We publish in another column the report, undated, but purporting to have been signed some time in April, of the Committee appointed to Inquire Into and report on the Colonial Medical Depart- ment.

There is not a syllable in the report that indicated the least desire on the part of the Committee to abolish the Sanitary Board or to interfere with its functions or constitution in any way. There was only one witness who spoke against it, the Superintendent of the Civil Hospital, who, not unnaturally, succeeding the Colonial Surgean In his functions and duties would like to centre in himself all medical authority and all sanitary control of every description.

However, their report is, so far as it goes, a valuable one. They recommend, In answer to question one, the abolition of the post of Colonial Surgeon; the substitu- tion of the Superintendent of the Civil. Hospital as the head of the Medical Department; the addition of another Assistant Superintendent to the staff of the Civil Hospital; the appointment of a Health Officer of the Port, who shall be wholly and entirely at the service of the Government, and available at all times for general medical duties under the orders of the Superintendent; the appoint- ment of a competent medical man to the Gaol to be also in charge of the Tung Wah Hospital, and to be available at all times for medical work under the orders of the principal Medical Officer. They con- sider these five men an amply sufficient medical staff for the ordinary requirements of the Colony, allowing for sickness or absence on leave of not more than one of the members at a time.

The Committee place the Health Officer under the Board, as an Officer of the Board and its principal adviser (not as a wholly Independent of the medical depart- ment and they define his position and duiles by reference to the practice in Bradford and London, where he is required to "perform all the duties imposed upon hịm" by any bye-laws or regulations of the Sanitary Authority of Bradford to attend the office of the Sanitary Authority and required to perform all duties legally imposed o

We have also been honoured with a copy of the Supplementary Report of the Retrenchment Committee, on the Public Works Department whose original report, undated, was laid on the Counell table on the 17th September, 1894, At page VIII of that report the Com- mittee stated that they had examined Mr. Tooxex and Mr. Matsch, both officers of the Public Works Department, and that, in the absence of Mr. Coopky and Mr. CHATHAK, the heads ofthe Department, they deemed it advisable to postpone their Inquiry into that important branch of the service until the return of these gentlemen to the colony, especially in view of the fact that Mr. Mazsh and Mr. Tookes were diametrically opposed to each other in opinion on all points. The Inquiry was оп the 22nd of apparently resumed November last. Mr. CHATHAM was not examined, and Mr. Coopez would appear to have given the Committee about two hours of his valuable time. No one else was called, either in the Department or outside of it, and the Committee report-- risum &meates amici? -that they, the members of the Committee, are of opinion that, con- sidering the size of the island and the nature and extent of the public works carried on in the Colony, the staff of the department is far too great and expensive, but that, as Mr. COOPER says it is not, there is an end of the question, and they have no recom- mendations to offer.
