AGENTS.

In London—Messrs. J. Henry Schroder and Co.
In Havana—The Bank of Commerce, Francis Fraser,
Esq., Manager.
This Company was formed in 1857, obtained its conces-
sion the same year, and in 1861 the main road was corn-
Plated from Regis, in the Bay of Havana, to Matanzas, a
dietande of 54 miles. -
Since then branch lines of considerable value have been
constructed.
' The cost of construction to this date is £1,056,000 • of
_and
this sum £448,000 was raised upon shares subscribed in the
£250,000 was raised in London, in 1861, by a first mort-
gage loan, bearing 7 per cent. interest, and repayable by
operation of a sinking of £25,000 per annum, com-
mencing 1867, which will redeem the entire loan in 1876.
£lOO,OOO was similarly raised in 1863 for the construction
of two branch roads, secured by a second mortgage on the
ttOad, and guaranteed by the Bank of Commerce, repayable
03, the operation of a sinking fund of £4,000 per annum,
coMMencing in 1873.
A considerable portion of the remainder of the capital
has been supplied from time to time out of the earnings of
the road.
The results of the undertaking have been very satisfac-
tory, and show the following returns :-
1862 Gross receipts £100,700
1863

And 1865 gross receipts fromIJanuary to June £93,000
Against same period, 1864 82,000
The Bay of Havana and Matanzas Railroad Company
has now effected the purchase of the Coliseo Railroad,
running from Matanzas to Bemba, a distance of 35 miles, a
l'ery valuable road, and of immense importance to the Bay
cl Havana and Matanzas Company, inasmuch as it is in
direct junction with that road at Matanzas, traversing a
district rich in sugar produce ; and being connected at
enaba with the Cardenas and Jucaro Railroad, becomes a
section of the central road of the island, which will very
shortly reach Villa Clara by the completion of the Car-
denas and Jucaro Railroad.
z, The returns of the traffic of the Coliseo Railroad are as

1860 Gross receipts £49,100
1862 7l 71
1864
,200
And the returns of 1865, from Jan. to 20th 71May...£49,000
Against 1864, same time 45, 000
, To complete this purchase, the Bay of Havana
and
4atanzas Company desire to raise a loan in London of
t 400,000, bearing interest at 7 per cent. per annum, pay-
able half-yearly in London.
As security for this loan, the Bay of Havana and Malan-
-4.s Railroad Company will effect a first mortgage on the
Coliseo Railroad, its rolling stock, appurtenances, and all
f°Perties ; and also a mortgage on the Bay of Havana and
stanzas Railroad and its branches, subject only to the
existing mortgages of £350,000, of which the first mort-
gage of £250,000 will be paid off entirely in 1876, by the
e°Peration of the sinking fund which commences in 1867.
The property thus mortgaged is as follows :
The Coliseo Railroad to be purchased out of the proceeds
01 this loan, producing a gross revenue in 1864 of £71,200.
, The Bay of Havana and Matanzas Railroad and its
?ranches, costing £1,056,000, producing a gross revenue in
'864 of £143,000 (subject only to the above-mentioned
Illortgages).
It will be noticed that the revenue of the Bay of Havana,
41M Matanzas, as well as that of the Coliseo Railroad, has
°r some years been steadily increasing at the rate of 20 per
cent. per annum, and it is beyond a doubt that the amalga-
Illation of the two roads, by a natural increase of traffic and
a large saving of expenditure in the administration, will
l'roduce a far larger revenue, and may be fairly estimated
kr the coming year at £250,000 gross, or fully £lOO,OOO
het revenue.
Por the repayment of this loan a sinking fund is lir-
tanged for, whereby £20,000 is to be paid off annually,
either by the purchase of bonds or public drawing, its ope-
ration to commence in 1877, by which time the first mort-
gage loan of X 250,000 will be entirely redeemed.
