§ MR. HARWOOD (Bolton)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether the Boer prisoners of war at Cape Town are kept confined on board ship; and, if so, whether such treatment is the same as that which it is reported is being accorded to the British prisoners at Pretoria.
§ * MR. WYNDHAMWe were informed on the 22nd of January that the Boer prisoners are no longer to be confined on board ship. It is obvious that while they were on board ship the conditions of their imprisonment could not be the same as those under which the British prisoners at Pretoria are confined.
