Weihaiwei Government will contribute to Mr. Johnston's pension as the Transvaal will to Mr. Walter's, though in view of the difference in the pension rates of the two places Hongkong being a tropical Colony and its officers entitled to climate bonus the Weihaiwei contribution will probably be larger than that of the Transvaal.
