The PRIME MINISTER

I beg to move, "That this House do now adjourn "—

Mr. PRINGLE

On a point of Order. I desire to ask your ruling whether, when the Sitting of this House goes beyond Eleven o'Clock, the House does not stand adjourned without Question put?

Mr. SPEAKER

If the Question be put and objection be taken, the Motion cannot be proceeded with.

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That this House do now adjourn until Tuesday, 12th February."—[The Prime Minister.]

Mr. HOGGE

I object!

It being after Half-past Eleven o'Clock, and objection being taken to further proceeding, Mr. SPEAKER Adjourned the House, without Question put, pursuant to the Standing Order.

Adjourned accordingly at Nineteen Minutes before Twelve o'Clock.
