India letter in the Foreign Department No, 256S-E,E,, dated Simla
the 6th July 19Q5, conveying sanction to the construction of cer-

Letter No, 160 dated jf Captain Prid/aux's report together with
1st April 1907, |
copies of five statements of accounts;
also an abstract statement prepared at the Treasury for facility
of reference, showing how the excess expenditure has been incurred.
S, As will be seen from the abstract statement, the extra ex
penditure of Es, 1745-5-0 falls under two main heads, viz, (1)
excess expenditure on worlrs covered, by estimates- Es, 369-7-0;
and (2) expenditure on works not previously estimated for Rs,
875-14-0.
With regard to (1) Captain Prideaux has explained both in his let
ter and in the foot-notes to the statements of accounts, the chief
causes which have led to the expenditure in excess of the outlay
allocated to the corresponding works in the sanctioned estimates,
the case
With regard to (2) it is no doubt/that Captain Prideaux departed
from the correct procedure in omitting to submit estimates for
A .
one three works referred to; but I hope that in the light of the
explanation given by him, the Gfovernment of India will be pleased
to condone this irregularity and to accord sanction both to the
expenditure incurred in this connection, as well as to the excess
, expej,o.LLure on ohe works covered by the estimates, aggregating
Rs, 1745-5-0,
