PROPOSED MOT SPRINGS COMPANY.

(uv telkokaph.— press association.)

Wellington, this day. A meeting of gentlemen was held at the Chamber of Commerce yesterday afternoon to take into consideration the best means to de velop the Hot Springs and wonders of Now Zealand. Mr E. Hamlin, M.H.R., was voted to the chair. A letter from Mr Howard Vin cent was rood, in which he stated: "1 am unable to be present, owing to my leaving Wellington to-day. 1 am dceidgly of opinion that if Wniwcra, Oiiinomutu, and Woi raki woro taken in hand by a strong company and properly developed, many thousand, of person, could bo induced lo visit the colony from Australia and Europe," About liftcen wore present, including Messrs Larmich, Brown, Hamlin, and Col. Fraser, M.H.R's, Hon. .1. Williamson and Campbell, M. N.C.s, and Bastings, ex M.H.R.

Mr Gli All AM, in submitting his proposal for torn ing a company to tako over his Hot Springs property, said ho had been induced to take this siep by Mr Howard Vincent, li.to Director of tho Criminal Investigation Depart ment of London, who is now on a visit to the colony. Ho explained at length tho whole of the properties and the wonders they possessed. Ho referred to tbe slate of the roads leading to some ot! the terraces, and argued that tho tourist class of the community was not repre sented 111 Parliament. For £150 these reads could be placed in a good slate of repair. Ho wassuro that if tho properly were taken over, those who took a liberal interest would roup a rich reward, us the affair could not fat. to be it great success This property would largely iiicrcustuu value when the North Ish n 1 main trunk railway was completed, and that day, he believed, was not far distant. The tourist clement is a very strong one, owl now ih-it the Government were undertaking largo wi rks for coal, harbours, t to., something should bo dono towards opening up and developing theso springs, which possess such remarkable curative properties.

Mr i-UTLiiK, who had been at tho Springs, bore te-timoiiy lo the value of the Springs at Wairaki, and said that, he had gone there su(For ing from rheumatism and imaolu to walk, but after bathing li weeks in tho Springs he feit great relief, and now bud quite rocovored.

Mr Hammn thought the question was of colonial int- rest, and should not bo met by local prejudice, lib was positive that If steps we're taken to odverti.c the Springs throughout tbe world, thousands would-Mock to them. It.was impossible for the pen of man to doscribo (no mutter how imaginative tho mind) the pro perties which Mr Graham had brought under their notice.

Mr \V. L. Tt;AVI-i:s thought when a gentle man camo before tbe publio with un under tnking of this kind, ho should be prepared with tho amount, of capital required, the estimated revenue to be derived, the whole particulars of tbo property, its capabilities, and in point of fact,all information which intending I.peculators expecud. Kepi}ing to Mr Travels, Mr Graham said the net profits ot Wniwcra last year wero about fii'.OOO. This amount would be increased to £(1,000 if v fast steamer wero purchased 10 run down Ironi Auckland in on hour und ii-half. The Lake I louse .property last your gavo a profit of £!tto, und this amount could he extended to £-\OBO per annum if certain additions wero made. Tho Walruki property was not jet bringing In any return : he wns simply planting trco-t and .otherwise improving his property. Hodwe'.t at digth on the beauties of Wiiiraki, and said nowhere in 1 he world was there such a b_.Ui as that p'acc posscsted. First you swam in hot wotu-.and then gradually got imo cold. Theoapilalof tliepruposed company was_3loo,ooo. and. ho was willing lo bo paid tho amount at which the properties wero valued by imtnrlial judges. He valued the Springs at tOO.OOO. but 'then thero might be somo gentlemen who did not think they w- re worth more than £30,000

; • Mr Tr. -Vl.ns suggested an adjournment until tho-propa.als had been thoroughly ventilated. The meeting was adjourned until a futuro day to be named by Mr Graham, and no resolu tions were passed. The following is the resolution which it had been int.nded to move:—"That this meeting is of opinion that the proposal to form a Joint Stock Company, with limited liability, for tho purchasing at a valuation of tho several proper ties owned by Ulr Hubert Graham, at the Hot Springs, in this Island, is into that presents a fair and legitimate investment for capital, and appears deserving the attention of investors and tho public generally."
