THIS COMPANY is being formed for the
purpose of acquiring and developing 70 more (Buy 12 acres of land in the Paoshan District of Shanghai, on the North side of the International Settlement, consisting of three lots of well-raised land, dotailed
particulars of which are contained in the aunexet Report and Estimates prepared by Mr. A. E. Algar, Architect, of Shangbai.
The properties are exceptionally well situated as regards their favourable position for Euro. pean residences; the Estate flanks the Now Park on three frontages, over which it has a clear and uninterrupted view. the Railway forming on. the west a complete barrier against any eneronekment by native dwellings from that direction. The distance from the Boochow Creak to the Estates is under two miles, in an almost direct line along the North Szochnen Road, and the tramway system links up the
eighbourhond with the Settlamputs..
This neigbourhood is fast becoming a larga and populated suburb, a significant fact being. that whoress five years ago there were only feur European, houses in the vicinity, there are now nearly one hundred. The district is also Topsidered to be cooler in summer than the Bubbling. Well Road, as the breeze comes direct from the river and is not interrupted by the vast masses of houses in the Settlement. Not only is it well sitasted for European residences, but being adjacent to the Park, now being rapidly completed, it seeme probabis that with cheap team communication, low rontale and attractive surroundiaga, many occupants of

therefore frequent the Park without having to traverse the crowded streets; in fartherance of this object, the Directors are prepared to consider any suggestions while building, s regards planning rooms, that any prospective tenant may bring to their notine.
Attention is also directed to the advantages. of residences adjoining the new Park, and the Rifle Range. The Pablie Berimming Bath, Cricket, Football, Lawn Tennis Grounds and
Bowling Greens in such close proximity, should Litract considerable support, especially as in course of a few years, many of the lawns will be shaded by trees, a feature which is impossible on the Race Course,
It is proposed to gradually develop the Estates, recting suitable and up-to-date residences, with gas, electric light, and water laid on, and which can be let at moderate rentals to suit various incomea; owing to the
proximity of the New Park, it will not be necessary to provide all bousca with largo gardens, which add so mach to the expense of most evantry houses, though most of them will hare some ground attached, and, in order to space, terraces will be put up as well economize os semi-detached villas.
The price to be paid for the whole Estate is Ths. 178,000, which compares. very favourably with the market rate for land in the neighbour
hood, not so welí situated.
The Directors are advised that the Estate
could carry 82 houses, together with stabling, the proposed rentals varying from Tis 60 to Te. 75 par month, according to size and aspect, Thess rentals, which are based on a conservative estimate, should be suffleient to evanre a dividend of not less than 7 per cent per annum.
In order to secure a return to favestore as diminish Working as possible Bud Expenses, Mesars Illert & Co. have agreed to make a nominal charge for Management, of Tis. 1,200 per annum, until a Dividend has bean declared, when it is proposed to incream the Annual Managemont Charge to Tis. 3,000, and this eam will be submitted for the approval of the Shareholders in General Meeting.
