But perhaps this is, after all, the real reason why such secrecy has been maintained and insisted on. The designers of the Central Market do not care for public criticism. Again, quite natural; but why has the Governor, who is here to control the fads and fancies of the different departments, givhä ́`way and aanctioned this refusal to make public these. plans and designs, and to submit them to public criticism? Why has be appointed a sort of confidential committee, and why has Mr. Cooper, the person responsible for the plans, beer made a member of It, and asked to sit in judgment on his own design? He could give the Committee all neces Bary information without being a member.
The buildings as designed are insigni- ficant and wholly unworthy of the Colony and of the site. They would be dwarfed by the City Hall, and look mean beside the Hongkong Bank. Internally they-are-most- Inefficiently arranged, with one excep- tion. The P. W.
