At the closo : of the inquiry they handed the Following letter 1 to the coroner Sir—lnquest on the body of Mrs Foster. A case of collision between tram and 'bus. It has come to our knowledge that the remuneration of our coroner is Gxed by law at one guinea per in(quest, and this whether the injquiry lasts 0110 day. or several days. The present inquiry has in all ooqupied 10J days. We desire respectfully to intimate to you our conviction that now. that the coroners are paid £1 Is per inquest, instead of £2 2s as formerly, a fee of not less that £1 Is pen day for each day that an inquest lasts should be ttic lower rate at which a coroner should bo paid. In this present intjuest each of tho jurymen is paid at the raita of 8s per Say for 10.J days, while the coroner is only entitled to 21s for the whole days occupied.—,N UeraisJi
