HC Deb 17 April 1883 vol 278 cc417-8
DR. CAMERON

asked the Under Secretary of State for India, Whether he can inform the House as to the extent of the outbreak of glanders in the Bengal Cavalry Regiment which carried that disease to Egypt, on its voyage back, and since its return to India; and, whether it is true that an English officer and two Natives, infected during the return voyage, have died of glanders?

MR. J. K. CROSS

In answer to a Question on this subject from my hon. Friend on the 5th of March, I said that a Report had been called for from the Government of India. That Government now telegraph that their Report will be despatched by next mail. Until it is received, I am afraid I can add nothing to the information I have already given.
