MR. GILHOOLY (Cork, W.)

asked the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether, in view of the fact that sixty local boat-owners residing at Baltimore purpose continuing the herring fishery up to the 1st of November, the mail car, which at present carries the mails between Skibbereen and Baltimore for a limited time, will be employed permanently for that purpose?

THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. HENRY H. FOWLER) (Wolverhampton, E.)

The mail car referred to by the hon. Member is now running, and the Postmaster General will give instructions for it to be maintained so long as the herring fishery may be continued.
