§ MR. DALY (Monaghan, South)I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that Messrs. Jones Brothers, Holloway, London, were recently convicted for selling jute goods for linen; and, whether he has taken any steps since the conviction of Messrs. Jones to prevent jute goods being sold as linen to the detriment of one of the remaining industries of Ireland?
§ THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADEI have seen a report of the case referred to. The decision is now, 659 I believe, the subject of appeal. In cases in which a false trade description is applied to linen, the existing law would seem quite adequate to protect the industry.
