HARBOUR BOARD CONFERENCE AND THE GOVERNMENT.
Sir,— May I point out that the Harbour Board Conferenco hare been belaboring the Government -.most unfairly, re, breaking their own regulations, in connection .with the hand- ; ling 'of' 'explosi'yosj/'and'i' ; it -appears .remarkable, that Clause No.' 49 of.the.General Earbour Regulations, given under'tho.band of HJs Excellency the Governor by an Ordor-in-Coiincil, was "overlooked by the Conference: " Nothing contained in these regulations shall be deemed to apply to any ship, boat, or other iiroporty of Her Majesty, or to any ship of war of any foreign nation, or to any gunpowder or explosives in charge-, of officers 'in : th6; servico of the Government of tho colonyi during tho performance d' -the duties of their office." ' . ' '..'■' i. . ROBERT FRASER, Lieut., R.N.R. - October, 24, 1907. ■ ■. ; ■.;;,;:• ':' : :\
