AUDIT OFFICE,
HONGKONG, 4th April, 1887.
EXPLANATORY REMARKS,
More pensioners than contemplated, and the low rate of Exchange. Less payment for passage than was estimated. The vote for purchase of Steam-Tug and Market in Hunghòm not used in 1886, but, on the other hand, supplementary votes for Pedder's Wharf and Retaining Wall at the Hospital were asked; hence the difference. Saving in the vote for re-construction of Streets in the Native Quarter, Road and Street Contingencies, &c. More payments than estimated. Colonial Exhibition, Law Commission, Conservancy, Loss in Exchange, &c. Difference in Exchange at 3s 6d and the Average of 3s 3¼d. Increase of Taitam Water Works, Storm Damages, and Retaining Wall. More payments than estimated on accounts of sums already voted.Bedrich Menards
