Turner, the other delegates, were not present, ldr Calder, though not:a delegate. had Phe meeting. and the report presentâ€" ed, had not been satisfactory to the delegates, though hopes are entertained that the new Board may succeed in mauking a better showing, Mt Jackson had a lengtby report: setting forth in detail the proceedings of the meeting as they struck him, and certainly he had been very unfavorably impressed, hoth retrospectively and prospectiyely. By is report there seemed to be trouble in getting at the actual financial conâ€" dition of the company. and the stateâ€" ment presented, with alleged reluctance. was dissppointing in its brevity, and in the fact that it bore no name. The officers also bad no report, and a motion prevailed that ‘the President and Secy. sign the Statement and that it be enâ€" dorsed on the minutes. Some objection was raised by Mr W hitton, of Hanliton. one of the new directors, at remarks made by the member of the office staff appointed to read the statement, and he demanded tha«t the statement tbe read by the proper officer, There was consiGerable discussion a" hout holding the. next meeting in Durâ€" ham, the directors to arrange with railâ€" ways as to reduced fare.

The foregoing is the substance of Mr Juckson‘s report. from which can be seéen the drift ot the expense. â€" He was fair enough to say that the directors laid the blame for the poor showing on the dredge, high price of coal, and damage by lightning, but complains either.of an apparent effort to disclose as little as possible or on having meagre information on many things. _ Mr Calâ€" dey in the discussion took a more hopeâ€" ful view of the cement situation, pointâ€" ing out that yast quantities are still being imported from Germany, and he thinks home manufacturers can easily compete with them, _ The situation «t the best is not encouraging hbut we hope the new directorate may he able. with our magnificent plant, to make a better showing. been at the meeting, and took part in the discussion as did Mr H. Parker, Mr D,;McCrie and others, Aef The Assets were : Plant, horses, &c $734.920.78, Real Estate, Marl and Clay properties $2065,2214.54, this irem includes the promotion ex penses of $250,000, cash in â€" Dorham $991.60, (Palance duae on ‘Stock subscribed $4,602.50, it Mc Cowhan explained that Mr Stanâ€" hope was getting $5000 a year as manaâ€" yer, but resigned when it was found they were losing money, _ He is now gerting $100 a month as head jof the sales department, _ Mr Cowham stated the engineer‘s 10 per cent, for construc. tion of buildings amounted to about $60,000, â€" In the item for advertising there was the expense of building the dairy building at the Toronto Exhibiâ€" ten. goonniten 4 To wages, Sacks, Coal, plaster and Clay $238,0623.54 : this smount includes wages $50,199.77, which does not include the office staff, _ The directors thought there was about 100 men employed, and thus at thes« rates the average cost per man was $502. * To coal $164.881,72." The coal alone in every harrel of cement cost consider ably over $$1,00, while many could reâ€" member the promise of the promoters that it could be made for less than 40c. Summing up be said the net loss for the year was $0,430.22. _ Thercharge of $6510,.25 for selling expenses, Wwas ratber surprising in view of the fact that a cirâ€" cular lastsummer stated that there were orders for 250,000 bbis, _ Mr Stan hope explained that they could not till orders on time and later had to put a man on the roud.
