Officers of the Commissariat and Transport Staff and of the Ordnance Store Department at Home.

Table money is granted to the General Officer Commanding in certain large Commands to meet the expenses of necessary hospitality. The amounts, and the stations at which they are given, are detailed in the column for Table money, pp. 117,119 of the Estimates.

General Officers Commanding, who occupy unfurnished quarters, receive furniture allowance at rates varying from 11s. to 5s. 6d. a day, according to the rank of the Officers.

* The Deputy Adjutant General and Deputy Quartermaster General at Dublin receive the emoluments of a Colonel on the Staff.

Forage Allowance.—Forage allowance is governed by the average contract rates obtaining in the several military districts, plus 20 per cent, to meet the additional cost of buying retail. In these tables the calculation is made at 1s. 6d. a ration.

Stabling Allowance.—Stable allowance is granted at the rate of 9d. for the first horse, and 6d. per horse after the first.

Fuel and Light Allowance.—The rate of allowance for fuel and light depends on the district in which the Officer is serving, and varies with the season of the year and according to the number of rooms to which the Officer may be entitled. The rates shown in the tables are those for Aldershot, and are about the average for other Districts.
