In regard to the future conduct of the works, the Directors, with
a view to render the future calls as little onerous as possible, pro-
Pose to devote the whole o the available resources of the Company
to the construction of the works on the main line from Skiptou up-
wards, in Etat a manner as to bring successive portions of the main
line, is extension of the Leeds and Bradford Railway, into profit-
able operation at the earlist possible period ; a course which a pro-
posed arrangement with the Midland Company, superseding the
neessity of a large outlay for working plant, renders still more de-
sirable•— and they are of opinion that, without inconveniently
pressing o❑ the Shareholders, portions of the main line may be thus
successively opened as far as Ingleton I.efore the summer of 1849,
and as far as Kirby Lousdale before the following autumn ;—thus
bringing the North-Western Line within n.;ne miles of the Lancaster
and Carlisle Railway at 3.lllnthorp ; and placing the West Riding of
Yorkshire, and the Eastern and Midland Counties, with the excep-
tion of that interval, in direct railway communication vvi.* the lake
district, Carlisle, and Glasgow.
The Directors, having personally visited the whole of the works
in progress, have satisfied themselves of the forward state of large
portions of the line and of the excellent and inexpensive character
of the works :—there are no engineering difficulties of any kind ;
and, with the exception of the Ingleton and Dillicar Viaducts, no
Works that are not of the most ordinary character.
From the contracts which have been already entered into, the
Directors are in a position to state positively that the whole line
will be constructed considerably within the Parliamentary esti-
mates ;—the average cost of the works at present under contract
and executed amounting to 9,0011. per mile, exclusive of land, rails,
Parliamentary and current expenses ; and to 141,1101. per mile, in-
cluding every passible contingent expense.
The Directors have already, more than once, stated their opinion,
founded oa particular local inquiry, that the registered shares are in
the hands of a most respectable, wealthy, and influential body of
Shareholders; they are fully confirmed in this conclusion : and they
think it right to add, to their former expressions of opinion in respect
to the Register, the important fact, that the average hold of each
Shareholder is the Company does not exceed 30 shares.
The Directors consider it at present premature to fix the number
of Calls to be made during the ensuing year, or their anioant, but
will be prepared to enter into this matter at the Half-yearly Meeting
in February.
The Direetors propose to continue to allow Interest after the rate
of 41. per cent. per asnura on paid-up Calls. The account of any
Shareholder who may happen to be in arrear will be debited with in-
terest at the rate of o per cent. per annum, from the date at which
the payment shall have become due, and credited with 4:per cent.
/tom the time only when the payment shall be made.
