§ MR. MACALEESEI beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, can he state how many times each week the Clogher Valley Tramway trains leave Caledon without waiting for the mails; is any deduction made from the subsidy received by the tramway company in consequence of their failure to carry out their contract with the Post Office; and when will the Postmaster General have the arrangements completed for restoring the post car service in the district intersected by this tramway?
§ MR. HANBURYIt is roughly estimated that the Clogher Valley train leaves Caledon without the mails about twice a week. The agreement with the company does not bind them, to wait for the mails, and the Postmaster General is therefore not entitled to make any deduction from the subsidy. No time will be lost in considering the question of substituting a car service for the railway, but it cannot yet be stated when a decision will be arrived at, or what the decision will be.
