SIR HENRY TYLER (Great Yarmouth)

asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether his attention has been called to the recent experiments reported to have been carried out in America, with the Pneumatic Dynamite Gun; and, whether any tests of it had been made, or are in contemplation, in this country?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE (Mr. E. STANHOPE) (Lincolnshire, Horncastle)

The experiments in America have been carefully considered by the Ordnance Committee, and I hope it will be possible to carry out further experiments with this gun in this country in the Metropolis.
