The half-yearly meeting of this company wat!el4
yesterday:at the office. Moorgate-street; Mr. W. eta
throp in the chair. The report stated that the directors
bad to lament that several of the shareholders in arrest
of calls not only evade the payment thereof, but end It
your to frustrate the zealous efforts of the directors. .
was not until every effort to conciliate parties and to tat
duce those in arrear to pay up had failed of success tb:
the directors had been compelled, in justice to the g:
neral body, to institute legal proceedings against WI
shareholder in arrear whom legal proceedings could reftleo;
and they have no doubt that these proceedings will b
the desired effect. The whole of the works on the brit
line to Llanelly have been completed, with the e%iieef;
tion of a small portion near Loughor-bridge, ovucit
line is now ready to receive the permanent way, viwije
may be finished within six or eight weeks after the rap
are placed at the disposal of the contractor. p+
agreement has been entered into with Mr. W. Cotoeri,°e;
by which he allows a preference to all 01'4
shares in the company up to 8 per cent. obi/
his own shares; and up to 15 per cent. over all to
shares, with the exception of 2,000, which are to I°l4
dividend after the other shares receive 8 per cent.. shot,,.
the profits of the undertaking admit of it. The hti,
maining 9,970 shares which he holds are not to be en
of
tied to dividend until all the other shares in the cocePte'e
receive 15 per cent. He has also given up all 0,4:
di
claims alleged to be due by the company to him. 'jig
to have an annuity of 400/. per annum out of cer"
tolls on the Swansea line when completed and in 004
tion. The directors regret that arrears of calls to the
amount of 3,0001. still remain unpaid. They believe Oro
the sum of 2,0001. would enable them to complete
,nto
open the branch railway to Llanelly. The direewta
urge on the shareholders the necessity of an imale:011"
exertion to release the company from its present 0..0,
cial difficulties, and to bring the undertaking into Po'bo
fitable operation. The report of Mr. Atkinson, ;10
manager, stated that 460 tons of coal per day cottl° pcl
raised and conveyed on the line when completed, eto
that making allowance for the reduced price of cos'lt to
profit, after paying all expenses, would be soffielen-ite

at

their belief that the arrangement with Mr. Cauler°r/ibe
carried into operation, will be for the benefit of
shareholders. ortf
The CmAiartsrr, in moving the adoption of the reP 03,;
said from the present position of their affairs it W 3! are,
possible for them to go on much longer unless the 1010%
holders came forward to assist the directors by Pi*,,D 1
up the mills in arrear. The creditors of the canto
were not oppressive, and they were disposed to give tP:I,6
a little time, provided they saw a determination on
part of the shareholders to carry out the undertlAr
without any further delay. The directors intendeuio
circulate the report of the manager among certain Price,
acquainted with mining, with a view to obtain assistoftli,
and thereby save the property for those who had paid
all their calls. He believed that if their affairs were 11' •
in a healthy condition, the property would yield them.,,
good dividend. About 3,0001. would enable them WTI
on and bring their coal to market, for which they wo
obtain an immediate return. They
had got over
.1:5
greater part of the opposition and difficulties they
to contend against, and all they wanted now wee P
niary assistance to render their property produotive• the
After a short discussion the report was adopted Leto
retiring directors, Messrs. Winthrop and Cazalett,
re-elected, and a vote of thanks was passed to the ohs
man, which concluded the proceedings.
