MR. PICKERSGILL (Bethnal Green, S.W.)

asked Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, How the modification of the Cart Tax, which he has announced, will effect his previous Estimate of £63,500 as the produce of the impost in the Metropolis?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. GOSCHEN) (St. George's, Hanover Square)

I anticipate that it will effect a reduction of £17,000 in my previous Estimate.
