-
tion of which, and for the concession, they are to
receive 30.0001., besides one-fourth of any surplus
profits after payment of a dividend of 10 per cent.
per annum to the shareholders.
Reference was made on the sth inst. to some im-
portant resolutions, to be submitted at an extraordi-
nary general meeting of the City of Milan Improve-
ments Company to-day, and these will be
found in our report of the meeting. The
object of reconstituting the company as
a Socidtd Anonyme, with shares to bearer, is
simply to remove the prejudice which exists
abroad against English mistered companies, and
so to facilitate the issue of the obligations of this
undertaking upon the various European markets.
The company will thereby be placed in command of
increased funds, raised by means which must re-
dound to the advantage of the shareholders, inas-
much as their profits will be enlarged. The
comany will thus be ebled to take
advantage of the valuable onaption embraced
in its concession of carrying out further
rAtilnentive work!, in the city of Milan, Of the
numerous projects recently created not one can be
said to occupy a more satisfactory position than
this company, whether regard be had to the full
confirmation of the original statements respecting
the value of the property, or to the high credit to
which the company has attained in Italy, in con-
sequence of the rapid progress of the works and the
general vigour of its proceedings. As regards the
profits in the future, it will be noticed that Mr.
Charles Barry, the eminent architect, fully endorses
the original estimate of a prospective dividend of 15
per cent. from that most solid of all sources of
revenue, freehold rents.
The half-yearly meeting of proprietors of the
Union Bank of London is called for January 10.
The half-yearly meeting of the London and Green-
wich Railway Company is called for the 9th Jan.,
' when a dividend on the original stock of V. 7s. 6d.
per cent. (or ss. 6d. per share), clear of income-tax,
will be recommended.
A call of 10s. is to be paid min the
shares of the
Suburban Hotel Company (Limited) by the 15th of
