f'fa moving the adoption of tha roport, the Chairman said he regtetted very much that Is was unablo to present a more encourag ing-report; than ihat now in their hands, ftkadnot bean tho good fortune of the ' Company1 to find in the coal enterprise a Profitable field of operations. The causes t|f this were' various, but chiefly arose from jap 'fact ' that for many years past . tha seams of coal at the Bay of Islands jwebeen disturbed and greatly injured as \i the ease of working by bauds v/hich . occasionally divide a seam into two or three Bmaller Beatn3. Tho reports from the ■ mine were to the effect that if there is any change at all, the seam is looking leas faulty, and that portion of the eeam uninfluenced by the bands to which he had just referred is per haps a litt!e thicker. Bo need scarcely say that the greatest economy bad been exercised at the mine during tho past half-year. No expenditure had been in curred that could have been avoided. The result was, however, aa he had stated, show ing a very small profit. They might remem ber that lor some timo thero had ap peared in the accounts the sum of £2,000 as a reserve fund. This sum had now boon written off in consequonco of the loss on the '.. barges, most of which had bien disposed of at the best prices possible, these, however, leaving a considerable loss on tho amounts at which they stood in tho books of the | Company, The very small amount of profit they had made had been neutralised or absorbed by way of writing off a certain amount for deprecia tiqa, Ov<ing to tha unproiitable nuiure of the' enterprise,' the directors had not been jjble fbr the last threo years to write off pujh for depreciation, but had been Satisfjed by keeping the plant and mine in faifwofking prder. They I's'i now, how- WBr, thp necessity for adopting what is a Wise and proper course in Connection with all coal enterprise?, vie., the writing off »n amount fordepreciation. This had been done, the total amount therefore showing a loss of £266. It was a very ui>forr,iiT>«*°

tmog ior a young country like this, whore j the prosecution of industrial en terprires \yap cf sach necessity.that a coal enterprise like tftat' 61 the Bay of Islands Coal Company should be for bo long a period unprosperoup. He found that since the commencement of the Company in 1868, the amount paid in wages had been £201,502; capital paid by Ohar3hol(Jcrs, £28,767; dividends received ferthe e]iarahdlders; £10,971. Tb,w latter JBm had b,een appropriated in occasional dividends of 10 per cent., but at times intervals of three or four years passed . during which the shareholders did not receive anything. The total dividends represented something over 2 per cent, per annum on tho capit'il. The Company's property consisted of thifd class lands, and represented an original value of £700, while the Government had actually received royalty to tho extent of £3,173, leaving £5,948 still due to them. It wiß to be regretted that tho results were not such as to 'ba encouraging to the shareholder?, or conducive to the pro secution of similar enterprises, and all the more fib because of the fact that apart from the West Coast coals, the Bay of Islands coal was the only coal yet discovered in the ftolony of a bituminous character, and therefore suitable for ocean going steamers. jjUthongh the results were discouraging the shareholders would have the satMaction wknowing that they were patriotically pro ttotinga nßfional enterprise, and that tho jWmgn were -recaiying their wagea.; He fiontsaded that the figures ho had quoted, Bofariis this pompany was concerned, es Plotted tho popular falhcy that capital 6»t a great deal more than its ware. They found in this case that labour got the lion's share, and capital a very small share while the owners of the land wnentted to the extent of four times the original value of their property. Ho hoped «» enterprise would be one of commercial and political importance in the future of MBconntry, and that they would fight on «long as possible. '5,,™ seconded tho resolution, and to l • i while lt was not vory gratifying X MoV that ;there was no return; on i, gj5?P-ltal- it waa at least satisfactory to no that the workmen were being paid for Kir-!! services, and that there was a posd 8W °-}^ no£ a brighter future; +oe adoption of the report and accounts lyas agreed to, and the meeting terminated.
