HC Deb 25 July 1908 vol 193 cc614-5
CAPTAIN CRAIG

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he can state the number of cases brought to the notice of the police of serious offences arising out of the recent annual demonstration in Ireland in celebration of the memory of King William of Orange.

MR. BIRRELL

My attention has not been called to this matter.

CAPTAIN CRAIG

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that 300,000 loyal Irishmen took part in this demonstration?

MR. BIRRELL

I am not.
