Order for Second Reading read.

Motion made, and Question proposed "That the Bill be now read a second time."—(Sir Charles Forster.)

MR. T. H. BOLTON (St. Pancras, N.)

I beg to move the adjournment of the debate.

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Debate be now adjourned."—(Mr. T. H. Bolton.)

THE CHAIRMAN OF WAYS AND MEANS (Mr. COURTNEY) (Cornwall, Bodmin)

I hope the hon. Member will not press that Motion. The question is precisely the same as that which was raised in regard to the other Bill.

MR. T. H. BOLTON

Well, in deference to the evident sense of the House, I will withdraw the Motion, on the understanding that when a proposal is made for referring this Tramway Question to a Select Committee for consideration, I shall have the advantage of the support of the hon. Gentleman.

Motion, by leave, withdrawn.

Original Question put.

Bill read a second time, and committed.
