HC Deb 18 February 1884 vol 284 cc1204-5

SIR WALTER B. BARTTELOT

I beg to ask the Prime Minister, or if he cannot answer it now I will put the Question to-morrow, Whether there is any truth in the rumour that the Egyptian Army is to be disbanded?

MR. GLADSTONE

There is no truth in that report, as far as we are aware.
