He thought tbat the ratep yers were indebVd to Cr Boardman for the openiog up of this ( question, and he felt sure tbat tbo popul >r , opinion w:n that the account! sbou d be ' put in a cvar and legal foim. Cr Thompson hop:d that Cr Boardmau would-withd'aw his amendment. At ifto s,mc time, he had to lfaack Cr X>evore for his clear jire eut..tiou ol tie leg '.1 aspect of the questioo. Withregaid to, the supply of water, he had s lways maintained Hint the Council should not seek to make a profit out of the wdter, and in Majo,- P. acock'a I time he bad declared a;a!n and a^i>'n that when they had v profit in areiv fiom the i water ihere should be a coire pondi-g ro i auction made to consumers, 'i hat j-o it'on ,he held still, and when Cr Bonrdmao moved for the applic .tioa of any soijjlus in ! such a way, he would ia found h'avti'y supporting him. Bat he felt po itive that theic wa-no such surplus and tbence he was constrained to oppose Ihe amendment. Kveu assuming, however, thut a surp'u did I exist, he consider' d the present time iuop ' portuuc and undesirable lor rjisbg such a • matter. j Or Waddel als^ expressed hh obligations jto Cr Devore for his jufoi motion with I i' pprct to the cou se of legislation. Ujon | the matter at i he held peculiar : opinions, viz., that the consumer w.s not houud to fay for the di charge of public purpose, end when Ci Eoardman prov.-d • that there wa< ana;tunlsuiplu>, undmov d ./fora pioporiioua'e i eduction of the water j cliar^' , lie would 'C found suppor, ing him. ' At present, however, wi'h minus deficits, and a lo n staring them <n the facf, he wns , not prepared to deal with imag;na y sui- I plus . Cr MontagJe, for reasons similar to those stated by the two preceding speakers, _»n» nounc d bis determination to vote against I the amendineu*. Like thutn, he did not I believe theie w s any surplus at a'l, and,, even if there were, he ppint d out that it would be almost wholy absorb d by chaig s which should properly bj m<de a^aiust the waterworks account, but which had tut been made hitherto. He would not to for dealing with any mjthual surplus. ■ , ( r Gaiiett did tot prof»m to have any knowledge of account-, but still ; ho felt clear that bis thank* were due 'o Cr Boardman for sounding ih: keyuote in this matter, and opening up a di cussioo. upon the accoun's wlrch covld not fail to be productive of good. It wa quite evident from what had been said on either fide tli t the accounla bad been bad'y k>" t. in the past, uud he hop< d tbat they would ' c more simply and str ti jhtforwaidly k( pt in future. I He could not possibly undeisrand ho*, if there tva< only an appa'cnt and uoi a r-a\ " surplus to any account, thai there w s any i da- ger of i's bcin^ appropriate*l; hd in I faut this talk about apptieit deficit and 'surpluses niyst'fi d bim. For pll ihar, j no did not approve of the fo m 5n which the amendment »ai put, and ! he trusted tbat Cr Boordm n weld be persuaded to withdraw it. Cr AicMo admittrd that the accounts had not b(cp so well kept ia the p>'t a< tbey should have been, be deiil d Ihe'e wag any surolus on waterworki a'count to be" used. Hefuithercont nded that the Coui cil had always shewu a disposition to reduce | the water charges propaitiona* ')y with the ' iucioasing income derivftble tbc e^rom. It waa only a year sinca a re'luction io t the extent of one-third had been roa^e, and hatdly breathing time had been olluwed them tiuca. After sdgroai'iiog as mere clap-trap Cr Boardman's reference to thimble reging in connection with the ac counts. Cr Aickin concluded by sayin? t iat they should rather ba actuated by a de ire to' do their duty honourably and fe irlersly than strive to court popn'ar appl*u c by making wholesale reductions of requ red chargel. Crl'hillipp' thought with o*her council" I low that had the accounts been kept as i'r B6ardman wished (aud which ho hoped would be the mode ob ervd in Cuture) iußtcad of a present suplus being show a on wato works account', there wonld be a ve.y large deficit. If considera ion were made for depreciation of plint aloiiL-, a very groat difference would bo shewn, Ho (Jid not think that r Boatdman wa' entitled to the praise whicU somo Councillors had lavMird upon him,for he had simply endeavoured to shew '.hittha members of the old Council had i,ot been so mindful of the public interests an he himsolf was, and y^tit was by the old Couucil that »ll reductions so far had O.eu Ci kackechnie said that to bis mind they were to be guided in allfjuesliout of fin.iicj by the Act of 1879, for although it did not expiossly repeal the .^c-of 1876, it did so iiuf.lK«ly by this -ctof 1879 The loans were cousol dated, and the whole revenue of the city was made liible for the paymeut of i-iter -t, £15,003 per anrum, aud sinkiug fund, £1650, per anuum addi'iqnal. 't *&% exactly as it a mau guv these mur giges to ~B and BO respectively, which were after wards consolidated. A.auiplus of .£2O was stiown upon one property, und aduflcitof correspoudiug amount upon a second pro perty, but it win quite imniittcrial to the creditors out of which fund ihe annual interest of £100 was p iid, for all the proper tie- wero equally chug able tor it. Cr Crowther claimed the credit along with Cr Waddel for securing the first reduction that wjb made in the water ctufgrs, and although Cr Aickin took a deal of praise io himself iv that matter, it was bit;belli-f tbat on the occa ion referred to, Cr Aickin actually voted against the proposed re duction.—[Or Aickin : I was not then in the Council. ]-tle did notbelieve that theamount mentioned oy the Mayor as to ba set a ide for depreciation of plant, viz , £1,030, wt* sufficient, and indeed he felt convinced that it was not more thin half enough when he rcouemberi d that the plant was only to bo received at the cud of 25 year?. ' He was auxious tj. reduce the water charges whenever they could with propriety be re duce 3j but he was ceriuinly bot sicing to favour a lo ing leduelion to gnUCy non consumers, who would n^t * ike the water until they could get it at considerably Ices than cost price. He felt that Cr Board, man had done a good thing in raising a dis cussion upon the question at the present time, but still he was decided to votj for the motion. ' Cr Fleming twitted the Mayor and h'«i supporters with haviug failed t > prove that there was not a profit od the water, aud Cr Itoarilman with having fuled to demonstrate clearly his case. Betwei n the two he wes in such a fog that he felt inclin d to give a silent vote. Corr-ct iinanc'ng, ia his ' opinion, shou'd be such as would show no ■ apparent deficiti or suiplu.63, but only everythiog that was real and demonstrable. ,Cr Boardmau asked if the following pro position could be accepted as an amend ment, viz. :-" That the tre surer be in siructrd to keep the i.eoount > of the Council ia strict conformity v ith law, debiting a id croniting c .oh account in accordance with the provisions thereof."/ The Mayor replied that he could not ac cept it in this torm either, Cr Boardman thereupon withdrew his amendment, with the object of re-intro ducing bis proposition at a more conve nient opportunity. Leave wa' then givan for the withdrawal of the amendment. The Mayor said in reply that it migh.be admitted that the accoanfs were not iv perfect form, but they had Rrratly im» nrov.d, and were iropioviug every year. Ie wii' raid they were complicated, but according to his expericne; they were more easily understood and less complicated than ' those of any cjrpi>ration which he bad yet looked into. They ceitaioly btou.^ht out results\; very clearly. As to ap parent balance) where accounts had to be divided, it wat not until all the,, balance! were brought together tbat actual result was n scertained. It was the ' aams in large mercantile firms. But it was plain that the prorsionj of the old Consoli* datiun Act abolished speoial' rates, a. d g l.noie Acts which provided for special rate-t i wore virtually abolished. He wa agreed wi:h tbo.ii who coatended that tbe Council i fihould not make a profit.upon the water, '•ut n < cost could not ba ascertained until i nic quo-tons of interest and deprt elation I were taken into account, tteterriai; to the leqitl aspect of the matter, he : maintained that the Various ace >unts ihad beea. kept stiict'y separate'us .re. I quired by law.. In respect -t scveial ! charges, the accounts hitherto had not been quite tegular, but th<- Financial Committee I lnul rccomiiieudi.il «, change in these details, and he would not say that Cr Bo irdmau's action liad not influenc-'d the onmiitt e'B decision. . . The motion was then put aad agreed to. Finance Committee, i The Mayor then moved the adoption of the Finance Committee's report (published by us last week). Cr Thompson took exception to the proposal to reduce the special rate. If a jceductiou was to be made, it thould be on the cost of the water to consumers. Cr Boar inian took a similar objection for the same rcu&on. He, would submit a state ment on Thur day rcxt showing how the rate to 'consuaim could bur duced SO per cent. The water charges could be reduced 20 per cent,) viz., from 101 to 8d in the £,

The New Zeaiand Ikon akd Steel Com pany, Limited, is organised to manufacture Bar and Pig Iron and VViro from tho iron sand doposits of tho West Coast, by moans of the patonts owned by Messrs John Chambora and . G. H. Gardnor. I 1 Tho pi-aotloabillty of those patonts having L been .fully proved by the works at prosont in 1 oporatlon at Onehuupta, thcro remain but two „ points to be considered—viz., the oost of manu | faeturing and tho market for the product. I THE COST. > In estimating tho comparative co^t ef manu y facturing iron hero and in England there are three items to bo considered, viz : labour, coal, and raw material. I The raw material is almost a nominal cost to } us. The cool will cost no moro here than in \ England, for it 1b intended to use only gai for all heating purposes in tho works, which can be produced by means of gas generators from slack or any brown coal at a far lower oost than the same amount of heat can be obtained from burning coal. Labour is then the only item which will cost more hcro-than in England, and • we have to consider what advantage we possess to counterbalance this greater cost. These advantages consist (Ist) in situation, by which we save 10 per cent, on the Home cost which is absorbed in commission, insurance, exchange and interest, and outward freight, as tho freight from Auokland or Onohunga to dif ferent places in the Colony will bo no moro than the. charges in England in bringing the iron from tho mills by rail pnd oartago* and shipping charges in London: (2nd) in our procoss, by I which wa save coat of fettling (or wrought iron scrap), which in puddling from pig has to be put into tho furnace, and the cost of making tho pis; and tho waste of tho same in puddling. This is a most important item in our favour, and would be alone Bulilciont to counterbalance the greater coit of labour, for by the patents under which thia Company will work the same result is obtained from iron sand as Js obtained from pig iron, thus saving tho expense of making the pig. The difference in cost between pig Iron in Kngiand, suitable for making good bar iron, and iron sand at Onehunga being fully 35s per ton in our favour. If, then, wo take the amount of saving which we have by our process and situation to countor b.iluneo the greater cost of wages in this Colony,.wo have :— Ist —10 per cent, on the Homo coat—say £7« UI 2nd—Saving in freight .. _ _ _ 25/ Srd— Sa^ngof fettlin-j - 3/ 4th— Saving of cO3tof making tho pig _ 35/ 6th— Saving of manufacturers profits .. II 81/ Tho total coat of latour in manufaotarlng pin iion into finished bars in England is under 35s per ton, so that if the cost of labour here is even as high as 60s there remains ft largo margin ot nroflt. It h estimated that tho total cost of the oe3t finished bar iron at Onehunga will bo un der £6 per ton. THE MARKET. The production of cheap iron opens co largo a field of industry that it is impc :siblo to estimate the future of this trado. It is an undoubted fact that bar iron can be made from iron sand mot cheaply than from any other ore, ■ • The supply of raw material is'unllmitod, and New Zealand should become one of the largest iron producing countries In tho world. The kany branches ot manufacture, of which Cheap iron is the prime essential, will no doubt spring into life now that both iron and coal may bo obtained in Now Zealand, and with the supply so will tho demand increase. The amount of Iron imported into Australasia in 1882 was as follows :— Australia.New Zealand. Tl. Tons. Tons. Bar Iron .. „ 44,600 0.250 63.750 Fencing Wire .. 40,003 9,500 49,500 Galvanised Iron u 87,080 8.100 45,080 Pig Iron .. «. 24.6C9 4,0!i0 28 600 • Plate Iron.. .. 9,250 1,000 10,250 Wiro Nails .. 6,753 2,750 9.500 Hoop Iron.. _ 3,750 850 4,600 Sheotlron.. _ 8.603 000 4,108 These figures do not include Tasmania or West Australia. Tho present cost of South Staffordshire iron, which is universally need in theso colonies, ia ffl 10s, f.0.b., London, costing delivery in New Zeiland about £3 10s, which is ono of tholowoßt prices for many years, owing to tho deprcßalon ■ of tho Iron industries in England. 1 1 Auckland Iron at £8, f.0.b., would thus keep ' out tho Imported iron, and leavo a large profit . to the manufacture).?. It H also proposed to manufacture tho iron into a fow artioles whioh are largely used, such as fencing standprCs, fish plates, railway spikes, &c, &c, on which a larger profit can be made, t Fencing standards coit in the South Island ' about £11 per ton, and are ucod to the extent of > over 8000 tons per annum, and in othor linos large quantities can be cold at bettor profits than can bo made on bar iron. , Fencing wire being protected by a duty of £1 t per ton, and by a largo coat of importing, offers ! a profitable field of Industry; and it is proposed • to add th'a lino to tho products of tho Company 1 as Boon as tho abovo operations are at work. The slag from tho puddling furnaces, if it con tains a sufficiently high percentage of iron, will 1 be smelted in an ordinary blast furnace, and . run into pig Iron, thus utilising all the waste [ products. 1 Sydney and Melbourne will tako a largo Quantity Of iron from us, ns low freights aro easily obtained to thoce colonies. ■ i It is expected that New Zealand iron can be ■ sent to England and the United States at very . profitable pricei, as tho iron mado from sand In . the United States by this proces-i is found to be of so superior a quality for making high-priced steel that the wholo of Jt is con sumed by that branch of industry, and the prico paid would yield us a large profit. India, China, Japan, and San Francisco open flolds for exportation, which wo may shortly ■ hope to compete for, as our location is moat favourable for them as a basis of supplies, and at certain seasons of the year freight can bo had at a merely rate; and a speedy enlargement of , tho works, as tho requirements of tho trade may demand, i:i provided for in tho 28,000 unallotted sharei. These sbsros, whon allotted, will be offered to the stockholders at par in proportion to the Bhares held. ' This Company will take over the concessions f obtained by Messrs Chambers and Gardner, . consisting of 1000 acres of land, and four miles 1 of fore3horp on the North Head and two miles ot foreihore on the South Head of Manukau Harbour, and three miles of foreshore at Tara naki, whloh ■will Bupply all tho iron Band nocos sary for many years to come. No other place on the weßt coast offers such facilities for cheap cool and ready transportation of tho finished prdduot as" Onehunga; as, from its location we con ship from either the East or West Coasts, and from the North Head the sand can be put • Into barges at any state of the tide or weather, without going ou fliide the Heads, and brought to our own wharf. These considerations make these concessions I naTticularly valuable, while the lease at Tara ' nakiwill be available for the manufacture of charcoal iron, as a good quality of charcoal can be obtaint I in that distriot at a reasonable price. ' The NeW Zealand Government has offered a bonus of £1,000 for tho first 200 tons of ■wrought • iron blooms.and an additlonal£l,oOofor the nrat 200 tons of pig iron, manufactured from iron ! gand, whloh this Company,will seouro. The patents owned by Messrs Chambers and' Gardner are 30 essential to the manufacture of iron by the direct process, that it is impossible to manufacture iron from iron sand in payable quantities without them, thus securing to thq Company a virtual monopoly. ' ' Of the first allotment of shares, Messrs Cham bers and Gardner will receive for their New . Zealand patents 3,000 shares paid-up to £4, and in future allotments of shares up to 40,000 in all, 25 per oent. of euch. allotments paid up to SA, 9,000 shares are at present offered to the public, payable as follows:—10s on application, 10s on 1 allotment, .and 20s at intervals of 3, 6, and 0 months, the remaining 20s at an interval of not ! less than three months after the last call, but it is not anticipated that it will be necessary to call up more than £i per share. S In view of the many advantages we possess— a large and constantly growing market at our doors, and separated by bo many miles from its present base of supplies, a practically unlimited ' supply of iron sand, suitable coal at a low price ) olose at hand; and the cheapness of our working ' —we have no hesitation in offering the shares of this Company an one of the safest and most grofltablo investments whioh has ever been efore the public
