The officer to whom the heaviest amount of blame must be at- tributed is unquestionably Mr. Mitchell Innes, and, unfortunately, this officer has not improved his position by the tone and temper, of his defence." The 2,54Secretary of State finds that Kir Mit-

Therefore, Mr Mitobell Innes having failed to bring oven ordinary intelligenes to bear upon the discharge of his duties Gs Colonial Treasurer, the Secretary of State tuorks his sense of the Colonial Treasurer's shortcomings by inposing ¦'s find of $1,000 and passing a severe censure upon him. It is also stated that as Mr Mitobell Ingesh not justified his election for the bondship of a department in Hongkong' it will be necessary for the Secretary of State to
