OFFICES : I, Nasmith’s Buildings, Gladstone Road. IfIHE promoters of this undertaking are [I fully impressed with the idea that the Ime has arrived for the profitable establishlent of a company to provide the Borough l-ith Gas. They are fortified in their opinion |y that of Mr. E. B. Babsons, of the Auckind Gas Co., Mr. J. R. George, of the Wellington Gas Co., and of other practical len. Some valuable statistics have also been btained by personal canvass, which concluively show that the proposed company’s nsiness will commence with a demand to the xtent of at least 10,000 cubic feet per diem ; shich will be a dividend-paying quantity. The Directors have several sites under their ionsideration, the conditions of which are - uitable water frontages for shipping, with >osition for ready access to consumers. It is proposed to erect works suitable for nanufacture of Gas from Coal, and to have ilso the small additional plant necessary for itilising the Gas developed in the manufacture of Anti-friction Grease and Paraffin from the mineral lately discovered in the South Pacific Petroleum Company’s ground, the late experiments having proved its suitability as a Gas-making material. The development of this industry from the latter material may therefore become one of great importance to the district, and should satisfactory arrangements be made with the Directors of'the South Pacific Petroleum Company, the Gas necessarily evolved from the manipulation of the Paraffin mineral can be saved to the benefit of the consumers and
