INDIAN TRAMWAY.

An extraordinary meeting of this company was held yes-
terday at the office, Moorgate-street, Sir Macdonald Ste-
phenson in the chair.
Mr Scott, the secrchary, having read the notice convening
the meeting,
The CHAIRMAN said they had to pass a formal resolution
under the provisions of the Act, in order to confirm the re-1
solution adopted at the last meeting. He then moved that
the following resolution be confirmed :—" Resolved, that
the deposits received from persons willing to subscribe to
the new capital be returned to them, and that the capital of
the company for the present be fixed at a sum not exceed-
ing £100,000."
Mr NORTON seconded the motion, and it was carried
unanimously.
. A Shareholder feared that Sir C. Wood was making the
same mess of their undertaking as of the other Indian mat-
ters referred to in the newspapers.
The CuAritmax explained that the company had sent two
missions to India, and all the minor Governments were
quite ready to go into the business with the company, but
on their return to England they found the procrastean sys -
tem was to be adopted. The directors could not help that
state of things. There was no doubt it was being carried
out in ignorance of the wants of the country. The position
of the company was very satisfactory, and they believed the
line now making would pay well. They had already lost
several years, and they could have made 1,000 miles of
tramway while they had been making the 17 miles,
The meeting then separated.
