2. As Inspector Kelly was in receipt of a larger salary on the Railway than when employed in the Sanitary Department, I do not consider that he is entitled to any consideration, and have decided that he shall be paid what is due to him in respect of that portion of the term of his suspension during which he was unemploy-ed and have confirmed his dismissal.
