Coode, Son & Mathews, should be obtained with regard to it and that the Admiralty should be ap. proached with a view to reconsidering the de- cision they had arrived at at the end of 1902, not to contribute towards a re-survey of the harbour.

The Consulting Engineer's report was re- [789ferred to Mr. Boulton who on further evidence having become available as to the datum used in the preparation of the 1841 chart entirely concurred in eliminating the soundings shown on it from future consideration of the subject. He reverted to the opinion he had held before an examination of the 1841 chart that the ex- tent of shoaling in the harbour since the estab lishment of the Colony had been very small. The comparison of soundings of Hung Hom Bay that, since the submission of his original report, had been taken for the Colonial Gove erament in January, 1905, by Commander J. D'Arcy, R. N., with the soundings of 1887 had ndeed shown a deepening in this small part of THERAPION N(2 the harbour,
