AN IMPORTANT ENTEIrRISE-SuGAR Re
FINING IN RICuMoND.-Sumc Of the most
prominent and cnterprlslng business men
OF Richmond have recently formed Il COM
pany and secured an act of incorporation
with view to carrying on Il branch oftradc
which will, we feel assured, be OF great
benefit to the city and profit TO themselves.
We refer TO the business OF sugar refining,
which is soon to be commenced i'll what Is
known rs Meyers building, on the east
front Of Seventeenth street and on the
south front of the Dock.
The building thus designated is peculiarly
suited for the purpose. That part facing
east is forty-three feet front and one hum
dred and forty deep. and five stories high,
and the part facing south Is cighty-lour feet
front and one hundred feet deep, and two
stories high. These buildings are OF enor-
nous strength throughout, and it Is in
tended to convert them into 4 sugar
refinery, II charter having been already
obtained for the purpose. The company
have engaged the services Of Mr.. John
Meyer, Il gentleman of great experience,
both in this country and i'll Europe, i'll the
SUGAR refining business, and llc says that he
never saw Il location or Il building so adlni-
rably adapted for the purposes contcm-
plated rs the structures wc have described.
The facilities for the business cannot hc cx-
ccllcd. On the east and south sides vessels
can come up TO the very doors, and immc-
tliltcly in the rear Of the east building the
track connecting the Danvilic and York
River railroads will pass, and the track
connecting the hesapeakc with the con-
ncclion of the Dmlvilc and York River
will be OH Eighteenth street. 1t has
been arranged between the company
and the railroads that there shall be
in the yard i'll the rear Of the cast build
ing, and at its very door, il turnout for the
spccial accommodation Of the refinery, SO
that what between the water facilities III
the immediate front and the railroad tacili-
ties in the immediate rear and nci"hhor-
hood the company will have transportation
accommodation uncquallcd anywhere. Ii
is proposed 10 put up the machinery III
both buildings, but the boilers will be Ill
the rear and on the margin OF Shocknc
creek. Another advantage this location
possesses is its close proximity to i
ncver-iailing supply of water i'll case OF IRE.
As sugar refining requires clear Water, 1t Is
intended to sink i well 30 feet in diameter
I'm the ward in the rear of the building. This
will be probably some 81 or 40 feet deep.
1t is intended, however, to sink it until The
coolest water, and an abundance OF 1t, Is
reached and there is no doubt Of getting
it. The company intend to get rs much ol
their machinery as possible made, here.
The works, when once started, VIII give
continual employment, directly ana lhol-
