IPIROSIPECTTTS- TIlE Company is formed to acquire the well-known business of Mr. William Elmore, carried on at 91, ackfriars Road, S.E., and the business now being rr'ed on under the of c<The Electrolytic Com at Charlotte Street, Blackfriais, S.E., and 16, 'al"'il, il'Orleans,PAlais Royal, Paris, with the extensive and valuable Dynamo-Electric Machine, Electric En- steering, and Electro-Depositing Works, at Charlotte tr«et, Blackfriars; together with the Furnaces for fass and Nickel Castings, at 91, Blackfriars Road, S.E., the Plant, Stock-in-Trade, Goodwill, and all Patent ^hts, an(j Licenses belonging to the Vendors in con- ation with the said businesses. The Businesses at 91, Blackfriars Road, and at Char- lotte Street, were established respectively by Mr. William Elmore, and Mr. Shackleton Hallett. Tbe kusinesa of Mr. William Elmore consists principally in fche manufacture and supply of Dynamo-Electric Machines and outfits for Electrolytic processes as applied to a Vanety of profitable Industrial purposes. The Works at Charlotte Street, and 91, Blackfriars ?0ad comprise —First, a complete Engineering Estab- llsWnt, equipped with all the necessary Machinery and Tools of the latest and most improved make for the Manufacture of Dynamo-Electric Machines and Elec- trip-al Appliances. Secondly, an Extensive Establishment the Electro Deposition of Gold, Silver, Copper, ■Niekel, Tjn< Rrass, and other Metals, on Iron, Steel or other Surfaces together with the necessary Appliances J^r ^rinding, Polishing, and Burnishing Metals. Thirdly, 'ectileal and Chemical Laboratories fitted with all re(luisite appiiance8 for the business. Fourthly, Furnaccs f°L^icktl an(1 Bra9S Castings. ^he establishment at Paris comprises Offices and ho^l00tU8 situate at No. 16, Galerie d'Orleans, Palais ^oyal, and a Factory for the manufacture of Dynamo ^achines, and for metal plating purposes, situate at No. ù, Cour de Rohan, Boulevard St. Germain. The metal depositing works which were originally *8tablished for the purpose of demonstrating the power aod capabilities of the Dynamo Machines have proved a important and profitable branch of the business. leces of machinery of large seize, such as Hydraulic 8crew propellers, cylinder covers of marine engines c-i can be coated with metal at these woiks. The of customers on the books is now very large and i*aily increasing. Dynamo-Electric Machines of great power, constructed „ the Charlotte Street Works are now in actual illations at the MorfaCopperWorksof Messrs. Williams, «,°?ter & Co ,of Swansea, producing "conductivity" or Co ectt-olytic" copper by Mr. Elmore's process. The ?°Pper thus ebtained is chemically pure, and, when it is in mind that the presence of one-fifth per cent. f H'on in conner depreciates its conductivity by 25 per an-l a^nere trace of arsenic, by 66 per cent., and the denand for this Electrolytic" copper far e*ceeds the present means of supply, and is daily in- ?teasina the immense importance of this branch of the alone will be fully realized. Very ^tensive kt(^ers are already in negotiation, and a large an pio a can safely be relied upon in this department a* ,111011S other purposes for which machines and being supplied by the Charlotte Street orks may be 0.eQti°ned the Electro deposition of Copper upon Steel 1. *ron Wire for Telephonic or Telegraphic uses.

It may also be mentioned that a Silver Medal was awarded at the Crystal Palace Electric Exhibition, 1881-2 to Mr. Elmore for his Patent Dynamo Electric Machines. The large and continued increase in the number and amount of orders for machines and outfits, and also in the Metal Plating Department has rendered necessary a considerable addition to the existing works. With the view to secure the benefit of country prices for labour, fuel, and other charges, it has been decided to erect Engineering Works for the construction of Dynamo Electric Machines and appliances at Swansea, the centre of the important metallurgical and tinplate industries of Sonth Wales. A desirable site has been chosen, and the works will be pushed on with all expedition on completion of the necessary contracts. The business which the Company also requires at Paris and on the Continent is of considerable importance. It is proposed to supplement the factory at the Cour de Rohan by additional works at an estimated cost of £ 5,000 with this expenditure on the French establishment the vendors confidently anticipate being able at an early date, out of the moneys derivable from the working or sale of the French business, and their Foreign Patents, to obtain very considerable profits for the Parent Company. In addition to the Engineering Works, it is proposed to add the following profitable departments to those now in active operation. (a) A department for the manufacture of materials n> i APRl,cab!e to Electro Platers' Outfits. c of Arc ud Lamps. (c) A Department for the manufacture (undei- Mr. Hallett's Patents.) of Chemicany pare Carbons. (d) A Department for Electro-Coppering Steel Wire for Telephonic arid other pumose, • V Drawing and Covering Conductivity Copper and other Wire.

The B Shares are not to rank for dividend until the A or preference shares have received a cumulative preference dividend of seven per cent. per annum.
