On the establishment as approved by C.O. Despatch 132, which I had not in my mind when I wrote the minute of 26th August, the cost would be:

6 officers at $100 and over at $3 1270
10 Do. at $50 to 99 at $2 1300
18 Do. under $50 at $1 1270
$3840

34 officers at $2 each $68
$4420

I trust that whatever relief is granted, may be granted at once. The tiffin room should be cleared immediately. I can add no more.

(Signed) W.C.H. Hastings,
Postmaster General.
1st September, 1899.
