You will observe that the conditions as
to premia were somewhat altered from what was set down in the
Particulars of Competition which accompanied Sir Willien Gascoigne's Despatch No. 299 of the 9th. of July, 1902.
In those particulars it was stated that a
premium of $2,000 would be offered for the successful design

in order of merit. It was added, under the heading "Ownership
of plans etc." that in the event of the author of the premiated
design being engaged to carry out the work under the general
control of the Governor, the premium would merge in the Commis- sion to be paid, which will be 5 per centum upon the gross ex- penditure on the building including all permanent fittings
but exclusive of shipping freight and Agent's charges on
material obtained from Great Britain, and of all monies paid THE RIGHT HONOURABLE
