§ SIR. CARNE RASCHI beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that the cavalry regiment recently ordered out to Cairo found on i its arrival there that the cavalry barracks were in the possession of an infantry regiment, thus necessitating the occupation of the vacant infantry barracks by i the cavalry regiment and the separation of the officers and men from their horses, to the discomfort and inconvenience of the regiment; and whether he will take such steps as will ensure that the cavalry regiment in question shall have the 'use of its own quarters at as early a date as possible.
§ MR. HALDANEThe General Officer Commanding is responsible for the distribution of the troops in the various barracks in his command. Inquiries on the point will be made.
