I gave the noaoar to reconnead for your favour-

able consideration the case of ar.Leung Tsau, Chinese Clerk and

Shroff in the Department of the Supreme Court, with a view to an

increase of dis salary.

2.

As ár.Leung's present salary is $60 a nouta

it was impossible to loclade nis aane in the list of the Colaese

officers who benefited by the revised scale of salaries sanctioned

in your despatcn 30.43 of the 13 ta. February, 1900.

.1 as of opinion,nowever, that dr.beung's case

is one deserving of special treat eat. de pas ceen 19 years in the

Governaeat service, and is an efficient clerk and trustwortoy saroff.

He nas nad no increase of salary for the past 16 years, and tos

Registrar of the Supreme Court strongly recommends that nis present

clains be recognised.

%.

I have therefore the bonour to recommend that

Ar.beung Tsau's salary, woico is at present $600 per annum, be 10-

creased to 4720, and that the increase be granted from the ist. of

January sext.
