Among the Chinese the deaths from the above causes are the smallest number for the last sixteen years. The diminution is most noticeable in the bowel complaints.
I regret that I have not been able to send in this report before this but a great deal of trouble has been in making up the Tables, and the clerks had to stop work while making duplicate bills for past months by Government order.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
The Honourable W. M. DEANE, C.M.G.,
Acting Colonial Secretary.
PH. B. C. AYRES, Colonial Surgeon.
