HC Deb 02 December 1884 vol 294 c439
SIR H. DRUMMOND WOLFF

asked the Secretary to the Admiralty, Whether the Board are prepared to consider the claims of the leading stokers of the Royal Navy to a higher scale of payment?

MR. CAINE

No Memorial relating to the claims of leading stokers appears to have been received at the Admiralty. I am informed that there is no difficulty in obtaining suitable candidates on the existing terms for the rating of leading stokers.
