During the current year Bills to the value of £109,800 have also matured, the balance outstanding at the date of this Report being thus £255,000. The renewal of the £149,800, for which Treasury Bills fell in during 1894 and 1895, has been provide~ for in Act 58 Viet. 55 _No. 41, b.ut non~ of thes~ ~ms have yet ke,~µ. issued. r!ie f,0)19wing are the ps,rticul~rs of Treasury · .(lliUs for Rev::~n,ue _deficiencies ;lUthorised .and now 9utstanding :--,- £ the year 1895: ...... 40;000 . . .. ·18_98 ...... ·...... ,...... _,: ..:,. 40,000 1897...... , ...... ,_._ ... , ... . 30,000 1898 ...... , .. ,_ ...... 45,000 1899 ...... ; ...... 50,000 1900 ...... , ...... , .. 50,000 255,000 Bills under Act 58 Viet.

A Returri is also annexed of amounts standing to the debit of certain accounts on the 31st December, 1894, and which require to be dealt with under Parliamentary sanction, or by transfer to authorised heads of expenditure.-(See Appendix .B ). UNEXPENDED CREDITS ON VOTES. There are several credits on votes which do not appear to be now required for the purposes for which the votes were originally made, or which have arisen from other· causes. It seems desirable that the Treasury Ac;counts should be cleared of these. Particulars are shown in Appendix C. DEB'l' OF THE COLONY. The permanent Debt of the Colony, as shown in the Trea~urer's Baiance Sheet, amounted on 31st December, 1894, to £7,726,464 3s. 8d., but this amount includes the sum of £312,119 10s. Id. added a second time by the inclusion in the Debt of the Million Loan floated during 1894, and which sum 1s available for the redemption of Treasury Bills maturing during the year 1895·; if this be deducted the net indebtedness would be £7,414,344 13s. 7d., as shown in the folio.wing Table:- £ s. d.

No. 40 has been floated. This includes £75,674 13s. 7d. to redeem Treasury Bills falling due during 1895 and 1896, and £305,600 to redeem Debentures maturing in 1895, 1895, and 1897. If these two amounts be deducted from the £750,000, the additional amount to add will be £368,725 6s. 5d. ; but Vil aste Lands Act Debentures to the amount of .£300 matmed on the 1st January last. The net indebtedness of the Colony at the date of this Report therefore will be, after allowing for "amounts for the redemption of Debentures and Treasury Bills, £7,782,770. The 'l'reasury Bills for £255,000 raised in aid of Revenue are not included in these figures. TuusT FUNDS MANAGED BY THE GOVERNMENT. · Public Debts Sinking Fhnd.-The balance at Credit of this Fund on 31st December, 1894, amounted to £110,962 18s. 1d., of which £110,950 was invested in Government securities and Fixed DeposiLs, £12 18s. Id. remaining in the bank at current account. The transactions of the year were as follows :- £ s. d.

The receipts of the Fun~. for. the year 1894 amounted to £25,658 15,. lld., making an aggregate sum since the establishment of the Fund in November, 1881, of .£336,780 14s. 2d., the aggregate payments having been for redemption of Debentures £203,180, and for payments of Pensions £22,637 16s. Id., or a total of' £225,817 16.~. Id., and leaving a balance of £110,962 18s. Id. as already shown. Assurance Fund under Real P·roperty Act.-The amount at credit of this Fund on 31st December, 1894, was £10,414 16s. 7d., of which £9964 3s. 8d. was invested in Government securities, and £350 in fixed deposits, the balance, .£100 12s. lld., remaining in the 'l'reasury. The following are the particulars for 1894 :- · . £ s. d.

It appears desirable that the Act should be amended so as to meet such a contingency. Post Office Savings Banlr.-The accumulated deposits of this Bank at the end of 1894 reached £99,365 5s. 3d. ( or close on .£100,000), an increase on the amount at the end of 1893 of £8302 ls. 7d. The usual particulars are appended :- £ .~. d. Deposits received in 1894 ......

Od. had accrued for interest on investments. Of the total amount, .£99,365 5s. 3d. stood· to the credit of depositors, as shown above, £2125 15s. 7d. was due to the Money Order Account, the balance, £457 16s. 7d., representing the profit which hau accrued on the year's transactions, ·and which profit has been transferred to the Consolidated Revenue according to. the usual practice. Of the £9226 16s. 5d. remaining uninvested at the end of the year, .£7000 has since been placed at fixed deposit. It is required by Section 13 of "The Post"Office Act," 45 Viet. No. 13, that all investments shall be made in Debentures, Treasury Bills, or other Government securities, and the placing of money at fixed deposit was questioned. It was explained that there were no Government securities available ; and it has been requested that an amendment of the Act he sought, in a similar way to that abo~e suggested in connection with investments of moneys of the Real Property Act Assurance Fund. Post Office ~Money Order Account.-This account has been adjusted to the 31st December, 1894, to a closer figure than it has formerly been found possible to adjust it, there being an unexplained credit balance of £1 13s. 7d. When the large number and complicated nature of the transactions is considered-the Savings Bank System and the Postal Note System being worked also th_rough this Account-and adjust ments requiring to be made with the various Colonies, as well as with England and foreign countries, the result is highly satisfactory. The amount of balance, ..£1 13s. 7d., together with £37 19s. 10d. which had accrued for void orders, follo'."ing the usual custom, have been paid into the Consolidated Revenu~. 57 JJfount Cameron Water-race Fund.-The account for maintenance and management of this Fund under Act 51 Viet. No. 28 for the year 1894 has been examined and passed. The particulars of the account are as follows :- · · £ s. d. Receipts for sale of water ......

Territorial P~lice Provident Fund.-'l'his account has been .examined to 31st December, 1894, the following tables showing the aggregate traJ1Bactions :- Superannuation Branc!t. £ s. d.

This Provide_nt Fund has now been established for 13" years, and the balance to the credit of the Superannuation Branch represents an increase of 48·4 per cent. upon the total deductions made from the pay of those members now in the Force and upon the books of the Branch. An authority of the Governor in' Council was issued in March, Hl94, suspending the. deductions from pay and consequent payment of such deductions to the Provident Fund. No additions to the Superannuation Branch from this source have therefore been made since 1893. The payments to the Reward Branch of the moiety of fines and penalties provi Fox and Dexte1· Beque.~t.~.-These accounts to 31st December, 1894, were received from the Chief Secretary's Department, examined and found correct. The capital, £4-47 4s. lld. of the Dexter Bequest, was placed at Fi_xe PUBLIC Bonrns. The Accounts of the under-mentioned Public Bodies have not yet been passed, for the reason given Clpposite each ;_ Deloraine Municipality, statement of outstanding rates required.

The Sorell Municipal Account.Y were specially inspected on 31st October last. . The balance of col lections, £60 0s. Id., was found to be unbanked, but only £20 18s. 2d. was found in the custody of the Council C~erk, who was absent. from his office through illness, the deficiency being £39 ls. lld. A report on the matter was referred to the Warden, and the balance afterwards brought to account. The Uppe1· So·rell Road Trust Account.Y were examined on the 1st November last, the Sorell Council Clerk being the Secretary of this Trust. A deficiency of cash amounting to £14 9s. 9d. was dis covered, this amount having been collected moi•e than six months previously. This was brought under the notice of the Chairman, and the cash was subsequently acco_unted for. Th~ Sorell Main Road Accounts were inspected also on the 1st November last. A sum of £4 deposited with tender ~vas not found on hand. This wasreported to the Chairman, and the Secretary, who is also the Council Clerk, stated that h.e was instructed fo retain the amount against rates payable, the· · balance to be returned to tenderer. The· Secretary pointed out that he was liable also for £7 received as a deposit on another tender. The &ordon Road 1'1-ust Accounts _were. imipected on the 18th October last, and au amount of £30 7s. 6c{. was found to be unaccounted for by the Treasurer, who is also Chairman, and who admitted having used the money fo/ his privi!te pm:po,ses. Some difficulty was experienced in obtaining a final adjustment of the deficiency, and further trouble has been caused by the Chairman in the settling of the annual accounts. This is the second time the Treasurer's cash has been found deficient, he having last year promised amendment in this respect. The G01·rf,on Fruit Board Ac<·ounts, examined on the l~th Octol;>er last, disclosed a cash deficiency of £8 18s. l½d,, this amount having been collected some years since. The Chairman, who was responsible · fo'I\ the aµ10unt, and who is also the 'Chairman of the Road Trust, subsequently paid the amount to the bank, b~t afte·r a settlement had bee·n re·peatedly applied for. Tlte Gould's Country Road Tru.Yt Account.~ were insp~cted in December last, and irregularities in the books of the Secretary and Collector discovered. The official who held these combined positions had disappeared, and a Rate Book was missing. He, however, afterwards returned, produced the Rate Book, and assisted to adjust the accounts. There was a deficiency of about £40, which was subsequently brought to account, and the Secretary resigned. Large arrears of rates were shown on the books of many of the Road '.l.'rusts, the explanation in most cases given being the prevailing depression of the times. Launceston Municipality.-Under an arrangement with'the Government, the accounts of this Munici pality are now being examined by the Audit Department,. and the Auditor-General has been appointed a Commissioner of the Sinking Fund under" The Town of Launcef!ton Loans Consolidation Act, 1886." During the inspection of .accounts it came under notice that there is a balance amounting at 31st December last to £8905' 6s. 6d. to the credit of a "Waterworks Sinking Fund" which was' not taken into account when the Loans Consolidation Act of 1886 was passed ; the amount, therefore, requires appro priating, and it appears desirable that it should be paid into the Sinking Fund under the last-mentioned Act. Section 80 of "The Launceston Water and Light Act, 181:/5," passed last Session, provides for an "Electric Light Sinkin~ Fund," which- is to be applied froni time to time to the redemption of mortgages and the restoration and improvement of works and machinery. It seems necessary that this Section should be amended so as to provide for a '' Sinking Fund " for redemptions, and a " Reserve Fund " for restoration and improvement purposes, as it is obvious that the Fund might be used entirely for works, and leave hotliing towards redemption of mortgages. · · Hobm·t 111unicipality.~This Municipality has not consented to the governmental audit of accounts for the present, but have granted the right of inspection of books and accounts for the purpose of obtaining any information required. This permis~ion has been availed of. The Auditor-Genei:al, in his capacity as 59 one of the Commissio'ners of the Hobart Corporation Sinking Fund, established under Act 43 Viet. No. 22, has brought under notice the utter inadequacy of the provision now made by.the Hobart Munici pality to form Sinking Funds required by law .for the redemption of the several loans raised,, and _the question has been referred to the Municipal Council. The sum of £600 per annum is now paid from the Municipal Fund to the Sinking Fund; but, assuming that interest on investments continuously made were effected at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum, an approximate amount of £2200 per annum should be set aside yearly to meet the legal engagements of the Corporation in connection with the redemption of their l()ans. The H onorable the Treasurer has advanced the sum of £4750 at interest to the Hobart Corpora tion for the purpose of enabling them to pay the half-yearly interest due during l\fay, 1895, on loans. in England. The Governqient have guaranteed the payment of the interest under statutory authority, hence'. the reference here to the provision made to meet Joans and interest. The Honorable the Treasurer's attention has been called to the fact that the Hobart Corporation paid £9230 15s. out of unexpended loans balances in their hands to meet interest on loans accruing due in 1894, the transaction being taken exception to by the Corporation auditors when atta_ching their certificate to the annual accounts. The calculations made wi1h regard to the amount payable to the Sinking Funds, both at Hobart and Launceston, have been based upon the assumption that the debentures issued will have a currency of fifty years. The Loans Consolidation Acts of both Municipalities, however, require amendment to make this certain, as some of the provisions in the respective Acts regulating this matter appear inconsistent with each other. · The number of Accounts of the several Local Bodies which have been examined and passed for the year are:- Rural Muncipalities ...... : 13 Road Trusts ...... 85 Main Road Boards ...... 42 Town Boards ...... 13 Marine Boards and Lighthouse Fund ...... 8 Cemetery 'l'rusts ...... 24 Water Trusts ...... _ ...... 3 Miscellaneous ...... 5 193 - ·;~' Grants-in-Aicl to Roacl Trusts a.ncl Town Boards.-The Road Trusts entitled to grants-in-aid under · Act 58 Viet. No. 26 number 28, .he amounts due to these being £2909 11s. 3d. The Town Boards entitled number 6, and the amount due is £925 4s. 2d.-or a total amount payable under the Act of £3834. 15s. 5d. Southport Village Settlement.-The scheme of this Settlement having been approved by the Governor in Council, in accordance with the provisions of Act 58 Viet. No. 24, the accounts were submitted for examination, and a claim for £454 10s. passed in accordance with the terms of the Act. The complete accounts to June 1st, 1895, have since been audited by this Department. Exclusive of the subsidy of £454 10s., the receipts in connection with the. Settlement have been £356 15s. lld., and the expenditure £318 6s. 2d., leaving a balance in hand of £38 9s. 9d. SINKING FcNns UNDER "THE LocAL Bonrns LoANs A.cT." .

As the Act requires the amounts to be invested in Government Stock, an amendment appears necessary in the direction indicated with reg-ard to the Assurance Fund under the Real Property Act and the Post Office Sayings Bank Account. The Sinking Fund in connection with the Campbell Town Water Trust Loan has not hitherto been managed by the Treasury : this, however, will probably be dealt with by the Treasury in future. · 60 . Lo..lNS UNDER "THE LocAL PUBLIC, WoRKS ;LoANs -AcT, 1890." . · The interest on the amount of Loans has, with one exception, ~een paid to Treasury by the respective Local Bodies for whom the Loans have been raised under the above Act, and 1 per cent.. thereof has been . carried to the various Sinking Funds in accordance with the Act.

No. 53, for the Latrobe Water Trust, only £8000 has been drawn, and £200 has this year been returned by that Trust to the 'l'reasury, thus leaving £2200 balance <:m the _Treasury books. In addition to th_is amount, .£3000 was raise,d for the Glenorchy Water Trust in excess of the amount required, and £400 of the remainder has not been drawn by this Trust. There is thus a total balance of £5600 on hand of this Loan whi~h requires to be dealt with under Par mentary sanction if no portion of the amount is available for the purposes for which it was raised. The Glenorchy Water Trust owed .£569 18s. 4d. for interest to the Treasury at the end of the year, since when the sum of £300 has been paid on account, leaving £269 18s. due to 1st January last. The amount paid in has been credited to the Consolidated Revenue, leaving nothing to credit to the Sinking Fund froin this payment. _ INSPECTION OF ACCOUNTS. During the year 1894 the Officers of 'the Department acting as .Travelling Inspectors have examined 142 accounts of Departments, 82 of Local Post Offices, and 176 of Public Bodies, or 400 in all. Some irregularities discovered during these inspections are referred to under the heading " Public Bodies." Much of the local inspec_tion work is now in arrear, owing to pressure of office d_uties, hut it is hoped this will soon -~e overtaken. · · · THE GovERNMENT SToREKEEPER's AccouNTs. . These were received, made up tot.he 30th J nne, 1894, on the 7th September last, and were specially reported upon to the Treasury _on the 18th of the same month. The accounts were ·rendered promptly, and found in good order. · . The Storekeeper's Department has since been abolished, the s"tock on hand being distributed partly to Government Institutions and Departm~nts,_ partly in suspense accounts to the Defence Department and Government Printing Department, and the remainder sold or written off, with the exception of a few .articles which are now in process of disposal. The issues to Departments, &c. have been chnrged to 1894 and 1895 votes. As a_ large quantity of stores was not worth the value originally placed upon the books much of this was written down, and a loss on the nominal values arose also upon· sales, with the result that an approximate amount of £2500 will be reguii-ed to be voted to cover loss on sales, and depreciation. The saving effected upon salaries, &c. d11e to the closing- of the Stores Department amounts to about .£030 per annum, and an additional saving of at leas_t £500 per annum will accrue in interest on stock formerly k~pt continuously on hand and not now held. under other suspense accounts. Combining these savings with those due. to new methods of purchase 1ww- in operation, and to economy in use of stores, stationery, &c., urider die supervision of the Inspector of Stores, the totpl should exceed £2000 per annum. NEW DUTIES UNDERTAKEN. Stores Accounts.-The Storekeeper, under the ne_w title of Secretary of ·the Board' of Tenders and Inspector of Stores, together with two Stores Clerks, have been trl!-nsferred to the Audit Department. Although placed on the Audit Estimates, the Secretary of the Board of Tenders take his instn1ctions from that Board and from the Minister, and arranges fur t!i'e supply a·nd distribut_ion of all stpres to the various Departmeuts, but as Inspector of Stores, the duty of passing accounts for stores, checking Government advertisements with newspapers, inspe9ting and reporting upon stores supplies in all _Offices and Institutions, examining ration and fuel and light returns, keeping records of stores supplied and nccounts passed, and all incidental woi·k ·connected with supplies of stores, is undertaken under the control of the Auditor General. The two clerks tr:msferred assist in this work, and' they are available also for all ordinary audit duties. The work in connection with the breaking up of the Stores Department- has occupied a large portion of the time of the officers now transferred, dming the 'current year, and-, to quote from a Report ~urnished to me by the Inspector of Stores, that officer has uot had a fair opportunity of proving whether his attachment to the Audit Department has been fully justified, or that the benefit of bis services has been of · practical value. A number of economies ha ~e been effected in purch_ase of stores, but as these may be du_e 61 partly to the depressed- state of the times and to relatively low prices,' the Inspector refers to savings· made at his instanc·e as .Secretary of the Tender Board upon requisitions received . during the early part. of this year, the total saving having been £246· 19s. 7d. . Income Tax.-The Chief Clerk of this Department having been sworn in as "Auditor" under "The Income Tax Act," and the Auditor-General as a Member of the. "Board of Advice,", the I11eozµe •Tax collections are subject to audit, and several questions have been raised thereon, but owing to pressui;e. of. other work and the late closing of the Income Tax Rolls, the accounts have not yet been completely· examined. Other Duties.-The audit of Corporation Accounts has been elsewhere referred to. The Accounts of the General Hospitals at Hobart and Launceston, alth_ough. transferred . to the control of the respective Boards of Management, and those of the Launceston Charitable Institution, transferred to the Launceston Benevolent Society, are still subject to examination by the Audit· Department. The examination of the Southport Village Settlement Accounts has been already referred to. QUERIES, LETTERS, &c. NOT SATISFIED. The following letter was addressed to me by Mr. Lcivett upon his retirement from the office• 0£ Auditor-General:- Audit Department, Hobm·t, 31st December, 1894~ DEAR SrR, THREE are certain unsatisfied questions, &c. remaining, before the termination of my position as Auditor General, of a special nature mentioned hereafter, which it is desirable should be brought under your notice by me now that you have been appointed a3 my successor, in order that the responsibility of the inclusion thereof in: your Report to Parliament may rest upon the right shoulders; this lett\)r is therefore written with that object in view. '. I. An advance of £500 was made by the Government to the Strahan Marine Board in February, 1893, as a. loan, to bear interest at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, and the amount · was entered to "Suspense· Account" upon th11 understanding and promise that the Treasurer would submit the matter to Parliameij.t at the following Session for consideration as to the manner in which the account should be finally adjusted;. but, as the Session of Parliament had passed, and the promise had not been fulfilled; also as the interest had not been paid, information was sought as to the intentions of the Government in respect to both matters, by letter, on 20th September last, when the Treasurer replied:-" I have had this matter under correspondence with the Board in question, and fear that the £500 must -remain in suspense for ~ome time; but as to the interest, I am watching the accounts of the Board, and hope to keep this paid regularly:" Interest has subsequently been paid to 31st December, 1893, but no arrangement appearE to have been entered into with regard to the adjustment of the loan. 2. Two cases have recently been noticed, and objection taken by this Department in respect· thereof, on the grounds that the Treasurer had acted contrary to legal provision, to which the Minister in effect st_ated that he had decided in these cases upon his own responsibility in order .to remove restrictions upon trade. In one, (a) Customs ·warrant, No. 1178, September, 1894, an importation of traveller's Eamples, valued at £101 ls., duty £20 4s. 3d. was allowed to pass upon a deposit peing left in the hands of the Chief Clerk of the Hobart Customs, to be repaid to the importer •when·,the goods s.hould be re-exported instead of-the money being paid into the revenue; in the other, (b) Launceston, Customs Warrant, No. 401, August, _1894, 8 packages, containing 250 wire coops, not valued, were allowed to pass free of duty, although liable thereto, upon a guarantee, given by A. Macdonald, that they would be re-shipped. As it seems to me very undesirable that the Government should sanction such distinct breaches of the law, as this must have a very injmfous moral effect upon importers and others, it is hoped that the objections raised will be carefully considered, and prevent future cases being similarly dealt '.Vith. . . . 3. By return~ recently furnished under arrangement with the Lands Department, ,it appears that the overdue instalments on purchases of Cro~n Lands amounted to £47,686 on 30th June last, and ·the arrears of rent of Pastoral Leases and Occupation Licences to £5650 at the same date. It is understood, however, that the Government are taking action in regard to the same, but, os the fact of similar arrears having been previously brought under n,Jtice without any very large reduction thereof having been obtained, it is very desirable that the 1iosition of these amounts at the latest possible date should be brought under the notice of Parliament. · · . . · . 4. On the 24th August last the amount due by the Mount Dundas and Zeehan Railway Cc,mpany tci the Government-£2535 13s. 5d.-was brought under the notice of the General Manager of the Tasmanian Government Railways, and information sought as to any arrangement made for adjustment of the account to which a reply has been received that the matter had been arranged by the Ministerial Head of th~ Railway Department. No particulars have, however, been given, nor has any payment to the Revenue yet been made; the matter should therefore be re-opened by early enquiry, and the posi~ion noticed in the next annual Report. · . 5. The examination of the Mount Dundas and Zeehan Railway Construction accounts was finally completed· on the 5th instant, and after a considerable amount of correspondence with the Company I '¥as. enabled .to pass the sum of £56,581 10s. lld. as properly chargeable to construction account, out of a total expenditure clnimed bi' the Company of £60,251 3s. 6d., 'the amount of the items objected to being £366U 12s. 7d. 6. Rent of Powder and other explosives iu Magazines.-On the occasion of a recent withdrawal at Hobart of a large quantity of gunpowder it was discovered that a considerable portion thereof had b8en stored for nearly three years, and· that no rent had been collected on the same in the meanwhile in con~equence of the regulations made under Act 39 Viet. No. 8, ss. 17 and 18, allowing powder, &c. to be stored for five years before the payment of rent can be legally demanded. It seems very desirable that the law should be altered in such a manner as to enable the keepers of the magazines to collect such ren~ at shorter periods. 7. The desirability of Public Officers in ~itu~tions of trust being required to give security as prp.scribed in Section 16 of Schedule 2 of the Audit Act should again be brought under the notice of the Governme1,t as soon as may be. · Soliciting your attention to the above, I remain, Dear Sir, Yours faithfully, J. W. ISRAEL, Esq., Deputy Audit~r. W. LOVETT. The.fQllowing remarks are ,made_.upon the ,subjects -referred ,to -in ]\_fr; .Lovett's letter:- -1. !Loan .£500 to Stmhan Marine Board.-The interest upon this Loan has ·been paid up to- ·-:nst December, 1894, but, as the Loan itself was made without 'legislative sanction, uhe necessary parliamentary approval should be obtained to dispose of this matter. · ·2. -(a.) :Deposits in Heu of Customs•Duty on imp01·tation of Travellers' ·samp-Zes.-A large number of importations ·of Travellers' samples, in addition to that mentioned, have taken place and landed under •the deposit-system·authorised by the Honorable the Treasurer. The particulars eince September fast,-and to the end of May, 1895, are :- . Where imported. No. of Entries. Total Values. Duty payable. Deposits received. £ s. d. £ s. d. £ JJ. d. Hobart ...... 45 2560- 5. 4 511. 8 9 508 7 0 Launceston ... 58- 2225 1 4 442 11 8 442' 7 8 ---- TOTALS ... 103 1785 6 8 _;;;;;;;;;;;;;;954 0 5 950 14 8 = __ (b.) Wire Coops passed free under --guarantee of re.~hiprnent.-Under the --Hon. the Tre.asurer's • authority,-an importation of 134 pkgs. poultry coops were -similarly-passed in free, the importer being a Mr. Johnson, Hobart; the particular~ being shown on Hobart Customs Warrant, No. 1256, September, 1894. · The objection taken to the Hon. the Treasurer's action with regard to Travellers' samples is based, in the ·first place, upon the f3:ct that it is contrary to the requirements of "The Customs A et," and, in the next place, to the obvious -risk run in so much money being retained' in the hands of the Customs officers, it being pointed out that these deposits are not even banked. The Audit Department, as the Hon. the Treasurer Wl!S remindecl, had shortly before made arrangements for the payment of the deposits on sight ·entries to the Treasury, and thus avoided the risk of.loss and inconvenience of watching cash kept on ·:{land at_ the Custom House. The course required by the law appears the safer one, namely, the payment of duty on importation, and the allowance of drawback on exportation under ''. The Drawbacks Act." In such cases as that of the free importation of coops under a guarantee, not only is this contrary to law, but there is much danger of loss to the Revenue, as in many cases it might be difficult to trace the ·importation, and upon a sale in the colony, even if known, the amount might not be recovered. Were the duty. paid there would be no risk, and the dra\vback allowed could be made on exportation under "The ·Drawbacks Act." . • · In addition ·to the above-mentioned cases, the following were admitted under authoritv of the ·Honorable the' T1'.easurer :- · .Hoba,•t .Customs TVarmnt No .. 1183, December, 189.4.---'-3 open cars and-5 loads of old timber, valued at £25, admiUed free under.,authority dated 18th December, 1894. These cars and timber formed a ·-switchback railway, and upon·:the·,i'J!·reasurer's authority being queried, he-replied to the effect thnt it was 'his opinion that it· was not the intention of ·Parliament to charge duty on such importations. The railway, h~nvever, was subsequently sold, and £3 9s. duty paid in upon a valuation of £17 5s. Boba1·t Customs Warrant, No. 1235, Janua1·y, 1895.-One fou1·-wlieeled btiggy passed free of duty as a "household effect," by authojity dated 21 st January, 1895. This was questioned upon the ground · that carriages-were-rated under the tariff, the duty payable in this case being £12, the " Drawbacks· Act" ' not even allowing a drawback-on·carriages except in the case of a visitor reshipping wiLhin six months. Photographs imported through the Post Otficc.-U nder .an authority ·dated 11 th ,T anuary, 1895, the · Post Office discontinue·d to collect duty on_ photographs imported by. private persons and "not for sale," and upon a query being raised the Hon. the 'rreasurer contended that these photographs harl no "commercial value;" _but a reference was given to Section ·7 of "'l'he Customs Duties Act, 1894," 58, Viet. No. 4, which -provides that the value of goods liable·to ad va.lorein duty shall be understood to be "the fair market value ·thereof in the principal markets of the country whence·thc same were last exported," and the Inspector of Customs endorsed _the Auditor-General's opinion, that the practice is to determine this value by accepting invoices showing the price paid for goods less any trade discount. The Hon. the Treasurer submitted cases to the Hon. the Attorney-General, who concurred with the Treasurer principally upon the ground that "if a_ commercial value were .put upon such photographs it would necessarily be so low that the dtily·would not be worth the trouble and expense of collectin11: it;" but it has been pointed out to the Hon. the Treasurer ·· that in the- cases submitted by him the value of the importation would rarely exceed 5s., and in such cases they are already admitted free under the tariff, and that it is unnecessary in most cases to fix 1he value as that is usually ·declared to elsewhere or shown on invoice; so the Attorney-General's decjsion does not apply to the cases questioned. · Treasurer!.~ Authority, 25th Ap1·il, 1895;---Lottery Apparatus, valued at £100-Entered upon pay .ment of a deposit. Treasurer's Authority, 9th .May, 1895.-Lantern Slides and Lim~light Appliances to be used at Lectures-Admitted free, and to be re-exported. _These questions, affecting the collection of Customs duty, have been dealt with at some length, with the hope that they may be carefully considered, as it will be the duty of the Auditor-General to contiµue to query all authorities which appear to be issued contrary to the intention of Parliament. '63 3. Instalments and Rent on Cror,;n Lands.-It has been arranged with the Secretan· for Lands that complete lists of overdue ins_talments on purchase of Crown Lands, .and of arrears of ;ent of Pastoral Leases and Occupa,tion Licence8 shall be prepared at the end of each year and be submitted for examination by the Audit Department. To bring this into operatiou, although lists had been furnished to 30th June last, as referred to .in Mr. Lovett's letter, fresh lists were prepared by the Lands Department made up to ,3lst December, 1894. The amounts due as shown by these returns were-for overdue instalments on pur ·chases, approximately, £57,000; a~d for arrears of Pastoral Leases and Occupation Licences, ribout £2000 ; or a total of £59,000. This amount has ·since 'been reduced by default sales, cancellation~, and payments since made, to an approximate amount of £38,000. 4 • .A.mount due by the Mount Dundai; and Zeeltan Railway Company.-The amount due, £2535 13s. 5d., on 24th August last, as shown by _Mr. Lovett's letter, had increased on 31st August to £2988 4s. 2d. No information has yet .been received as to the modified arrangement made by the Hon. the Minister of Lands and Works under Act 58 Viet. No. 18. 5. Mount Dundas and Zeehan Railn,a.y Construction Accounts.-It is noted for future information that the amount passed under the provisions of Section 5 of the Act 54 Viet. No. 54 as the cost of con ,struction of the railway was £56,581 JOs. lld. 6. Rent of Porvder, q-c. in ..1lfagazines.-It is hoped that an amendment of "The Gunpowder Act" will be made to enable collection of rent, sav at least once a year. The Law Officer3 of the Crown :advise that regulations to effect this cannot be made unless by an amendment of the law. 7. Security by Public O.fficers.-Since the end of the year the provisions of Regulation 16 under "The Audit Act" have been carried out to the extent that a large number of public officers who collect public moneys have been assured with the United Australian Mutual Insurance Company of Victoria, the aggregate amount secured being £26,415, the premiums, which have been paid by the Governme.nt, amounting to £99 ls. ld. There are, however., many collectors in Departments under the Honourable the Attorney-General, in the Railway, and other Departments requiring to be guaranteed. A letter on this. .subject. was addressed to the Hon. the Treasurer on 26th April last. OTHER QUERIES, &c. Que1:1/ 149, 16th May, 1892, raising a question as to whether Dividend Duty is not payable by certain s~ipping companies. This long-outetanding query, it is understood, is in the hands of the Law Officers. Query 236, 5th September, 1894, drawing attention to the non-payment of Duty under the Real anc: Personal Estates Duties A.et bv MesHs. J. H. Geddes and Co., the Pastoral and Finance Associl!.tion, _Limited. • Que1·y 238, 6th September, 1894, raising a similar question with regard to the Singer Manufactnrin5 Company. Letter to the Honnumble the Minister of Lands and Wrn-lis, 26th February, 1895, requesting balance ·of vouchers to discharge advances of .£400 made on 20th January, 1892, and £40 10s. lld. on ·23rd December; 1892, to the Latrobe Chamber of Commerce to meet cot-t of works in connecting Latrobe Wharf. Vouchers for .£193 17s. 3d. were submitted and passed on the 7th July, 1893, and repeated applications were made for the remainder of the vouchers. 'l'hese were received in November last only, but were not in a satisfactory state, and they were returned for completion. Contin.ued applications have since been made by the Public Works Depanment for their return, but these have not been attended to; the expenditure beyond the £193 17.•. 3d. dealt with in 1893 therefoi:e has ·uot yet been passEd. JUernorandum to the Honourable the Tre1uurer, 15th .Janua1·y, 1895, upon payment of the sum of £227 14s. 10d. to the Treasury bv. the Curator of Intestate Estates. Attention was drawn to the difficult 'position the Auditor-General is placed in by being- required to accept as correct payments made to the· Treasury without an opportunity being afforded him of verifying the Eame. This question has be~n 1·eferred to for years in the Auditor's Annual Reports, and in the Session of 1887 a Resolution was passed by both Houses of Parliament expressing the opinion of the Houses that the Curator's accounts shoulrl be· audited by the Auditor in the same manner as are all other public accounts. This Resolutic-n has never been• given effect to, and reference is once more made· ·in the hope that a finality will ·be reached either by all' amendment of the Intestate Estates A.et, ·iI:\ order to bring the accounts under the examination of the Aud-it Department, or by some other distinct expression of the wishes of Parliament.-(See Appendix D.) Qum·y 253, 2nd March, 1895, with respect to au advance of £35 made by the Agent-General to pay ·Mr. R. B. Packer's passage to the Colony.-(See Appendix E.)

No. 42 for "_ Additions Public Builp.ings-to provide acco!Ilmodation for Post and Telegraph Offices." The Hon. the Treasurer considered the items queried were properly ·chargeable to the vote referred to. · · Audito1·-General's Salary.-It is very much regretted that it should be necessary to bring under the notice of Parliament a question of a personal nature at the very outset of the Auditor-Genernl's first year of office, but from the correspondence which is submitted at the en The ordinary staff of the Audit ·Department, while reduced in numbers, has undertaken extra work in connection ,Tith examination of Income Tax Accounts, Corporation Accounts, and in other ways, and it is only by dint of much overtime auditing that the office work is kept from falling into arrear. In this, my first year of office as Auditor-General, I have much pleasure in. testifying to the loyal and cheerful manner in which th_e whole of the staff are carrying out their duties.

The Auditor-General is aware· of the nature of the correspondence which has taken place on this subject between the -Audit Department, the Treasury, and the Law Department; but the fact remains that a Resolution was passed by each House of Parliament in the Session of 1887 in the follo,ving terms :-" That, in the opinion of this House, it is undesirable for the accounts of any Public Department being exempt from the scrutiny of the Colonial Auditor, and that the accountll of the Curator of Intestate Estates, in respect of any public moneys, should in future be;audited by the Auditor in the same manner as are all other Public Accounts." See "Votes and ,Proceedings, 188.7," Legislative Council, ·-No. 40-House of Assembly, No. 63 .. · 70 It is requested that the Resolution above. quoted be given effect to, either by vouchers being produced in support of the items enumerated in thiB Return, or by the proposal of such an amendment in the Intestate Estates Act as will ensure the production of such vouchers in future. J. W. ISRAEL. 15th .Tanuar.1/, 1895. THIS document may be filed. The Hon. the Attorney-General is opposed to the change as unneces sary.

THE passage of Mr. Packer_, Jun., wa& secured by the-Agent-General in consequence of a private cablegram sent to him by me asking his aid in this direction. My intention was that Sir Robert Herbe,rt should arrange for this passage as I had done in some imtances, i.e., by indticing the Shipping Company concerned to take payment on arrival in Tasmania of Mr. Packer, Jun. The arrangement propo1ed by the Hon. Treasurer seems· to meet the requirements of the case. E. BRADD0N. 13.3. 95. FoRWARDE::> for the information of the Honourable the Treasurer, as the Honourable the Premier's reply has been returned direct to the Audit Department. As the entry of the payment of £35 for Mr. Packer'11 passage in the Treasury Books to a· Suspense Account under an arrangement for the repayment of the amount by instalments is not authorised by the provisions of the Audit Act, it will be the Auditor General's duty to make reference to the matter in hi~ Annual Report.

UNDER date 7th March ult. the Hon. the Attorney-General has issued. ari authority for the various Departments under his rontrol for the payment of the contingencies as voted in the Estimates for 1895 .. As this is contrary to the usual practice (though continued after question by the Hon. the Minister of Lands), it iH considered to be contrary to the intention of the Legislature in voting the respective amounts, and practically :;,laces the control of these votes in the hands of the Heac)s of the several Departments- . without further reference to the Minister.

No. 22, in succession to Mr. William Lovett, who retires on a Pension. · The Governor in Council has also been pleased to appoint Mr. C.harles Mitchell .to be Chief Clerk in the Audit Department, with salary at the. rate of Two hundred and fifty-four Pounds per anrium.

SIR, I HAVE the honour to acknowledge your letter of this date, conveving the information that the Governor in Council has been pleased to appoint me Auditor-General, with salary at the rate of £500 per annum, and that Mr. Chas. Mitchell has been appointed Chief Clerk in this Department-both appointments tak:ng effect from the 1st January, 1895. · I have the honour to thank the Government for my appointment, and am, &c. J. W. ISRAEL. The Honourable the Chief Secretary. Audit Depa1·tment, Hobart, ht Febr:uary, 1895. MEMO. for the Honourable the Treasurer. SIR, THE . Under-Treasurer has informed me this morning that he has been instructed by you to withhold payment of my salary for the month of January for the present. · I write thus early, as the stoppage of my salary involves the non-payment of that of the remainder of the Audit Staff, and places 1.he clerks at some inconvenience .. I have the honour to request that the Honorable the Treasurer will kindly inform me why these January payments have not been made? I have, &c. J. W. ISRAEL, Auditor-General. MEMO. for the Auditor-General. I REGRET delay in attention to this letter, and hope no one has been inconvenienced. The question involved is, should a very distinct agreement made with Ministers be set aside because L.C. has amendad a certain Bill obviously to provide £500 as the salary ?-but Ministers believe not for the special year for which there had been a very special and separate agreement made. P. 0. FYSH. 7. 2. 95. Chief Secretary's Office, Hoba1·t, llth February, 1891:,. SIR, I HAVE the honour to inform you that the Governor in Council has rescinded so much of the Authority . of the 31st December, 1894 (G 518), as refers to your appointment as Auditor-General at a salary of £500, in regard to the rate of salary, and to approve of your salary being at the rate of Four hundred and four Pounds (£404) per annum, on and from the 1st January, 1899., . The necessary authority has been forwarded to the Honorable the Treasurer. I have, &c. WM. MOORE. JoHN WILLIAM ISRAEL, Esqufre, Auditor-General. Audit Departrnent, Hobart, llth February, 1895. SIR, I HAVE the honour to acknowledge the receipt, through the Treasury, of the Memorandum of the Honourable· the Chief Secretary, noti(ving that the Governor in Conncil has rescinded so much of the authority of the 31st December, 1894, G 518, as refers to the appointment of Mr.• John William Israel as Auditor-General at a salary of £500, in regard to the rate of salary, and to approve of the salary of Mr. Israel on and from the 1st January, 1895, being at the rate of £404 per annum. Will you be good enough to obtain for my guidance as Auditor-General an opinion from the Law Officers of the Crown as to whether I can legally pass the above-mentioned salary at a less rate than that specially provided in "'l'he Audit Act Amendment Act, 1894," (58 Viet. No. 22) shall be paid? Will you also kindly inform me if the amended authority is to be understood to apply to the year 1895 only'? I have &c. J. W. ISRAEL, Auditoi·-General. Tlte Honourable the Chief Secretory. . :. ,."l 72 0/iief &c1'etary's Office, Hobart, 26th February, 1895. Sm, IN reference to your letter of the 11th instant, asking that an opinion might be obtained from the Law Officers of the Crown-;1s to passing your salary at the reduced rate of £404 per annum, I have the honour to enclose herewith c6py of a Memomndum by the Attorney-General expressing his view that you will liot in any way be acting contrary to the knowledge or wish of Parliament in authorising the payment of the lesser sum. ' The amended authoi•ity is to be undei·stood as applying to the year 1895 only. I have &c. E. N. C. BRADDON, for Chief Sec1·etary, absent • .J; W. Islt.AEL, Esq., Auditor-General. Opinion. THE Auditor-General is the servant of Parliament, and would be acting illegally if he consented to any reduction being made in his salary contrary to the knowledge and ·intention of Parliament. But in the matter of his salary for the current year Ministers announced to Parliament the arrangement they had made with him, and the House of Assembly passed a Bill fixing his salary at the sum agreed upon by him and Ministers. When the Bill reached the Legislative Council exception was taken to the insertion of any sum less than .£500 as the nominal salary attached to the office, and the sum of .£500 was inserted. But I am instructed that the Member who moved the insertion of the sum of .£500 stated that the adoption of his amendment by the Council need not interfere with any arrrangement made between Ministers and the Auditor-General in regard to his salary for the following year, and upon tha.t under s~anding the amendment was carried in thti Council, and was agreed to by the House of Assembly. In VIew of these facts I am of opinion that the Auditor-General will not be acting in any way contrary to the k!lowledge or wish of Parliament in authorising the payment to himself of the lesser sum agreed upon by himself and Ministers. It will be his duty to place this correspondence and opinion before Parliament in connection with his annual Report, and if either of the Houses of Parliament is dissatisfied with what has been done, the arrears of the larger salary can then be paid to him.
