§ MR. GILHOOLY (Cork County, W.)I beg to ask the Postmaster - General whether he is aware that the mid-day mail for Baltimore arriving at Skibbereen is detained there sixteen hours, though a train arrives at 2.34 p.m. each day at Baltimore by which that mail could be sent, and that there is only one outward mail at 5.25 p.m. from Baltimore; and, 263 if so, whether, in view of the importance of Baltimore as a fishing station, he will give better postal arrangements.
LORD STANLEYInquiries have been instituted on the question of affording a second post at Baltimore, and an answer shall be sent to the hon. Member as soon as they are completed.
