RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE,

LANCASHIRE AND YORKSHIRE.

The report of the directors states that the amount of ca-
pital chargeable to revenue on 31st Dec. last, exclusive of
the leased lines, is as follows :—£12,093,591 consolidated
stock, £3,006,386 guaranteed and preference, and £4,575,145
loans; together, £19,675,125. The expenditure charged to
capital for the half-year amounts to £157,203, of which
£88,921 is for new lines. The receipts on revenue account
luring the past half-year amount to £971,509, against
£903,991 for the corresponding half of 1862, showing an in
crease of £67,518. The expenses amounted to £412,811,
against £399,410, for the corresponding half of 1862, show-
ing an increase of only £13,401. The balance of revenue
applicable to the payment of dividend on the ordinary stock
of the company is £312,826, and out of this amount the
directors recommend the proprietors to declare a dividend
at the rate of 41 per cent. per annum, less income tax, and
to carry forward the balance of £25,603 to the next account.
Notwithstanding the continued limitation of manufacturing
operations in Lancashire, there has been an increase of the
receipts of the railway, amounting to £67,518, over the
amount earned in the corresponding period of 1862, a result
which, under the circumstances, is considered by the direc-
tors highly satisfactory. The permanent way is considered
by the engineer to be in good condition, and the heads of
departments also report the rolling stock under their charge
to be in good repair. The estimate of the probable amount
which will be required during the current half-year for the
extension and enlargement of stations, for rolling stock, and
for the purchase of land is £120,000. The Oldham, Roch-
dale, and Royton Railway has been used for traffic to a
limited extent during the past half-year. The construc-
tion of the new line from Salford to ictoria is progressing
satisfactorily, and the directors are making arrangements for
the enlargement and improvement of the Victoria Station,
which the opening of the new line will render absolutely
necessary. The directors have agreed to recommend the
proprietors to subscribe £50,000 towards the capital of
£200,000 required for docks at Feetwood, The share capi-
tal proposed to be raised by this company under the five
bills now before Parliament amounts to £655,000.
