HC Deb 18 April 1901 vol 92 c599
MR. DILLON (Mayo, E.)

I beg to ask the Colonial Secretary whether it was in consequence of, or owing to, any communication from the Colonial Office that The Times was enabled to announce the return of Sir Alfred Milner one day before any other newspaper in the United Kingdom.

MR. J. CHAMBERLAIN

No, Sir, certainly not.
