HC Deb 06 February 1902 vol 102 c525
* SIR CHARLES DILKE (Gloucestershire, Forest of Dean)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether he can state what engineer officers were carried by H.M.S. "Condor."

* THE SECRETARY TO THE ADMIRALTY (Mr. ARNOLD-FORSTER,) Belfast, W.

The engines of the "Condor" were in charge of an artificer engineer with a staff of one chief engine-room artificer and two engine-room artificers. This complement is the same as that borne on all other vessels of the same class.

CAPTAIN NORTON

Are we to understand that there was no Engineer?

* MR. ARNOLD-FORSTER

There is no Engineer on board any vessel of this class.
