§ MR. HARMSWORTHI beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty, having regard to the fact that the cost of each installation of wireless telegraphy is £4,000, and that it would have been only one-tenth of that amount if Signor Marconi's invention had been accepted by the Admiralty when it was first offered by the inventor, whether he can explain why this offer was not accepted.
§ MR. ARNOLD-FORSTERNo such price has ever been paid, and no such offer as that suggested in the question can be traced at the Admiralty.
