HC Deb 23 January 1902 vol 101 c689
MR. STUART SAMUEL (Tower Hamlets, Whitechapel)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if his attention has been called to the recent trial of Henry Kahn, a Jew, accused of breaking a window and some glass, before the Recorder of Dublin and a jury, and to the terms of reproach in which the Recorder addressed the prisoner before the jury had rendered its verdict; and will he state what notice, if any, the Government have taken of such language.

MR. WYNDHAM

I have seen what purports to be a report of the Recorder's observations in the case referred to, but how far it actually describes his language I am unable to say. In any case, the matter is not one in which the Executive can properly take any action.

MR. T. M. HEALY

In view of the constant outrages on shop keepers in Dublin by this class of maniacs, does the right hon. Gentleman intend to do anything to repress this conduct?

* MR. SPEAKER

Order, order! Notice must be given of that Question.
