§ Mr. AMMONasked the Secretary of State for War how many deserters have been advertised for in the "Police Gazette" since the beginning of the War; how many have been apprehended by the civil police; and what amount has been paid in rewards?
§ Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANSThis information could only be obtained by searching through the "Police Gazette" and the accounts for the past seven or eight years, and I regret that, owing to the present need for economy, I cannot see my way to authorise the undertaking of this laborious search.
