Why 2914 April, 1998

Lordship's consideration a of a report by the Captain Luperintendent of Police the subject of the appointment of a separate Storekeeper for the Police department.

2.

In

my despatch- W. 402 of the 15th

the

" of December 600 98% 4 last I deprecated the proposed appointment on the ground of the additional expenditure

which it involved. That

objection has now been met in great part by the

Captain

Captain Auperintendent's ~ proposal to make the appointment contingent o reducing the strength

his

on

of the force by one sergeant

$720 a year;

on

and the

reasons which he has

urged for appointing

a

separate storekeeper who_ should also have charge of

the barracks and

give instruction in drill and

to me

musketry appear deserving of consideration.
