HC Deb 24 February 1887 vol 311 c484
MR. SEXTON (Belfast, W.)

I wish to ask the right hon Gentleman the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland a Question, of which I have given him private Notice—namely, Whether he can give the House any confirmation of the matter of a telegram just received from Dublin, to the effect that the jury at the State Trials have disagreed and been discharged, and that they were equally divided?

THE CHIEF SECRETARY (Sir MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH) (Bristol, W.)

I think the "Dublin State Trials" is not a strictly correct description. I have received no confirmation of that telegram.
