Companys Intentions and Expectations
English Capital Largely Interested.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, March a4.-One of
the largest.if not the largest of incorpo-
rated enterprises ever entered into in
the south, has just been organized in
this city under the laws of Tennessee.
1t Is to be known as The Corporate
Town Co. of Knoxville. Tenn" 1t has
for its object the foundation of a great
manufacturing city in the healthy high
lands of East Tennessee, which are SO
wealthy in timber, iron, coal and other
mineral aud agricultural resources, suf-
ticient to support large industrial popu-
lations. The capital stock is $40. .OOO,-
300; shares 500, distributed in small
holdings throughout the entire country.
Two hundred thousand dollars of this
amount is already subscribed and paid
in. The company will control millions
for purposes of development, such as
building and owning street ra lroads,
gas works, furnaces, electric lights and
telephones, and homes for artisans of
very description.
The history OF the Middlesborough
town may be taken as illustrative of
the future possibility of this new VEN
ture on such n large basis. The town
of MiddlesbOrough two years ago had
only fifty inhabitants and four houses.
1t now has 1000 inhabitants and the
company owns property to the value
of millions. The stock of the Middles-
borough company sold two years ago
in the English market at five pounds
sterling per share. 1t now commands
Els. Their property is situated near
Cumberland Gap, where English capi-
talists have invested within the last
two or three years $4,000, 900. 1t is in
this vicinity principally that The Cor
porate Town Co, of Tennessee" will
organize and develop a new industrial
town
The president of this new enterprise
is Hon. Robert p. Porter, superintend-
ent of census, and ex-Congressman Me-
COmas. of Maryland, is vice-president.
The directors are United States Sena-
