HC Deb 03 May 1904 vol 134 c249
* MR. MONTAGU (Huntingdonshire, Huntingdon)

I beg to ask the Postmaster-General whether his attention has been called to the fact that recently a Marconi instrument has been set up upon Newmarket racecourse for the purpose of the distribution of news; and, if so, what steps he proposes to take to put a stop to similar action in the future.

THE POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Lord STANLEY,) Lancashire, Westhoughton

My attention has been called to the fact that endeavours have been made to distribute racing results by means of wireless telegraphy and I am now in communication with the persons concerned.
