§ Mr. LUTTRELLasked the Home Secretary whether he has received a memorial from a large number of the leading educationists of the country in support of the Cruelty to Animals Bill, designed to put down certain spurious sports; and whether, in consideration of the importance of the position and character of the memorialists, he would offer facilities should the opportunity arise, for the passage of the Bill?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI have received the memorial mentioned in the question. Speaking personally, I very much regret that I see no prospect of special facilities being accorded this Session to this excellent and sensible measure.
