HC Deb 13 February 1902 vol 102 c1253
MR. ALFRED DAVIES

I beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will explain to the House his reason for classing as "capital" royalties derived from minerals.

SIR M. HICKS BEACH

The question of Royalties is a matter of argument, which I must decline to discuss by way of Question and answer across the floor of the House.
