The Hallidie Patent Cable Tramways Corporation, Limited, is formed to introduce into this country the highly successful Cable Tramway System, patented by Mr Andrew Smith Hallidie, of San Francisco, which, in the opinion of the Directors, is calculated to effect as great an improvement in the mode of propelling tramway cars, as the introduction of railways effected over the ordinary horse conveyances then in use. The Company has acquired the whole of the Patents taken out by Mr Hallidie for tlie United Kingdom, with light to all his improvements thereon. The great success that has been attaiu-.d by every tramway that has adopted the Cable System call hardly fail to ensure its general application in England, and to entirely do away with tue costly mode of propelling tramway can by horses. Unlike most inventions, whether for economising labour or cost of production, which usually have to be worked for a lei gthened period after acquisition by a company, before they can be pronounced a commer- cial success, the Cable System ha-s been proved by several years actual working on a brge and commercial scale in San F'rancisco with the following unusually pro- fitable results, as vouched by Mr Hahidie, i'lcsiuent of the Clay Street Hill Line California Street Line, San Francisco—Earning about 14 per cent, on capital. Amount paid up per share, ;Clo. Price quoted, 1;22. Sutter Stieet Line, San Fnwcioco-Earning nearly 30 per cent. on capital. £ 4 los paul up per share. Selling at £17. Geary Street Line, San Francisco—Earning about 30 per cent. Paid up per share, i;7 10s. Selling at £ 19. Clay Street Hill Line, San Francisco — Earns 20 per cent, on capital invested. Further exteusions about to be made. Chicago City Tramway Co., Chicago.—Although only a small portion of the line has been changed from horse to cable traction, the shares have already risen over 25 per cent, in value. The directors having given in this prospectus and in the appendix enclosed herewith all facts necessary t< guide investors and enable them to form a judgment a-> to the desirability of the shares of the company as an investment, only desire to. add that considering the large field of business available for the company's operations-which is not surprising when it is known that the liues in San Francisco oil the C:\Ù15 system are earning, on their cost, 20 and 30 per cent, dividends, and the shares command higli preniitims-the directors do not believe they can beconsid"red exaggerating when they state their opinion that the prospects of this cor- poration justify them in anticipating an equal amount of success, botli as to rate of dividends to be earned, and to the quotation the company's shares are likely to attain as the business of the corporation developas. With refereuce to the allotment of the shares, to obviate the inconvenience and disappointment ex- perienced by many people who at the time of the steep Grade (Higngate Hill) Tramways Company issuing their silaze capital, were unable to obtain all allotment, the directors wish to state that they purpose, so fa, as circumstances will allow, to allot the shares as follows, via 7,000 Shares to the Vendors as part payment of the purchase money. K Shares th .t direc- { 6,000 Shares among applicants who are ..mare- holders in the Steep Grade (Highgate Hill) Tramways Company, Limited, be- ing the first Company ill EÜg;d 11\1 to whom a iicenco has been granted for working the Cable System. 4,000 Shares among applicants who failed to obtain an allotment of shares in the Steep Grade (llighgate Hill) Tramway Company, and whose deposits had to be returned, who were promised that on the first allotment of the shares of the company to be formed for acquiring Haliidie's Patents, they should have special consideration. 20,000 Shares among applicants who are share- holders in any of the existing Tramway Companies, they being entitled to special consideration as interested in companies likely to be future licensee* of this <uH1pauy. 9,000 Shares among applicants from the general public. Total 50,000 Shares. Should any applicant not receive an allotment, his deposit will be returned without deduction. The following contracts have been entered into, viz. —18th December, 1832, between the English, Foreign, and Colonial Patent Cable Tramway Company (Limited1, and Henry William Shaw, on behalf of this Company; and 29th December, 1832, between the English, Foreign, and Colonial Patent Cabie Tramway Company (Limited), Henry William Shaw, and the Hallidie Patent Cable Tram ways Corporation (Limited).
