SIR-I have the honour to forward, for the information of His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government, the Annual Report on the working of the Tung Wah Hospital for 1903.

The Staff-There have been no changes in the Staff. Dr. JEU HAWK, the Resident Surgeon, was detached temporarily for plague duty at Kennedy Town Hospital from June 1st to August 31st. Mr. LEUNG CHIK FAN and Mr. MA LUK acted for him.
The Admissions. A total of 2,457 patients were admitted during the year- 2,112 males and 345 females. This number added to the number resident on January 1st-129-gives a total number of 2,586 under treatment.
Of these, 1,569 were discharged, and 889 died, leaving under treatment on January 1st, 1,904, 128 patients.
During the past eleven years the admissions have been as follows:-
