REG? 9 DEC 09:

Government House,

Hongkong, 2nd November, 1909.

My Lord,

7234

With reference to Lord Elgin's despatch No.101

of the 22nd May, 1907, I have the honour to report that the

arrangement with regard to the Normal Kastership at Queen's

W

College recommended in Sir M. Nathan's despatch No.88 of the

57234/27

11th April 1907 and accepted somewhat relustantly by Lord Elgin

in his despatch No. 178 of the 18th August 1907 has given rise

8/58319/67

to considerable difficulties since it came into effect.

2.

Kr. E. Ralph's salary as a Senior Master at

Queen's Qollege was $2,400 rising to $3,000, and at the end of

the year 1907 he was on his maximun. As from the lat January,

1908, the allowance of $600 per annum to the normal master w&B

I

amalgamated with the salary of the officer holding that post,

..

and Mr. Ralphs therefore drew at the rate of $3,600 per annum.

But the dollar salary of the 2nd Master at Queen's College was

$5,500 rising to $4,200 per annum. Therefore Mr. Ralphs being

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE

&C.

THE EARL OF OREWE,
