§ COLONEL ALEXANDERasked the Secretary of State for War, Why the Report of the Inspector General of Recruiting, which had been promised for that day, and which, according to The Times of that morning, had just been issued, was not in the hands of Members; also, when the Tel-el-Kebir Return, ordered on the 6th of November, 1882, would be laid on the Table of the House?
THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTON, in reply, said, that he had been assured that the Report of the Inspector General of Recruiting would have been in the hands of Members that day; but he had not yet ascertained the cause of the delay. He could not reply as to the Tel-el-Kebir Return.
