§ MR. HENNIKER HEATONI beg to ask the Representative of the Postmaster General, whether he is aware that 154 French subjects are enabled by their Government to send telegraphic money orders to Egypt; and, whether he intends to take steps for enabling British subjects to enjoy a similar privilege.
The hon. MEMBER further asked whether telegraphic money orders are exchanged between France and Germany and other of the great Continental States; and, whether such orders can be sent from the United Kingdom to France and the Continent generally; if not, whether arrangements will be made for exchanging them with the chief trading countries of Europe.
§ MR. HANBURYIt is the case that telegraphic money orders are exchanged between France and Egypt and also between France and Germany and other Continental States. The subject of establishing a system of the kind between the United Kingdom and Continental countries is one which will, no doubt, come under the consideration of the Government.
