That despatch was crossed by Sir Henry Blake's despatch of the 11th December, in which he submitted a roheme of sterling salaries,
1. I agree to the Harbour Master's salary being used at £700 per annum rising to £30 by two trennial increments of £00; and I think that the Assistant Harbour Master might Attondant, Singapore, eis. £480 per annum be given the same salary as the Deputy Master

3. In despatches to Sir F. Swetteulata, the numbers and dates of which are noted in the margin, and of which you have no doubt already received copies from him, I have explained my views as to how far and in what way offeats who entered the service before last August should be affected by the introduction of the sterling scheme. The decision at which I have arrived

7. I have followed the system adopted in the Eastern Colonies, by classifying separately the appointments for which onders are eligible. his arrangement proved to be exceptionally difficut in the case of Hongkong, owing to the saliness of the cadat service and the fact that there are vory few appointments in the lower classes of the Government service, as classified by Sir H. Blake, which are usually held by adeta. I have, in fact, Leon compelled to abandou any attempt to arrange the cadet posts into the same, number of classes us in the Straits Settlements, and 1 have, instead, divided them into three classes, which are mate to cover the same range of laries as in the Straits Settlements by providing in each class more increments and isrger in amount.
8. I propose, in short, that the cadet service shall be classified as follows:--
Class I.

whether or not these positions should hereafter be filled by officers selected from this country. No delimite proposal to that effect has as yet been subreitted.
18. As regards the Police appointments, I prop se to adopt for Hongkong cutes similar mutatis mutualis to those which i have ap proved for tho Straits Settlements, viz :—
On Chief Inspector, £300 par unuum rising to £330 by triepuls incrments of £30,
Une Chief Inspector, £240 per annum rising to £300 by similar increment,
First Class Inspectors, £220 per annum rising to £240 after three years' service in that grade.
Second Class Inspectors, 180 a year. Third Class Inspectors, £170 a year. Songeants; £140 per acum rising by triennial inscrements of £10 to £160.
Lance Sergeants, £120 per annum rising after three years' service in that grade to £130.—
Constables, £100 per annum rising to £120 by
trienaiul increments of £10.
7.In the case of the Inspectors of Nuisances I have caused their salaries to be set down in the scheme at approximately the equivalents of their salaries in dollars with double exchange compensation, with their house allowances of
antaly . to the dollar. I consider these 830 per zenua thrown inte salary at approxi. - salaries large enough. The rates of increment have been altered from 210 to 25 a year in the case of the members of the Sanitary, staff below the rank of Senior Inpector as the increments they at prosent enjoy are annual ones.
A note has been adet that offers who occupy free quarters (as some of these mon do, and as more of them horafter may) will draw 132 a year less
S. In the case of the Principal Warder, Victoria Gol. I have made the £6 incrementa aacual instead of triennial. With triennial increments it would tako 19 years to reach the maximum.
