§ MR. SLOAN () Belfast, S.I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether he will consider the advisability of putting a telegraph office in the Donegal Street Post Office, Belfast, for the convenience of the district.
§ MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAINI find that my predecessor considered this matter more than once, and came to the conclusion that he would not be justified in establishing a telegraph office at Donegal Street, because the head post office of Belfast was within a quarter of 509 a mile in one direction, and there were three other offices at a distance but little greater in other directions. I see no reason for departing from that decision.
