§ MR. DARLINGI beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he has any information as to the statement in to-day's papers to the effect that a ship purporting to fly the Republican flag of Ireland was saluted yesterday in New York Harbour by the American ships there assembled?
§ MR. W. E. GLADSTONEWill the hon. and learned Member kindly place the question upon the Paper so that I may make inquiry? I am entirely in ignorance upon the matter.
§ MR. DARLINGI will put the question down for Monday.
