§ MR. STACPOOLEasked the Secretary of State for War, If the rule instituted by Lord Card well "that Majors as well as Lieutenant Colonels are only to hold that position in regiments for five years" is to be acted upon in the same way as owing to the rule not having been carried out, great uncertainty is felt by the junior ranks?
MR. GATHORNE HARDY,in reply, said, the Rule would, when finally settled, be laid down in the new Warrant upon Promotion and Retirement.
