§ Mr. MIDDLEMOREasked the First Lord of the Admiralty what torpedo-boat destroyers had been removed from the effective list since the last issue of the Dilke Return; and what were the reasons for such removal?
§ Mr. McKENNA"Hornet," sold—condemned; "Ferret," condemned, and appropriated to be used for gunnery experiments; "Starfish" and "Sturgeon," not considered worth the expense of repair; "Lee" and "Blackwater," lost.
§ Mr. MIDDLEMORECan the right hon. Gentleman inform me what is the condition of the forty-one destroyers built in the same year as the "Starfish"?
§ Mr. McKENNAI do not think that arises out of the question put by the hon. Member.
