FREDERICK STEWART,

Acting Colonial Secretary

MINUTE BY HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR ON THE POLICE REPORT OF THE BURGLARY IN THE CAINE ROAD ON THE NIGHT OF THE 29TH OF AUGUST.

I should be glad to get from the Captain Superintendent a Report of the Night Duties of the Police Force, specifying the beats, number of men, &c., at the present date, and a Statement showing the similar facts of both this time last year, and this time in 1876.

J. POPE HENNESSY,

Governor.

1st September, 1878.

REPORT CALLED FOR BY HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR ON THE NIGHT DUTIES OF THE POLICE.

I have the honour to forward a Return of the Night Duties of the Police. The time from 6 P.M. of 30th August to 6 A.M. of 31st August has been taken as a sample.

2. I enclose a Comparative Return of same period for three years for the Central District. Other Districts had similar duties and men in these three years.

3. I enclose the Central District Duty Books for August, 1876, 1877, and a copy of the 12 hours above alluded to in 1878, as the original book is in use.

4. I also forward the rough Returns for 10th August of the men in the Force, together with a fair abstract of the same.

5. The Beat Book enclosed has virtually been unaltered since 1874. It will be observed that large as those beats are, I have rarely enough men to fill them all, in which case one man takes charge of two beats.

W. M. DEANE,

Captain Superintendent of Police.

3rd September, 1878.

MINUTE BY HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR.

I have read these papers carefully, but would be glad to see the Comparative Returns from the other Districts made in a similar form to the Returns of the Central District.
