§ BARON HENRY DE WORMSasked the Postmaster General, Whether he has received a Petition from the Third Class Metropolitan Clerks attached to the Woolwich District Telegraph Office claiming to be reinstated in the Metropolitan District, they having been transferred against their wish to the Provincial District with reduced pay; and, whether he will state what decision, if any, has been arrived at on this claim?
§ MR. FAWCETT, in reply, said, that the Petition to which the hon. Member referred was only received a few days ago, and it was now under his consideration, and as soon as he had come to a decision upon it he would communicate it to the telegraphists who had memorialized.
